The joys of a good bowl of cereal!

The Scent of Spring {Spring 2010}
My mind is running miles and miles a minute. There is a long trailing list of things I would love to write about. It must be the lovely Spring weather.
Spring brings about new beginnings and outdoor fun. It brings the creatures of the earth out of hiding and the flowers into bloom. These are the things the kids enjoy most.
Speaking of the kids: they have been enjoying the outdoors this week. They went to the park while they were visiting their Aunt. They have played outside, riding in the jeep and playing on the slide.
Laycie has joyously stomped her bare feet across the grass all over our yard. She’s enjoyed the new soft, green blades tickling her feet. She loves pulling at the dead growth and watching it blow upon the wind when she lets go.
We have greatly enjoyed the wonderful weather and taking Laycie a quick four wheeler ride. Sunday we stopped several places around the area to watch the water and smell the still-cool salty air. The last remnants of Winter and the fresh beginnings of Spring.
Busy Mom’s Bible – Week 2
Last week I spent a little time reading through my Busy Mom’s Bible. I find the tips in this bible very interesting and helpful. Just the inspriation a Busy Mom needs in this day and age.
This week I spent a little time reviewing the second devotional quick-set. This section is on Protection. The key word is Protected and the Bible verse is “The Lord will fight for you; you need only be still.” Exodus 14:14
It speaks of how the Israelites were afraid to leave Egypt but Moses convinced them to stand strong and allow the Lord to fight for them. It tells us to stand still and allow the Lord to fight for us, as the Isrealites had allowed Him to fight for them. In all things, God is there and He is standing and carrying us through all Life’s turmoils. Even as the Lord appears NOT to hear or be around, in the end he is always there, always guiding, carrying and leading His children through this life. Protecting us from Evil and harm, even in the times it seems Evil and harm are all around.
Protection, as a Mother protects her child, God protects us, His children. What a great thing His protection is! What a blessing to have protection from someone as awesome as our Heavenly Father!
Ahhh Thursday {March 5, 2010}
My day started a little late because I wasn’t feeling too well. I awoke to three cute smiling faces.
My handsome son had fixed his sisters breakfast, and done a great job making their cereal.
Once I got up and around, feeling a little better, my sweet princess decided we needed a dress up day. She picked out make-up for her Momma and helped me fix it up. She chose a lovely pink bow for my hair. My son brushed my hair “smooth” and the extra attention really felt nice. I picked out my favorite pink pants and a couple of tank tops, since I was just doing odds and ends in the house.
My princess chose to wear her blue and white dress today and use a purple bow in her hair. She brushed her own hair (I’m so proud of this new achievement of hers) and put her bow in. Then we did her makeup. What a gorgeous girl I have!
Overall, it was a terrific Thursday, relaxing and full of love. We sang and danced and made memories today that cannot be replaced. And what beautiful memories they are.
Thank God It’s Monday {Thoughts from Me}
Ahh, Mondays. They get a bad wrap every week. The beginning of the work week. Start of hard labor. First day after a relaxing weekend.
Over time people have come to dread even hearing the word Monday. They cringe when they even hear the word.
I’ve decided to give Monday back it’s greatness or rather it’s gratefulness by Thanking God It’s Monday.
Thank God It’s Monday…
Thank God for beautiful smiles.
Thank God for soft, giggles after a tickle session.
Thank God for ABC’s and 123’s, repeated over and over again.
Thank God for eating Basgetti and Smarshmellows when we get the urge.
Thank God for all the Mac N Cheese.
Thank God for wiggling toes and this Little Piggy who went to a market.
And Thank God for the chance to love, to live and to laugh every day…
Including Mondays.
What do you Thank God and Monday for?
