I'm going to have 3 nephews!

Everytime I think about having 3 nephews it really makes me want to shake my head!

It is just strange to me some times as I sit and think about how much life changes so quickly. You spend so many years at home growing up- cousins, camping, family vacations, sibling rivalry, Christmas EARLY mornings...

Then one day... Your married. 2 cousins have moved far away :( , Christmas is not the same, grandparents pass away, family vacations have to be divided up or taken seperatley because not EVERYONE can go at the same time... Its like your ONE big family because multiple families... Ugh... This post has made me sad.

My intention was to write about how much fun I had last week when I got visit my sister (Who is baking my 3rd nephew) and nephew! I also got to spend a day hanging out with my  best friend!

So lets continue down that road... yes? OK!

So last Monday started my spring break! I had planned a trip to GA and my mom decided to tag along and surprise my sister! She had no idea that mom was coming! (we are sneaky like that)

My sisters mother cooked us a fabulous meal! JJ was able to open his presents (Christmas,birthday, and Easter basket... I wasn't going to miss a any celebration!)

I also was able to find some cute stuff for my new nephew!

One said "aaargg change me booty" and the other "Dude your girlfriend is checking me out"

The bib I got said "My aunt loves me"

It was so great to feel the baby kick! I was so excited!

Here is some photos!

My sister Kim, the one I have requested prayer for. Continue to pray.



Have a great Wednesday!

Staying Hopeful, 
Aunt LaLa

    I am so proud of my family and even though it's sad we are apart sometimes, I still feel so close to all of you! I am excited my babies are all doing well! Memaw is happy about our new little one coming in June! I loved spending time with Kim and yes my husbands x wife treated us to a fabulous meal and really enjoyed our day! Kissing on jj was my gift of the day and the look of surprise on Kim's face when she saw me! Then spending time with my other baby girl, Mel, was awesome! She put me a little treat in my room, yummy! Oh and I ate steak that was paid for by sweet Mel! Love you LaLa, it was great!

One year ago today my life changed

Image
One year ago today a new season in my life was manifested. One year ago this morning around 2am we lost our precious baby. Hope would be around 4 months right now had she been meant to stay on this earth. Even though my heart is broken I feel Gods presence with me today, so strong. Through many talks and prayers with my God, I made it through these last few days without being devastated. Through my obiedance I believe God gave more healing to my heart. Sunday morning was extremely difficult. But I received so much support. Physically, mentally, and spiritually. My sweet friends and family held me hand, rubbed my back, gave me hugs as I stood for the first time as a mom on the stage with the rest of the moms. I can not even begin to describe how much they helped. I know without their support and God's supernatural strength I wouldn't have made it through. As I left service I felt a little lighter, a little bit of that dark grief left. Last night was our women...

Never dreamed...

Starting last Monday this week was a complete roller coaster. Not sure if I could ever explain to anyone how painful it has been. I've struggled with if I should write about my experience. To write about something so close to you can make you seem so vulnerable. Writing has always helped me. I've kept a journal since I was nine. I've always been very analytical with my feelings and things going on around me. Which is why I have a journal, a prayer journal, and a blog :) Crazy, I know. I usually don't have much time to write in any of them, but the blog. I wonder how many women suffer silently because of what this one even does to us emotionally, physically, and spiritually. I don't want to suffer alone. I needed to know that what I'm feeling is normal. Even though people can be very sympathetic, some seem like it is no big deal. It was a big deal. And every second with the Lords help I'm making it. Last Monday night I had a miscarriage. Even as I type ...

I am the mom not you

Through out my life there have been many times where unsolicited advice has been overwhelming, frustrat ing ,and hurtful. There has been three times that it was all the three above. 1. When I got married 2. When I had a miscarriage 3. When I had Ethan A few months ago I asked mothers to send me things that pertained to mothering their children. Some responses were heartbreaking and made me m ad to be honest . Some were your typical insensitive things that people say. I started writing this post to give examples, but I could not continue because honestly I was getting too angry. Some of the moms I have talked to have really suffered in silence by what some others have called "help" or just saying their opinions because they "care". My heart hurts so bad for these women.  I am a pretty bold person. I have had my moments where I have had to kindly put some one in their place. I also have had to be firm. Mothers need to feel empowered! These...
