Pray for my Uncle

This has been a hard weekend.
My Uncle Billy had a seziure on Sat. morning as he was getting into the shower. He was home by himself and fell in a way that his chin tucked into his chest, he vomited and aspirated, and no one is sure how long he went w/o oxygen but they know it was longer than 4 min. ( 4 min. of oxgyen deprivation and the brain begins to die). My aunt and 14 year old cousin found him and did CPR on him until the paramedics arrived. They did some tests yesterday and today we found out that he has no brain function. He is on life support right now and they are going to perform another test in the morning. Please please pray!
1. for my aunt and 2 cousins 17, and 14.
2. my uncle that he be heeled here on earth or in heaven
3. for my dad and his brother
4. for Billy's family and friends.

Tell your husband/wife and kids that you love them every chance you can.

Is It a Baby or a Cat?

I must be REALLY deprived of sleep....
Toby had a funny story for me when I woke up this morning. He said that when he got in bed last night that I sat strait up and started saying "there's a baby in our bed, there's a baby in our bed" (Cason was in his crib) then I reached down to the foot of the bed, grabbed our cat who was sleeping at the end of the bed, and started to rock him like a baby saying, "is it a baby or a cat, is it a baby or a cat?"

WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME??????
This is a cat

This is a baby

Maybe I was confused by this...

Lucky

I feel lucky today. Actually I feel lucky everyday but today is special because it is my first Mother's Day. As a little girl I would get really excited for Mother's Day because I always wanted to make my mom feel special and do nice things for her( I should have done that everyday). Now that I am a mom the day is even more fun for me. Today was not about getting gifts and people doing nice things for me even though I loved those things too. Today was about feeling lucky that God picked ME to be Cason's mommy. I feel lucky that God picked ME for Cason to grow inside of for 9 months and 2 days. I feel lucky that God made Cason absolutely perfect and healthy. I feel lucky because I am Toby's wife and that he is Cason's daddy. I feel lucky that I got to spend this Mother's Day with my mom. I feel lucky that I got to spend this Mother's Day with my sister on her first Mother's Day too. I feel lucky because Cason and his daddy gave me tickets to go see U2 in the fall. But most of all I feel lucky because God picked ME to be the mommy of Cason.
And when it comes down to it, it isn't luck at all. It is God's hand in my life. His plan and His desires and I am left speechless.



Who wouldn't feel lucky after seeing a face like this?

Our Lives Just Got A Whole Lot Messier
