THIS WEEK

(March 25 - April 1, 2010)

 

GRATEFUL........

Last Saturday, my daddy celebrated his 64th birthday.  I'm so GRATEFUL to God for blessing me with such an amazing daddy!  

JOYFUL.............

Mason brings me JOY all the time and for so many different reasons.  This particular week, it was because he learned to do another impersonation.  But you'll probably never guess who he turned in to.  It was The Swamp Man from the show Axe Men.  I can barely understand that dude but when I heard Mason sayin', "HairWayGoooo," it was as if The Swamp Man came to the Carolinas for a visit. 

 HAPPY.............

Yesterday I posted about Mason's newest favorite past-time, T-ball.  He looked so HAPPY out there.  And when he's HAPPY....then I'm HAPPY!

APPRECIATIVE........... 

I've always had a close bond with my sisters.  But since becoming a mommy, the bond has definitely gotten tighter between me and my sister Annette.  With only a three month difference, we got to experience motherhood for the first time together.  When it comes to our boys, we've done most of everything together, from Lamase to T-ball.  I'm so APPRECIATIVE that God gave us the opportunity of sharing motherhood side-by-side with each other.

ELATED..............

Nothing ELATED me more this week than hearing my little 3yr old spell his name.  I tried to coach him through it, but he'd just stop me right in my tracks and say, "No mommy! I wanna do it by myself!"  And he sure did!  Makes me wonder what else this little rabbit's gonna pull out of his hat........
