Overwhelmed

I can tell how overwhelmed I am by how little I feel like writing on here. It's like, my brain doesn't even know where to begin so we just avoid. (The same goes for a messy kitchen!)

I'm in this strange place of loving life and having contentment in Christ, while also wrestling with issues of disappointment. I don't know how God wants me to deal or what He's going to teach me, but I do have total peace in His wisdom and ability to perform His will.

For now I'm quietly and internally letting my heart be molded and my ideals reformed.

Psalms 31:3 Since you are my rock and my fortress, for the sake of your name, lead and guide me.

Belated Birthday Re-cap

My little baby is 2!!!


When did that happen?!


Parker's birthday was the day after Thanksgiving this year. On his birthday we decorated the house with streamers and Sherif Woody pictures for him to wake up to. Then we played outside for a while and visited with his Nana, Papa, and Great Nana. It was a really sweet day, just soaking up our family and being proud of our big man!


The next day we had a little brunch birthday party for him. We had egg casserole, fruit, bagels, and coffee - plus cherry bars for singing "happy birthday." It was just family: Nana, Papa, Great Nana, Great Grandma, Aunt Emy, & Uncle Bobby. Parker got spoiled with lots of football and Toy Story goodies & he loved ALL his gifts! It was a really fun time and the perfect amount of party for a 2 year old!




I am so incredibly thankful that God has let me be Parker's mom. He is the best, sweetest thing in the whole world and he teaches me so much about myself everyday! I can't wait to see him grow and continue to see his personality develop more and more.
Mommy and Daddy love you very much buddy, and we pray we will show you God's love your whole life! You are precious to us and to Him and we thank God for you!
