Easter


On this Easter weekend, let us not forget that Easter is not about eggs and bunnies. It is about a Savior - Jesus - who came to earth, lived a sinless life, went to the cross an innocent man, took the sins of all of us upon him, died but wait. . . ROSE AGAIN!


Believe He lives, I can face tomorrow. Because He lives, all fear is GONE! Because I know He holds the future. And life is worth the living just because HE LIVES!


God bless you my friends.

Bell Center Kids Race


Saturday, Feb 13th, 2010, Katy ran in her first marathon. Well, actually it was a 50-yard dash in the Bell Center Kids Race during Mercedes Marathon weekend. She ran with her Daddy. She did great. Thank you to all of those who ran in the marathon and for your support of the Bell Center!

Here We Go Again


Well, it is that time again. Time for yet another surgery. Please remember Katy as she has her tonsilectomy tomorrow, Thursday, December 10th. She will also have an ABR (hearing test) and Dr. Hill is going to do some revision of her trach scar. The worse part for me is that I won't be able to stay with her overnight as I am still recovering from my back surgery last week. Please say a little prayer for her and I will update as soon as I can.

Also, I want to ask everyone to please say a prayer for my friend, Candi Meadows and her family, especially little Luke. Candi is such a wonderful woman and an incredible Mom. We are hoping that Luke will undergo a successful LTR in January and that a little miracle called trach removal will take place. It is very scary and I want Candi to know that she has lots of folks lifting her name up to the Great Physician.

Until later my friends,
God be with you and bless you!

"Thanksgiving"


Today, as we sat down to a table full of food, I was reminded of those who don't have near as much as we do. I fuss so much about not having enough money to pay the mortgage or the phone bill. I fuss because I can't buy what I want to buy, when I want to buy it. But I am so blessed. I have food on my table. I have a good place to sleep. I have shoes on my feet. I have a wonderful husband who loves me unconditionally and two exceptional families who love me in spite of myself. I have a little bundle of joy we could have easily gone on to heaven on many occasions but for whatever the reason, God, in His infinite wisdom, chose to leave her here with me and for that I am truly thankful. Let's not forget what Thanksgiving and Christmas are really all about. It's about a loving God who sent His son to this earth to die for our sins. It's about NOT getting what we deserve but by His grace, getting what he wants us to have - a eternal home with Him. Let us take the time over the next few weeks to remember the Jesus is the reason for this season and for every day that He gives us. Let us not take for granted His sacrifice and let us let others see Him through us. You never know but you may be the only Jesus someone sees. So, if the line is too long at Walmart, just smile. Be thankful we live in a country where we can go to Walmart and purchase whatever we want 24 hours a day! But mostly, let's just be thankful.

"Give thanks with a grateful heart;
Give thanks to the holy one.
Give thanks, because He's given Jesus Christ, His son.
And now, let the meak say I am strong.
Let the poor say I am rich,
Because of what the Lord has done for us.
Give thanks."

Thank you, my friends, for being my friends.

Oh, and I found out today that Katy loves sweet potatoes but hates stuffing. I can't say I blame her.

With His love this holiday season,
Kelly

Fruit Salad, Yummy, Yummy. Almost as good as Daddy's Comic Books~

Found out this morning that Katy's Ahma has pneumonia! Thanksgiving dinner canceled for tonight. Guess that means I'm gonna have to cook something. :o(

Well, so enjoyed Pastor Sam's message this morning "Thanksgiving in Jerusaleum". Katy is doing good today. She slept until almost 11:00 a.m.! Yea, Katy!

I made a little visit to Kmart to get Katy some black shoes.

Do you guys know that song? From the Wiggles? My nephew, Will, used to sing that all the time. He would wiggle his hands constantly. I hope Katy likes fruit salad.

She can't live on her Daddy's comic books! (I just removed a big hunk of one of them from her mouth! I about lost a finger!)

You guys be patient with me. I don't know what I'm doing here. So, hopefully, these posts will get better as we go along!

Love ya'll!!

Hey Everybody!

Well, I'm new at this so give me some time. Katy is doing good. She is having her tonsils out on 12/10/09. Mommy is having back surgery on 12/01. Fun days ahead. . .
