What a great weekend!

Jackson turned two today and it has been another one of those bittersweet moments of motherhood. We had a birthday party for him yesterday with family and some of his friends and it was wonderful. I think Jackson had a great time and was overwhelmed with all his new items to play with. He got a swing set, riding John Deere tractor, golf set, tons of coloring books, colors, reading books and a gigantic stuffed tiger to wrestle around in the floor with. I think I will have to make sure that the gigantic stuffed elephants stay on top of the tiger....(for all you LSU and Auburn fans! LOL!!) It truly was a great day filled with all the Nemo you can handle! I can not praise God enough for blessing me with Jackson and Coleman. I will try and post pictures soon of the cake and party. I am too tired tonight to figure out where the USB cord is so that I can post pics. I hope you all have had a safe weekend and we are praying for all of you facing the imposing hurricanes. I am off to do some laundry that got bypassed this weekend during all the birthday activities. Say a prayer I don't get lost in the laundry room! LOL!

Operator Error!!!!

Okay so I got the mobile app thinking that I might find time to post more stories and thoughts and some how I made two old post into drafts!  Since this blog is basically a family journal for me and I want to keep each post I am reposting them.  So when you see stories about babies don't think we have had a time warp!  It is just me reposting old post so I don't lose them!

What a morning!!!!

Original Post 8/30/2008 It is just now 8:11 AM and my morning has already been chaotic! I woke up to Coleman crying ready to eat at 5:30....This is 30 minutes after I should have been up getting ready. I was just too tired I guess because I never heard the alarm clock. So out of bed I jump and run downstairs and get a bottle for Coleman and realize that Jackson is now crying too. Where is Trey in all this?!?!?! Still asleep! How is it that a mom hears every cry and a dad has selective hearing? At this point I run back upstairs and get Trey awake and tell him he has to feed Coleman and then I go to check on Jackson and he is hungry so back downstairs we go with sheep, his stuffed animal that is his best friend to cozy up to at night. We get downstairs and he wants a banana and some milk. I get all this together and then we start back upstairs and I see a bunny outside the house through one of the sidelights next to the door and I stop everything because I know Jackson would love to se...

5:22

Sorry for the delay in posting this as a sequel to my last post on May 22 nd . I got home on that particular Friday night and I laid down with Jackson to try and get him to sleep and the verse Galatians 5:22 popped in my head. I thought that was weird since I had woke up at 5:22 that morning...and as I put it together today...it was the 5 th month and the 22 nd day! Coincidence? I think not. So being that I am the mom of two little ones. I ended up collapsing and waking up at 5:22 Saturday morning. My first reaction was OH NO how did I sleep in here all night? This is not good. Jackson will expect this! Where is Trey? Why didn't he wake me up? Then I realize it is 5:22 AM and God is saying Galatians 5:22 in my Student bible that moved with me to Nashville. So at this point I go to the bonus room open up the bible to Galatians and read a section on the fruits of the spirit and then I go to the verses and find "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindne...
