say a little prayer

I just want to ask for you to say a prayer for me. I am need of real direction in my life. Need to make sure that His will is taking me on this turns.

Summer Time

Summer has been going great so far. =) Spending time with Reese has been wonderful. He is so much fun and getting so big. So sad to send him to pre-k next year =( We went to Beaver's Bend for our annual trip and had a blast!! We are leaving for Gulf Shores in a week, and can't wait to be on the beach. We have also started a college Sunday school class at church, we are having fun and have some great students! We are pretty much keeping busy and enjoying summer life. That is about all I can update right now. I have several pictures to post, but for some reason the blogger is not letting me insert them. Hopefully the problem will be fixed before too long. I have some great "first" pictures of Reese to share. However, I am able to load some videos of Reese and swim lessons. Enjoy =)

Swim Lessons - learning the free-style aka the bear crawl

Swim Lessons - monkey walk and alligator crawl

First

... I Survived

School is official out for summer =) Well, I am teaching summer school, but I have a week off. I never thought I would make it through this year, but it is over. Still praying for God to show me the "special" that I missed this year, it seems like the worst year I have ever had. I need His eyes to show me. I trust that one day I will see. For now, I am excited about summer with Reese and the family.

Realization at the Zoo

Sign of my Father's love for me!

We took Reese and Nathan to the zoo a couple of weekends ago. We had the best time. Reese loved ALL the animals. He really like the snakes, which was surprising because he was scared to see them the night before. He is so outgoing and was just talking to every kid that would come up and look at whatever animal he was looking at and find out if they liked them and were having fun. He just has just a gentle spirit and really cares about others. I am so blessed that God shared him with me. I want another baby so badly, that sometimes I forget the beauty of the one I was given. He is just amazing! I just keep praying that I can have another, and if not that God will change my desires to match His, pray for me too, please.

Ready to go and see the animals!

I just love Nathan so much he has really been a blessing to

me the past few months. =)

Reese and Gigi - man does he love her!

Prayer Please

I am asking for you all to say a prayer for me and others to remain strong, faithful, and trust our Father's will and way...not ours. I also ask that my heart match the desires of my Lord's.

Diaper Cake

This is the diaper cake I made for my dear friend, Kristan. I have never done this before, but have seen them and just think that they are really cute. Sure hope she enjoys it. =)
