Happy Birthday!

It is so hard to imagine that six years have gone by since Tanner and Reagan were born! It was such a bittersweet day that day. My mind has been overwhelmed with so many memories today.....I was blessed that day with the sweetest little boys ever! God must have thought so to because he chose to keep one of them....it was devastating for us to see him go, and we shed many tears....I know that God has a little jewel in His angel band, I imagined him flying around today with his little wings, maybe they celebrated his birthday today, who knows!! I know that great joy awaits me when I get home!! Happy Birthday Tanner, I want you to know that you have brought joy to my life that I cannot explain, you are the most perfect child in my eyes that God ever created! Having you is a treasure that no amount of money could ever buy, Tanner you are amazing and Mommy loves you so much!! Happy Birthday Reagan, I want you to know how much we loved you and still do! Seeing you go broke mommys heart.....I know God must have had great big plans for you! You were such a precious little one, and as I cradled you in my arms I wanted to hold you for forever. Mommy had to say goodbye but only for a short time, I'll see you soon my baby.....I'll hold you once again...I put a balloon on your grave today, it had all kinds of animals on it....it broke loose and flew with the wind up to the heavens, at first it made mommy sad cause I had lost the balloon I had so carefully placed on your stone....then I decided that maybe it was traveling up to you! If you see a balloon, its from mommy!!  Happy Birthday sweet boys, having you has changed my life for forever!

Much Love, Mommy

What's going on!

Dathan and I have decided to make our life even crazier and build a house! We are really excited about it! We have a dozer man coming tomorrow to transform our hill into a nice flat spot to set the house! We have picked out siding and brick colors. The framer should be starting on it in a couple weeks.
Dathan, Tanner and I are doing great, we are a happy little family! Tanner is in school and learning well! He has learned all his ABC's and sounds, he is reconizing and saying his sightwords and counting!  We are so proud of him! He makes everyday fun and full of new adventures for us!

Fall!

I walked outside today and enjoyed the beauty of the colors that Fall brings! As I watch the leaves begin to fall, my mind goes back to when I was a child we would rake the leaves up as high as we could and ride our bikes thru them, we would jump in them and hide in them! As my mind wandered, I realized that my life has changed just as much as the leaves, and that everything in my life at some point seemed to be as bare as the trees in the Winter. Everything I hoped and dreamed of lay in a pile on the ground. Today as I look at my life, I see that somewhere along the way Spring came and produced new growth and once again brought sunshine and flowers along this pathway I call life!
