New Haircut:)

So I realized I had been wearing my hair in a pony or with a braid all summer long....... So I went and got a new haircut:)

Remembering....

Today, five years ago... God decided he needed an extra angel in heaven. My friend Allison's father passed away five years ago today. He had cancer. He was one of the most amazing, imaginative, smart, outgoing, nicest, lovable, creative, one of a kind man! I'm sure he is keeping extra busy in heaven! Allison is a spitting image of her dad! She carries many of the same characteristics as him as well! He left an amazing legacy thru her and her sister Katie and their mom Susie. Please keep them all in your prayers today:)

Ronnie.. I know your super proud of your girls.. they are pretty amazing!

"I am like a falling star who has finally found his place next to another in a lovely constellation, where we will sparkle in the heavens forever."

Life....

On the way to work today, I heard one of the commercials for Asbury United Methodist church. They have their pastor on this commercial give "Perceptions of Tom Harrison." Today's perceptions was about Alzheimer's. It made me cry while I was driving because at the end, he said, I am Kathy's brother Tom. Kathy is his sister who is struggling with Alzheimer's. It was talking about how life must be enjoyed and never taken for granted.

It got me thinking about life and everything life has in store for us. It also, got me wondering what God has in store for my life. It made me worry... what if this happens or this happens... how will I cope what will I do, but I found peace in knowing... God has a plan for everyone. It may not be the plan that we have but it is what he wants for us and He would never lead us astray and leave as alone. I could sit and worry and ponder what is going to happen over the next ten years or I could chose to Let Go and Let God and know that everyday is a Gift. One that we should open everyday and enjoy to the hilt. I try to live everyday to fullest of full and I hope that by doing that I am enjoying everything God has given me. I know some days I am not as positive or upbeat about day to day events but I definitely try to enjoy the little things....

Here are ten things about today that I am grateful for......

1. My loving husband, who every morning says to me when I am all dressed for work and ready to go... You look beautiful today... what would I ever do without him? He is amazing and I am soo sooo sooo grateful for him

2. For the well being of my family and for just my family in general. My family is definitely amazing and I don't know what I would do without them. There is no love like the love between a mother and father and their children. I am so blessed to have such wonderful parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins.

3. The roof that is over my head. There are millions of people all over the world who do not have the luxury of having a home or even a bed to sleep in. For my home I am so thankful.

4. For the car that I drive to work everyday

5. For the chirping of the birds... Birds definitely live everyday to the fullest. Always chirping and singing and always happy. One can learn a lot from bird watching

6. For the snuggles I get from my dogs Halley and Daisy. They bring a smile to my face every time I see them and think about them. I never thought I could love a dog like I do Halley and Daisy. Dogs are definitely a mans best friend.

7. For the friends that I have. God definitely blessed me with wonderful friends. I look forward to chatting and iming with them daily. They make everyday amazing and interesting.

8. For the sun.... definitely a random thing to be thankful for.... but I love when the sun is out and shining. Makes my smile a little bigger.

9. For my job. Very thankful my dad took a risk and hired me. I enjoy seeing my mom everyday and having her be bop into my office... looking all cute and happy. She brings a smile to my face daily!

10. Last but not least... thankful for my life! Thank you God for making me and for blessing me with the most amazing life a girl/woman could ever ask for. Without you... life would not be the same and would not be what it is today for me and for everyone!

I hope everyone takes time today... to enjoy and be grateful for the little things in life.

Happy Monday!

Thursday Night

I had the privilege of babysitting our nephew Grant on Thursday night! I love him soo much! He was so well behaved and so much fun! He says the sweetest stuff!!! First I went and picked him up at his house... he was ready to leave with me (which made me excited)As we were driving down riverside her said "NO Dwight and Kathy's!" Could he be any smarter.... he knew we were going the same way he goes everyday to his school!!! While we were in the car we sang the OSU song.. RIDE RIDE RIDE RIDE....... I let him just blurt it out and we were soo loud... I LOVE IT:) Best Aunt Award goes toooo.....drum roll please.... AUNT EMMY:)

First we went to Utica Square and listened to music and ate carrots and cantaloupe! While we were there he played with my lil cousins and Grant is really quite the sharer! He shared all his toys and was soo well behaved! He even danced a bit with me! Then we were off to Wendy's and ate dinner and headed to Target! He LOVED target and knew it was target when we pulled up! What a smart kid:) I let him pick out any toy he wanted... He got a Thomas the train mini laptop and some Diego fruit snacks or "gummies." We then went and got Halley and headed back to his house! He was entertaining Halley and I, during bath time! He was soo happy Halley was there! Then we got ready for bed and read some books! Again, very excited that Halley was in the bed with us! I tried my hardest to have himself by the time Chris and Libby were home but he wanted his mommy and daddy!! When Halley and I left he gave Halley a kiss!

Great job Chris and Libby he is an absolute doll and we love him soo much!!Thanks for letting me babysit him! It was such a pleasure!
