Lyrics That Mean Something

Little Angles

Lately

It is been busy around here! Lula Mae is really keeping me on my toes! She runs full speed for most of the day! I love seeing her change and grow! She is starting to recognize letters ( A, B, C, D, E, I, K, M, O, P, R, T, Z)! She is a sponge... soaking up all the knowledge she can! I look at her every day and thank God for having her in my life. Nothing is more joyful than watching watching my daughter learn!

My husband just got a promotion and I am so proud of him! God really does open doors for us when things start to look grim! We are so thankful for the career that Charlie has and we truly have been blessed! We try not to take all of these things for granted because we know how easily that can happen. I feel so blessed to be leading this life!

We are still trying to sell our condo and buy a house. Charlie and I have both reached a point where if it sells, great. If not, that's okay too. It took both of us a long time to let that go! We feel like God is in control now, and that's the only way it will be taken care of. We have prayed about it and now we have to let it go! It will all happen in God's timing!

My Struggle

All I can say is that I have been anxious. Anxious about life in general. I have been praying and praying for God to help me with this... although I feel like He wants me to deal with it in another way. I can feel Him leading me in a direction to help me cope with all this anxiety. I don't feel Him just taking the anxiety away, and that's okay. I don't want to be anxious... I know we should not be anxious... but yet I am anxious. Sometimes the lessons we have to learn just don't make since, and that's okay! I know I can make it through this with Him beside me. It may take longer than I want, but it will happen! Praise God!

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything be a prayer and a petition,
with thanksgiving, present your request to God.
Philippians 4:6 (NIV)

Lately

Our family vacation to Disney World was... AMAZING!!! Lula Mae had such a great time at Magic Kingdom! We got some really great pictures while we were there. I can't wait to take her to Disney World when she is about 3 or 4 and see her eyes light up even more! Also (Drum roll please!) Lula Mae is walking!!! Yes that's right, our 15 and a half month old is finally walking!!! Not only that but I COMPLETELY took her bottle away too!!! All the little pieces of her babyhood are slipping away from me... I am happy and sad at the same time. I am glad that she is a healthy, happy, normal child who is growing and learning... but I will miss her being a little baby. All I have left are her diapers and we are hoping to have those gone by Christmas. (We will see on that ;-) but I have my fingers crossed!) I looked through her baby book the other day and realized that there are only a few things left to fill out in it. We have written down EVERYTHING for her! I pray that someday she will appreciate all of her memories! Being a Mommy is the MOST rewarding job I have ever had! I am so happy with my life and pray that God keeps blessing me and my family each and every day!

Too Cute For Words

My Struggle

These days I have really been worried about lots of things that are completely out of my control. I am trying so hard to let go of these things... each time I take a few steps forward, I take 3 steps back! I am praying very hard to just let go! I know that God is providing for us and that I have nothing to worry about. How is it that I know that.... but still just can't let go? All I can do is pray!

So do not fear, for I am with you; Do not be disnmayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:10

Lyrics That Mean Something

I love to hear this song! It makes me think about seeing my Granddaddy when I get to Heaven. I turn this song up really loud and sing it at the top of my lungs when it is on! Enjoy!
