A New Start {Thoughts From Me}

December 22, 2017 by Dana

And we are BACK!

In a new home, in a new place, living our life as always!!  It’s awesome!  And this internet is soooo much better than my last one so you’ll be seeing lots more from me this coming year.

Guess what?!!

We will also be coming back with more reviews from the Homeschool Review Crew!  That’s right, we were asked to return for 2018!  I’m so excited to share new reviews with you all this year.  We love using these products for our homeschooling and our reading fun too.

Look forward to some videos this year as well.  My 17 year old is really getting into videos so he’ll be helping me to grow this blog with video reviews.  I’m excited for this addition.  He is as well.

So I’m going to keep this short and sweet for now but look for lots more to come to our little blog very soon.

Love and blessings to all,
Dana Lambert-Hodge

To Blog Or Not To Blog… {Thoughts From Me}

October 22, 2016 by Dana

This year blogging has taken a backseat to life for us. It wasn’t my intention to just let the blog go but rather an inability to keep up with writing here. As it often does, life gets in the way and there’s just no time to devote to our online presence.

A year ago, our life hit rock bottom and it’s taken a year to get back some normalcy after all we went through in our time living in Georgetown. There have been a great many changes, struggles and a constant rebuilding of our life since leaving there. The lowest point of our life has transformed into better by the day and for that I’m truly thankful.

There are many more changes to come.

When you’re living in an abusive environment, you don’t always see just how bad things are. You make excuses for the abuse. You overlook truth so that you can just make it to the next day. You think if you can just hold on, things will get better. Maybe that’s true for some but for me and my children, it definitely wasn’t.

I see such a difference in my children in this past year. I see their eyes shine with laughter. I see happiness and an unbreakable bond. Sure they argue like most siblings but there is an irreplaceable love between them that simply amazes me. I’m thankful they’ve come through life with this bond and strength to get them through.

Life is not easy for any of us. God didn’t promise it would be easy. He promises us that in the end all of the struggle, trails, tribulations we go through will be worth it. Heaven is the prize, the end goal, in this. Heaven is the reward we all reach for.

So as we continue through the daily struggle, rebuilding our life together, I look forward to rebuilding our blog as well. I miss writing. I miss sharing our life with others. I miss the outlet that this little online space provides me with. I look forward to beginning here again and sharing our future with you as we continue letting go of the past.

July 2016: Update from Us {Thoughts From Me}

July 21, 2016 by Dana

I know I haven’t updated in quite some time.  When you have four kids with special needs life keeps you busy.  Not to mention not having internet at home for almost a year.  Thankfully, things are now looking up and I’m happy to say I’m back.

What We’ve Been Up To:

Last month, Mimi had surgery on both her feet to correct her toe-walking.  She’s been in casts ever since.  In a few weeks, the casts come off and she’ll be placed into orthotics for a while.  In the meantime, she’s going to therapy several times a week, gaining strength so she can relearn how to walk once her casts are removed.  So far so good.  
I’m really proud of Mimi.  She’s fought hard to come through this surgery and get back going.  She’s excited for the opportunities this will allow for her life and so am I.  We’re both looking forward to some field trips this fall when the weather cools off and she’s got some experience and healing behind her.  
Win, Laycie and Jack are all doing great.  Win’s earning rewards for a PS3 which he’s excited for.  Laycie is working on earning a 3DS by completing her schoolwork and chores without complaint.  Jack is learning so much every day.  He can tell you dinosaur names and what they eat.  He is now recognizing words.  But his absolute favorite thing is fishing.  This boy loves to fish!  He can name the lures and is learning to throw his line like a pro!  He’ll be out fishing his Daddy in no time!

What’s Coming Up:

I said a while back that I was planning to change our blog name but I’ve since decided to keep it since we have a well established blog and so many followers.  So we will remain Luv’N Lambert Life though I may alter it a bit in the future.
We now have internet at home so this allows me to get back to blogging and sharing in groups, among other things.  I’m so excited about that because I have dearly missed everyone!
I have several book launches that I’m participating in over the next few months.  I’m so excited to share those with you all.  In fact, my first will be coming up very soon so keep an eye out. 
I have some plans for developing some special things for Luv’N Lambert Life.  I’d like to develop some printables and maybe some images to share.  I’d also like to create a few series posts to share with you guys.  All in good time though.  
For now, bare with me as I get back on track and back to sharing online.  I hope all of you are well and am praying for each of you.  
God bless, 
Dana
