HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!

A baby asked God, "They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?" God said, "Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you."

The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in heaven I don't have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy." God said, "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy."

Again the child asked, "And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don't know the language?" God said, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak."

"And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?" God said, "Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray."

"Who will protect me?" God said "Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life."

"But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore." God said, "Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you."

At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, "God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel's name."

God said, "You will simply call her, 'Mom'."

Hope everybody had a wonderful Mother's Day!!!

1. I was a thumb sucker. Awful habit I know and I just hope that Emory does not become a thumb sucker.


2. Due to the thumb sucking, I got my self electrocuted. When I was about 2 and a half I was walking around the house with my brother and we decided that we would play lock all of the doors in the house. Well my brother had the plastic kiddie kids and I had the real metal ones. So we were going through the house and locking and unlocking all of the doors in our house and I don't know what was going through my mind but I decided that I was going to stick the key in the electrical outlet and try to lock and unlock it. Well since I had been sucking my thumb, I got a pretty good shock. Scared my mom half to death.


3.I was a cheerleading in the last two years of high school.


4.The last year of cheerleading, I made the all-star team and got to travel to Australia and Hawaii.

**I am the one in the green windsuit pants.

5. Don't like guns, was not brought up around guns. Guns terrify me to death. So this the only picture of me holding gun and it will be the last one.


6. Daniel and I got to met Rupert when he was up in Springfield. Rupert was on Survivor Pearl Islands and then went back and was on Survivor All-Stars. Daniel and I are big Survivor fans.


7. And last, our first child.

HAPPY EASTER

Hope everyone had a good easter. We certainly did. Easter was also my birthday this year and tomorrow is my mom's birthday, so Vickie on Saturday cooked us dinner and we had a little birthday party/easter fun. Emory enjoyed all of the excitement of getting her baskets.

Ready for some Canoeing??
