weekend

We had a great weekend. I had a great birthday weekend. I have to tell yall that I am very proud of Ele. She is a tight-wad. We have had to take her money away (to put in her savings)from her two times because she has been carrying around almost $50 in her wallet. Well, yesterday morning she handed me an envelope that she had wrote "To:Mama From:Ele" on it, and told me Happy Birthday. Inside was a $10 bill. I almost cried. Well, tonight I sat her down, and told her I was so proud of her because she had gave me her money, but that I couldn't take it, that the thought of her giving it to me was enough. She smiled and said your welcome, then went trotting off waving her money. I then heard her say, "Yeah, I got my money!" April asked her where she got it...and she replied "It's my $10 bill from the tooth fairy." At first I said, "Oh well...what goes around, comes around !", but then I started crying, because I realized that my baby had given me the money from her only tooth (they only get that much for the first). My baby!

Speaking of baby...pray for Eme tomorrow...she starts her last year of pee-school....wait maybe you need to pray for the teacher!

God Bless!

Hey girl! Sounds like you had a great one! I hope you got our card on time! I thought it was hilarious! The picture of Ele was beautiful in her birthday card! Of course, we are playing in a four man golf scramble that day (haven't played golf all summer but it would be that day) and it doesn't start until 1pm! Ugh, just another birthday we will have to make up!! I hate missing all these parties! Love ya'll!

mouse

A girl I work with's daughter was in the Mexican resturant eating when she felt something lick and nibble her foot. She looked under the table and saw...yep you guessed it....a mouse. She screams, kicks the mouse and looks and the mouse can't run...she's broke it's leg. So the waiters got the mouse, and she got her meal for free, but she couldn't eat it! haha! Moral of the story. Wear shoes in that resturaunt, cause the food may be raw. haha! Couldn't resist! Have a great weekend! God Bless!

yesterday and today

First off HAPPY BIRTHDAY late to the Cuz! I can't believe that I didn't say it yesterday! She is being teased that she is a lot older than what she is so just for her Happy 49th Birthday Charla!!! haha! On another note it was Vic's Birthday yesterday as well and I know I blogged that her Dad was doing better, but yesterday morning in his sleep he lost his battle. I know it is true that they are better off, but it is still hard on the family. Please pray for her and Vanna, and the entire family. Aunt Shirley made it to WV to see her Dad who is holding strong. Please continue to pray for those who are sick and their families. God Bless!

strength

Some days we don't feel as though we have the strength to do much of anything.  To get up, to eat, to not eat, to fight the daily battle of traffic, work, or relationships....why?  Mainly because we lose our confidence.  Our confidence in the ability to "handle" things.  Remember the verse: "I  can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." Phillipians 4:13.    We have talked before about how we are not alone, but we have not discussed how the devil attacks our confidence in the ability to achieve.  The ability that when we are doing what the Lord wants we can accomplish it through Him...not alone.  Repeatedly through the Bible God says that he will not forsaken us for he is with us.  If you have a doubt about something, first is it something that God wishes, second if it is then know that the devil is in play...including the attempted breakdown of your inner strength.  After you realize that keep telling yourse...
