This is the Life!

This is the Life, its where I wanna be, living from center of a heart that's free! Recognize those lyrics? Any Phillips, Craig, and Dean fans out there? I love PCD, yes I am old, yes I have been to their concerts and I would go again! There are some artists that can write songs that stick with you, and this is one of them. The life I live is a choice and it is the only choice. When we have services like the one we had Tuesday night, it is confirmation that we are living the best life! Below is a picture of my boys, they are getting a refilling of the Holy Ghost. I couldn't think of a better place for them to be. Proverbs 22:6 says, Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. I want this to be a way of life for my kids, it is the only life that matters eternally and that is the most important thing!


Thanks Aunt Tabby for the picture!

That was such an awesome service. To see all the kids up there praying for each other is a one-in-a-million experience. Thankfully, it happens more often than that at a great church like ours! We are truly blessed of God!!

By the way, I added you to my "Friends and Family" (and I am not talking about phone service lol)

Watching these moments is so powerful! But the best part will be seeing them as successful, God fearing adults. Keep up the good work cuz I'm trying hard to corrupt them! LOL

Life in the Real World!

Let me preface everything I am about to say by saying, I have the most wonderful, intelligent, beautiful, talented children ever created! (now I've lost you because your thinking, she's wrong, I do, your right, you do too!) So why is it that they can also be the complete opposite(at times)? Why do I have to tell the same child everyday to not bring a blanket to the table. I tell them "Please get dressed before you come eat." Apparently, it is much easier to wrap oneself in a blanket and then have to fish your hands out to eat! Why does my child who can remember things from infancy(seems that way anyhow) have to be reminded every morning to "Please brush your teeth"? Why does my child, who can't stand for anyone to touch their belongings, think it is ok for them to get into my purse everyday and chew my gum, use my chapstick, and eat any mints that might be left from the previous days' rampage? How is it that my child, who thinks the world is their ca

An anniversary, a birthday and a birth defect??

Image
You are probably wondering what that is all about. Right?? Well, on Wednesday, Ashley came running into the house crying, not screaming, just crying. She had tripped over Zoey's (our dog) leash and scraped her arm. Not a big deal, no blood. However, on closer examination, I noticed a lump on her elbow, as if her arm was out of socket. Strange, I never noticed that before and she wasn't screaming out in pain. So, being the worrisome mom that I am, I called the doctor. Of course they said bring her in. So off to Kaiser we go, first to be seen by a doctor(who wasn't even going to do an x-ray until I persisted), then to Radiology for x-rays, back to the same doctor who was surprised there was actually a reason to do the x-ray. She then told me that her radius was not in the right place and it could be the result of an injury prior to that day or from birth(which would be considered a birth defect). She told me she was going to send a referral to Orthopedics. Great, maybe someon

Home Again, Home Again, Jiggety Jig!!!

We arrived home late Sunday night after what seemed like a year away from home. (Actually it was a little over three weeks.) We left on the 7th of August at about 4 pm and drove to Grants Pass. We stayed the night there, getting up the next morning and continuing on to Portland. We got to Portland about 3pm, spent the evening hanging out at my brother's house and getting ready for the next day. Saturday the 9th, we celebrated my littlest nephew, Judah Milo Carlson's first birthday. His actual birthday is the 14th but for sake of family and friends we had the party that Saturday. My brother's church family came and then some of his family and some of my sister in laws family came. We bar-b-qued and played games, but mostly just talked. Then the next day was church. We went to church with them, they go to the Gleason's church in Oregon City. They are very sweet people. I love Sis. Gleason, she always has the kindest words to say. OK, continuing on, Monday was just a play
