Happy Birthday!!!!!!

My baby is 9 today. He was not supposed to be. I was told after my third child I could not and should not have any more children. Thankfully we serve a mighty God who knows what doctors do not. We were both surprised and overjoyed when the Lord decided to increase our family by one more. Life has never been the same. R is full of life. He takes it at 110 mph wherever he goes. He is a bundle of energy that spreads joy wherever he goes. So today we celebrate the gift the Lord has sent to us. We celebrate 9 years of wonder at God's creation.

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Psalm 139:13-15

All that God makes is wonderful. We celebrate the wonderful life he has given us in our youngest.

Happy Birthday R!

Hopefully I will post pictures in a few days!

Oohh!! Look at me!!! LOL!

Thanks to DeEtta who sent me to "The Cutest Blog on the Block" I have now changed my blog to a fall theme. Like it? Anyway, it was quick and easy and fits my personality of liking to change things on a regular basis!
I am hoping to blog more these days. In fact, I have some very cute pumpkin patch pictures to post soon. I will try to get to it later today.
Off to enjoy my Saturday with my family and to get some things done!

Sister, This Ones For You!

My sister let me know that she has noticed my lack of blogging. When I checked I realized I have not blogged since Sept. 8. That was 2 months ago!!!! Confession: My digital camera broke and for some reason I think I must have pictures when I blog. Well, I now see the error of my ways.
We have been very busy. I committed this year to be HOME to HOME School. I dropped all of my outside activities but somehow am still very, very busy. I have started working a part-time job and it has taken time to learn. I have 2 in high school, 1 in middle school and one in elementary. I cannot teach them all at the same level so I have 4 different schedules to plan. On top of all that my body has decided to develop allergies I have not had before and so I have been battling sinus headaches that lead to migraine headaches, but the Lord has been faithful and has kept me moving.
The kids are all doing great. In fact, they have some friends over tonight and are sleeping in the backyard in tents and it is only 47 degrees out! LOL They are determined to make it through the night. We are leaving the back door open!
I will take pictures, but since I am back to my 35 mm camera I will have to actually develop the film first!
I will try to blog within the next couple of days to let you know how they kids fared.
OK Sis, it is your turn.
