Mothers Day

Hi everyone, this is Little Love (aka Raquelle, but mommy and daddy never call me that.) Just thought I'd tell you about my first mothers day. I dressed my mommy up to match me so that everyone would know that she was mine. See, here is a picture.
We went to church where I decided to stay awake instead of sleep through the message. Since I was awake, mommy put me in the nursery. I didn't like that so I cried and cried. The workers didn't know how to calm me down so they held me up to the door so everyone in church would hear me cry. Eventually, mommy came to check on me (my plan worked). She came and I calmed right down and I made her stay in the nursery with me. Here is a picture of me laughing as I'm playing with mommy


After church, daddy and I took mommy out to lunch at Shari's. We tried to go to Hometown Buffet, but the line was out the door and down the block. We were to hungry to wait that long. Lots of people came and told mommy how cute I am. I tried to tell them, "of course I'm cute, I look just like my mommy" but they didn't understand my words.


After lunch we went home and Mommy and I took a nap while daddy helped uncle Matthew with his car. I hope all of you had a wonderful mothers day too!

Almost a decade!

 I have not posted anything on this blog in about 9 years!  The kids are growing up, and last night, as teenagers, Kezzy came across this blog.  “Mom!!! You have a blog?  Can I read it?”  Since then, she and Titus have been reading everything on here, reminiscing about how cute they were when they were little.  It got me thinking that maybe I should resurrect this old blog!  I have another child now (Theo) who was never even mentioned in any previous posts, and very little is on here about Annabelle and Philemon!  I’ll have to think about what I want to write about, now that the kids are older.  In the mean time, here is a new picture of my now much more grown up children.  This picture is of me and the kids on Mothers Day.

Raquelle is here!

Raquelle Elizabeth was born Sunday March 5th at 5:49 AM after 41 hours of labor! I was sent home from the hospital 3 times Friday and Saturday because I was not making very fast Progress. Contractions started out 3 min apart Friday at noon and got really strong by about 11 am on Saturday. I could no longer stand the pain so they had to keep me this time. By 4 pm I was at 3.5 cm and Contractions were 2 to 3 min apart, and so strong I was shaking uncontrolably through them. So I begged for an epi (gave up on going natural after the first 28 hours). The epi was the most traumatic part of the whole thing. As they were putting it in, my blood pressure dropped dangerously low and they had to rip it out and give me two shots of epinephrin to raise it back up and then start over. The 2nd try, they put the needle in too deep and punctured the fluid behind the epidural cavity, which caused the fluid between my brain and spinal cord to start leaking. This causes horrible migrain headaches that th...

The Dream Giver

I haven't written in a while, but as I start to toy with the idea of moving away from facebook, I find myself toying with the idea of reactivating this old blog.  I'm not sure what direction it will take.  Perhaps an overview of things I am learning?  Perhaps cute stories about the kids and every day life?  Maybe an occasional allergy friendly recipe... I don't know.  For now, I am a firm believer in life long learning and mentorship.  I strive to discipline my brain and my personal development daily with books I read, what I watch or listen to, Bible studies, and people I hang out with.  I just finished reading the book "The Dream Giver" by Bruce Wilkinson, the author of "The Prayer of Jabez."  I was surprised at how much I really enjoyed this  book! A short overview.  "The Dream Giver" is about a "nobody" named "Ordinary" who lives in the land of "familiar."  Every day, he wakes up and goes to the same job.  ...
