Our God is an AWESOME God. Our home church has started a youth group ( about a month ago ) Another young woman and myself are working together to get it off the ground and going. Last night was amazing. We had praise and worship, complete with our own little ‘band’. It was very refreshing. God blesses me so much daily. This morning, Lucas woke up not feeling well. He started coughing and said his tummy hurt. He went to the potty to throw up, and as he was standing there hanging over the toilet with me rubbing his back he started praying. “Jesus please make my tummy stop hurting, please make it stop throwing up. Jesus. I love you Jesus. Thank you” It was the sweetest thing I think I have ever heard. This little boy has what you call TRUE faith. He teaches me so much. He is the ideal example of the faith we should have daily. Thank you JESUS for this amazing little person that is such a blessing to us.

Just a few thoughts...

Wow...this has been a great...month!! I am so lucky to be married to my best friend. He is everything I have ever wanted in a husband...smart, funny, supportive, loving, sexy, affectionate, devoted, a good daddy, attractive, attentive, motivated, the list goes on and on. He spoiled me rotten on Valentines and my birthday. :) I am so madly in love with him. Our love is so much stronger than what it was when we started out, it's amazing how much it has grown! Now, granted, we have ups and downs as any marriage/relationship does, but we always, always pull through and the great times definately outweigh the bad! So...next major life decision. :
We have decided to start 'trying' to get pregnant again! Woo-hoo!! Not going to bore you with a bunch of conception details...but by next month we should be ready to begin the process...hehe. We are very excited, but not telling any of our family...(just a few close friends that I can't possible keep something that exciting from!) After God blesses us with another pregnancy I will have Lucas to blog about as well as pregnancy fun!! We can not wait!

Bigger than the Dark...

We were on the way home from church last night, and Lucas says "Mommy I'm scared, because it's dark outside." Of course, I replied that he shouldn't be scared, we were perfectly safe inside of our car! Him, being so incredibly in touch with everything, says " That is right Mommy. WE are safe because God is bigger than the dark and He always make us safe." My eyes welled up with tears as I thanked God for this wonderfully precious little boy that He put in our lives. Lucas understands so much. If only us adults could have that kind of faith and reassurance in knowing that no matter WHAT we are facing...God is bigger, always in control and ALWAYS takes care of us. It's just that simple.


As most of you know, a good percentage of my posts will be about this little guy, our son Lucas. He is by far the coolest kid I have ever, ever know and he is only 3. His insight into things is so keen, and like most kids he is uncommonly observant...of everything. His intelligence and wit are constantly amazing me. He can always, always make me smile, no matter what. He is the oxygen to my water. Our lives were so empty before he came along! He grows...spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically everyday. It is so amazing to me that he is no longer a 'baby' but an actual little person. He is so grown up and advanced for his age. His sense of humor definately comes from Daddy's side...he is always pulling something out of his sleeve, picking on me, trying to scare me, or doing something absolutely off the wall just to make me laugh. He is my silly little bear. (I started calling him Baby Bear when he was an infant, and it stuck. So he has decided that now he is Little Bear, I am Mommy Bear and Daddy is Daddy Bear. And when he has a brother, he will be the Baby Bear.) There is no possible way I can share every amazing, smart, funny, entertaining thing that he does...but I'll do my best. Lucas is a total inspiration for me to better myself. Heath, as well, is constantly challenging me even though he doesn't know it. I am hoping that through this blog, I will share my thoughts, feelings and self in order to express myself!
