changes

Well, they just going to come! Our family is on a new coarse...where that goes I'm not sure but we are excited about the future. Not only are there new babies in our immediately coming soon but also in our extendly family! I will have a great niece in just a few weeks and a great nephew in April. We have twin grandchildren due in early February, a boy and a girl. After Heather, our 2nd daughter goes back to work I'll be babysitting the twins along with our 3 year old and 9 month old grandsons! I'm excited and nervous all at the same time!!! Then we have another grand baby due in late June so Grammy will have a full house next fall!!!

My grandchildren bring me great joy. They are so funny...Landon...the baby is learning something new every day so it is amazing to watch him learn and explore with great curiosity! He even looks alot like curious George...he is always smiling. Ayden...will be 3 in less than a month now...if we can just get him potty trained!!!!! He is so funny and has quite the imagination! He is always saying something funny...the other day he said...i'm sorry grammy...honey but toys don't last forever...Christmas will be so fun with him this year. I know it won't take too long before he likes the presents but right now he says he doesn't want anything for Christmas because it's not his birthday...it Jesus' birthday...then he tells us what Jesus did for us...died for our sins...what a sweet thing for such a little one to know...truth that will change his life!

I pray Christmas brings joy to your hearts this season as we pray for our nation, our new president elect...our economy.

God Bless

Today has been pretty crazy...I can't even put into words the amount of laundry I've done today...let's just say it's sick!!! I am the newly elected president of project graduation...again...it's just sick...but it's for katie and since she's the last...I think I can do this!


I've been enjoying the boys today also...they are so funny..Ayden says the cutest things...he is so very smart...I know that is what all grandmas say but be REALLY is...but today...he was in the kitchen planning cars and singing...Mighty to Save...there is nothing like hearing a 2 year old praise the Lord!!! And landon is getting quite the personality!!! He is 6 months old now and smiles all the time...

Heather has an ultra sound next week and I can't wait to see pictures of this new little one...

My heart was saddened by the news the Ray Boltz has professed to be living the homosexual lifestyle now. He as written some of the most beautiful songs...Thank You in particular God used in my life to reveal my need to surrender my life to HIM. I would ask you all to join together and pray for Mr. Boltz, that God would rip these scales from his eyes...to be set free....those of us who have experienced this freedom that only comes for the Lord intervention in our lives know the power and freedom that comes from this!!!

Well...it's time for bed...

Well, today is a new fresh day and I wait in great anticipation for what it holds! I must say I find myself thinking of all the people who lost loved ones 7 years ago when our nation was forever changed! We talked about this last night with the teens. Those kids blow me away on a regular basis because they can still see the greatness of God and the fact that He is still on His throne! If only we adults could have that faith for clearly!!!! I also want to encourage everyone to be in prayer for those in the path of this next hurricane. My heart goes out to those who, on top of everything else this will be a huge financial strain.

Well I will have 4 children 2 and under with me today and God has given me His grace for the day again. I look forward to the day...hopefully I'll make time to play preschool with the two oldest...

to all...
have a great day in the Lord!

Something new in my life

Well...this is something new in my life...blogging...I never thought I'd so this! Ill need help from you out there who are more experienced at this than me that is for sure!!!!

My mind is racing a million miles an hour today. My youngest of 4 incredible children that God has blessed me with has began her senior year and the thought of an empty nest is overwhelming! I have had children since I was 19 years old...I just pray that God will open up new opportunities for me to have a ministry outside our home...I know this will be a new chapter in my life and I am looking forward to what the future holds! I just can't imagine it without one of my offsprings with me at every turn...anyone out there have any words of wisdom?
