Random Thoughts For Today

Yesterday I was feeling yucky so I didn't get around to blogging. I do however have an update on my Grandmother, and I just wanted to thank everyone for praying for her. She had her surgery yesterday and everything went well! There were no complications {that I have heard of anyway}, and she is now recovering. She should be returning home over the weekend sometime I think. We are really thanking God for this!

Today I've been busy with cleaning and organizing as well as I can, not to mention sorting through clothes and bagging them for Goodwill. Twenty minutes ago Benjamin decided to have a sip of my green tea and poured it all down his front, and over his shoulders too. So we had to have a mid-day bath. I've decided to relax a bit and let him have a snack and watch his Wiggles before he goes down for another nap. He's holding up pretty well today! He's had a few off days lately concerning napping and whether or not he will go down. It's kind of strange because he usually went down no problem when we were at my parents' house, and yet when we get back to his familiar home... nope! I'm a little nervous about what we're going to do when we take our trip at the end of the month to Memphis. It should be an interesting trip anyway, because we are sharing a hotel room with Micah, her husband Justin, and their daughter Reagan. Yes, four adults and two babies in a hotel room! That is a recipe for a very interesting week! But, we are very grateful that our friends {who I haven't actually met in person before!} are willing to split a room with us!

I'm sure the nap situation will work out and it will be a fantastic week, as it usually is!



Ignore the boogers, check out those chub cheeks, and have a fantastic Thursday evening!

First things first.

Facebook is over. For me, anyway. Yesterday I pulled the plug. Facebook was taking up too much of my time. Too much time that I could spend with my son, with my house work, or most importantly with my God. I pulled the plug and I feel good about it. I'm not having withdrawals [yet]. In fact, I have spent a lot more time reflecting, playing, and folding laundry. Those of you who have known me for years know it is really rare for me to substitute something with any form of house work. But I'm reforming. A new and better me. It feels so good!

If we hadn't lived in Memphis for a year, I would have been shocked that anyone could go from:




to:




in just one day. Yes, puffy coat weather to barely even sweater weather. I sort of got used to quick changes when we lived in Memphis, though, so at least this isn't a shock to me. I will miss this sweet little awed expression:


and this one:


But I'm ready for some sunshine! I can't wait for Spring! We should be getting into the 50's and 60's next week! I can't tell you how exciting that is to me!

Well, I am sure there are more chores and reflecting to do, so I'm going to head off and do that! I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend and Valentine's Day! I am happy to be moving on and I gotta say I am ready for March!
