HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JENNIFER!

I can't really put in to words what you mean to me, what all the good times have meant, what having you there has meant. All I can say is I love you very much and I am blessed to know you and have you in my life. I think back to the Michael W. Smith song "Friends are Friends forever if the Lord's the Lord of them" We are forever friends no doubt. Have a wonderful birthday, you're the best!!!!!

Busy, Busy!
Where does the time go? I haven't posted in a week and the time has just flown by!! In a span of a week I have attended a funeral for a precious friend. Celebrated Mother's Day by attending a picnic with my grandmother, taking my mother-in-law and mother out to dinner and celebrated another friend's completion of a master's degree. Last night my ladies prayer group met at my house for our monthly meeting. We always have a great time of fellowship. We had voiced goals last time of things we were going to work on for the month until our next meeting and I think all of us had met some of our goals. In this past week I think the Lord has really emphasized to me how blessed I am to have such special people in my life. How blessed I was to know Mrs. Becker and the wonderful example she lived -- how she adored her family. How blessed I am to have the example of a Godly Grandmother and Mother in my life. And the list goes on and on. Thank you Lord for all your many blessings.

Bagpipes, caps, gowns...
It's that time of year again...Graduation... And wow is my building quiet. It's amazing how quiet it is when all those freshman leave the building!! I have to admit this year I got a little teary eyed. Of course every year when the Bagpipes lead the graduates in it brings tears to my eyes. But this year I started seeing graduates that I had established relationships with. One after another. It's amazing to see how they've changed in just 4 short years. And to know I had some small part in their lives. Hopefully, for the better. It was a little more difficult not getting emotional. The service was really nice. I enjoyed being a part of it in a small way. CONGRATULATIONS GRADUATES -- GOD BLESS!

These 2 people both were very special in my life and had profound influence on my life. I miss them dearly.
"There is a time for everything, a season for every activity under heaven: a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and time to uproot, a time to kill and time to heal, a time to tear down and time to build, a time to weep and time to laugh, a time to mourn and time to dance, a time to scatter stones and time to gather them, a time to embrace and time to refrain, a time to search and time to give up, a time to keep and time to throw away, a time to tear and time to mend, a time be silent and time to speak, a time to love and time to hate, a time for war and time for peace."

Floating turd
Ok, so the title of my blog is Mommy's World so from time to time you have to expect 'gross' Mommy stories. So...here you go. Some of you won't find this all that gross. Last night, my wonderful husband had already fed Alex and had him in the tub (I had to work late). So, I was sitting in the bathroom with him letting him play with his toys well, I wasn't paying real close attention but I did notice that he stood up, turned around facing the tub and started well, grunting...next thing I know there is a rather large turd coming from his bottom. There just wasn't enough time to get him over the toilet. Needless to say, we had a floating turd in the tub. Yep, Alex's first floating turd. I remember that happening at least once with John. Props again to my AWESOME husband, who's just the best Daddy every - he disposed of the floating turd and cleaned the tub while I cleaned up and put a diaper on Alex. John thought the whole event was quite comical. And honestly it was.

Think on these things...
We've been studying Philippians in Sunday School. On Sunday we were discussing how we shouldn't worry and how we should concentrate and think on these things: whatever is true, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-
When you think about it God gives us many, many true, lovely, admirable excellent and praiseworthy things to think about we are so blessed. All I have to do is look at my 2 beautiful children to know this. How easily we forget and slip back in to worrying about the silly things of life that we can't control. How much better it is to concentrate on our blessings and especially what is lovely and true.
