A Double Birthday

Son #7 and I share a birthday, 39 years apart! Today we are celebrating the 12th birthday of Son #7! My youngest man is growing up way to fast, I know, I always say that! He is fun, sensitive, a prankster, and thinks outside of the box! He keeps us on our toes since he is one of three children that think way deep!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SON!

YOU ARE A PRECIOUS SON

AND WE ARE SO GLAD GOD GAVE

YOU TO US!

LOVE, DADDY AND MOMMA

No cake for this young man! His new favorite dessert is
Arctic Blasters Orange Ice Cream bars. His new collecting
hobby is glass soda bottles. He asked for IBC Cream Soda for his
drink and Extreme Sour Warheads for his candy.

His gift was a Nerf Zombie Strike. Our family loves
Nerf gun wars. (He wanted a BB gun, but living in the
city with a busy road behind us it did not seem like
a good idea for an adventuresome young man.)

(Sorry, no pictures of the birthday Momma. I guess no one thought to capture me on my 51st birthday.)

My Mother's Gentle Love

My Mother's Gentle Love by Ron Hamilton Who puts a band-aid on my knee? Who holds me close so tenderly? Who always sees the best in me? There’s no one like mother. Who always wipes my tears away? Who tells me I’ll be great some day? Who cares in such a gentle way? There’s no one like mother. My mother’s gentle love, my mother’s gentle love Has taught me of God’s tender care, and turned my eyes above. I’ll bless her all my days for all her gentle ways. Oh, how I thank my Lord above for my mother’s gentle love. Today is my mother's viewing, and tomorrow is her funeral. The song above so much describes my mom. She loved her four children so very much! Before she had children, she was a nurse for "special care" babies~~"old" term for NICU. Once she started having children she gave up her career to stay at home and raise her own babies. Thanks, Mom! Thank you, Daddy, for allowing Mom to stay at home and raise us four children! My mother and her mo

Life....

Busy. That seems to describe life in our home. Just day to day busy. Nothing really noteworthy. Life moves on. Let me think, since I last posted.... well, let me back up to about a month before my last post. Daughter #6 got married in October of 2022...today Son #7 got married. So, I have gained another son and another daughter! Our youngest graduated from high school in May and our oldest grandchild graduated the following day! From our oldest child to our youngest, we have 33 years of education. (I'm tired just thinking about it!!) Still only 13 grandchildren. Hubby is still in education. I keep things going on the home front. I help out the families where and when needed. I still make cards for the card ministry that I have been doing for 19 years. I still crochet. That about sums up life at this point. Have a wonderful day!

Remembering Mom

Eleven years ago, today, my mom entered the gates of heaven. My heart still breaks, hurts, and grieves. But I know I will see her one day. It seems like it has been a lifetime. My youngest was only 6 1/2, now she is 17 1/2, a senior in high school and trying to choose between two colleges. My oldest was 26 with young children and now is 37 and his crew is growing up too quickly! My oldest grandchild was 6 and now is 17 and a senior in high school. My youngest grandchild was only 6 weeks old and now is eleven. Eight of my thirteen grandchildren have been born since that day. Mom Mom's Viewing My children, taken about 6 weeks before Mom died. I miss you, Mom!
