Thanks and blessings....

well, not much to say today, but just wanted to say thanks... to God, family and friends. My friend recently had a baby at 28 weeks and it just got me thanking god for two easy, healthy pregnancies and kids. I know this is truly a blessing, esp in todays society. I feel so previledged to have had that. I try my best to live a godly life, which is not easy and at times i fail, but he is forever there and good in my life. No matter what happens, good or bad i know it goes through gods hands first, which makes me smile cause i know he will not give us more than we can handle. This new job is a blessing, yet a challenge too for none of my co workers are christians and live lives that are not very godly. Which in turns make me thank god repeatedly for all he has given me. Without him we are nothing.
Family and friends make life worth while. I will always be grateful for those who listen, inspire and just take time out for me and my family. God knows what each of us needs and brings the right person in at the right time. Were no where near perfect dont get me wrong, but i enjoy life with god right on my side, leading and changing us each and everyday.
Well, have to head to bed, we sleep while they sleep... which isnt much these days working really threw off my sleep patterns... anyways, i hope to blog more regularly if i ever find the time... until next time!!! GOD BLESS

Busy Busy

ok, so i havent blogged in a while so i thought i would catch everyone up! lol Since my last post life has been super busy. I got a job, which i desperately needed and i like it. Its at EZ GO on the turnpike at stroud. I like it because its money, who doesnt, and pay is better then any other job i have had, it stays busy all the time, a constant thing to do so i dont get bored! I am a little sore, i mopped the entire store last night and im super sore... i havent worked that hard since before ZAch, three years!!!! i am soo out of shape, two babies and a galbladder removal will do that to a person! But im crossing my fingers and hoping that i can loose weight with this job too so thats a plus! But i really enjoy working, sitting at home in the house all day was driving me crazy. i love spending time with my kids, but i needed a job to keep my sanity. lol. but im only working part time so i really enjoy it cause it also gives me days home with the boys. But financially we needed a second income, in todays society its hard supporting four on one income. anywho, i like it so i hope it goes well, once my muscles get use to the work.... lol
well, logan is seven and a half months old!! Crazyness!!! he is growing up so fast! He has four teeth, refuses to lay on his stomach to learn to crawl, but immediatlely rolls over. funny he thinks. hes very smiley, loves to laugh and is a great baby. I am extremely blessed to have two good babies. Logan is alot like me and my dad i believe where zach is brians twin, help us all. lol. Logan is very laid back and happy go lucky, where zach is to but he has to be on the go constantly, working or helping and getting into everything!! Zach is independent, a helper always even if its not much a help, a hard worker he wil be and i love that about him. I cant wait till logan gets that age to see what his traits will be! =)
Zach is two and a half, three in january and still refuses to go to the big boy potty!! He still sits on it forever just to sit then pees in the floor so i think it will be a long process, oh did i mention he is just as stubborn as his daddy too!! omg hard headed through and through, like father like son.... lol
anyways,
mom.... well shes doing ok. After Effies funeral things have been different. She said to me once "who will i run around with, go shopping with? call just to chat?
" shes taking it hard, for she was her best friend for thirty years, but she has been so strong. She remembers her for the friend she was and all the precious memories we have had. She gets down every once in a while but who wouldnt? I cant imagine loosing a friend of that many years would be easy, but she feels truly blessed for the time she had with Effie. We all do. That little white house on the corner of eleventh street will never be the same, without the big happy heart of that very special lady we all came to love.

well, before i start a tear party, i better change the subject...
My adopted sister Kelsey had her baby this past month, a perfect little girl weighing a little 5 pounds, my kids head weighed more than that! But it was such a beautiful thing. Maybe not under the best circumstances she was created but she is so dearly loved and brought two people together in a way i am thankful for. I think they wil be a happy little family, regardless of what the world thinks of them. For they are one, and happy and no one can hinder that. Zayli is her name and she is a true blessing of how God can get someones attention, which has certainly happened in this case. Kelsey and De has been given this daughter to love and protect and watching them with her i know they certainly do and will for the rest of their laugh. For once, i remeber kels has a little girl, not a care in the world, now all grown up having a baby of her own, how god can change us all. Kels is grown into a beautiful young lady, a mother. God is Good

lets see.... i guess i cant think of anything else. Brian still works at Kimray and loves it.... gets to start working overtime again, which is great... i love my new job, and my kids are growing up way tooo fast!!! If this rain ever dries up, it will be nothing but sunshine and laughs around this house!!!
