Our Lovely neighbors let us use their pool today...it was sooo HOT!
Thank you Cain Family!

Our Beautiful Taylor




The Lord has blessed us with a daughter who love the Lord, wants to save all
the orphans in the world, wants to belong..but wants to stand out...daily challenges us.
We love her dearly. She is sensitive and strong.


TJ met Alex in one of the plays at Rainbow Theater. They are great buddies now. Alex is a good friend. The boys have lots of the same interests....illusions, making movies, etc. Here is TJ (on the right) he played Tweedle Dum in Alice in Wonderland.

Tweedle Dum and Alice (TJ and Claire). Claire is my bff's daughter. TJ and Claire have known eachother since birth. It was fun that they got to perform together.


Alice and the Mad Hatter (Claire and Taylor)
They are great friends!!!


Taylor was adorable as the Mad Hatter!


"A very merry un-birthday to you...."


Morgan played Tweedle Dee. TJ and Morgan did AWESOME!!

Cortney was a do do bird and Taylor also played a turtle and a daisy.



Think think think...



My handsome tj...he can go from acting, to baseball, to playing piano, to performing a magic trick..and he's an under cover police ninja!! He is multi-talented.


















Denial

My mom called me yesterday and told me that her neurologist has diagnosed her with MS. This is not the first time...but they somehow changed their diagnosis last time. I can't tell you how I am feeling...except denial. I love my Mom, she is a strong lady. She had leukemia and beat it. She is very important to me, i can't imagine my life without her. I am praying they are wrong again.
I also know God will use whatever diagnosis for good...I trust God.

the blessing and the curse..

Todd and I are both so blessed to be able to work at our church that we LOVE!! We have super flexible schedules (most of the time). We work with great people, we get to serve God as our job..there are countless wonderful things about the job...holidays are the downfall..we are so busy before the holidays and usually work on the holiday (Christmas, Easter etc). We have been so busy...Todd with all of the many church services the last weeks, me planning the Easter Outreach (not to mention my first day care kid started, he is amazingly cute). This morning I realized I hadn't even planned what the boys would wear to church, the morning was so rushed. Church was great. Shanay asked if I was cooking Easter Dinner...ugh, am I a horrible Mom, I didn't plan on cooking...i was tired...really really tired. I did end up making chicken fettuccini alfredo, not very Easter Dinner like. The boys were tired so we waited until after nap to have the traditional back yard egg hunt. By the time we had the Egg hunt it was 7:15, cold outside and I was in a 'icky mad at everyone mood'. My expectations of the day did not turn out to be what the reality of the boys first Easter was.
I really need to plan better I guess!
Goodnight.
