Healing Nicely



Josiah received a 2ND degree burn to his right hand 2 weeks ago from a motorcycle muffler. Our good friend was over showing us his very nice, very new motorcycle. Jaden had set the baby down to admire it and the first thing he does is reach over and touch the hottest part on the bike. He did not cry or anything.. well... not till about 10 minutes later.. Then there was not a thing that you could do to get him to stop. I tried cold water, ice, codeine... NOPE so I took him to the ER. They put some Burn Free ointment on his hand and told me to keep it wrapped and bring him back the next day for a re-check. ( The codeine took about 40 minutes to knock him out!)I did as they said.. Next day they gave me some silver something or other cream and had me put it on 2 times daily and keep it wrapped. That silver stuff is great it took out all the burn except on his palm. Now he is able to use his hand again... It looks great! Praise God that it has healed so well and did not ever get infection.

Happy Birthday to............



Joshua! He is 3 years old today!! Man does time fly right by! His favorite color is green. He loves trains. He always wants to pray when we have devotions or bless he food. He is a very busy boy. Now, when I say boy.. I mean all boy, total boy. He carries around bugs. He will put them down to use the bathroom and that is about the only time he will.
I took this picture Sunday at Church during his Sunday School class. I just love this guy. He has ran around all day today singing ..... Hapgy bifday to you, hapgy birfday make me cake... It is so cute. While I am teaching at the Academy he is over at a very dear friends house and they made a train cake together today. He had the best time. We are thinking of having a party maybe in a week or two.. Who knows. I know one thing though.. I love my little Joshua.

Welcome HOME... DALTON!


Dalton Brasel is on his way home right now, as I type, a full fledged MARINE!!! OORAH!
I can not wait to see him. His family left Tuesday, to drive to California to attend his graduation from the MCRD. He left on June 14Th, his graduation was today the 11Th of September. His mother was able to send me a picture message from her phone. So I got a look-see already of how much he has changed. Congrats to Dalton for finishing strong!

Happy Birthday to.....



ME! I have been having a wonderful day! Zippidy-do-dah-zippidy-ay! Yes, Mr. Blue Bird is on my shoulder.. :)
33! I keep having to ask Ryan just how old I am.. The other day we had a visitor come to our church. I was talking to her, you know doing the greetings to you type thing.. and she says to me.... Your Pastor said that there were young couples here??... (Like she was not talking to one of them?) I do not feel old at all. I think she was like 20?! Who knows. UPDATE ON ME:
Lots is going on. I am now a school teacher at a Private School. Calvary Baptist Academy, I love it! I am so busy now with school things, but it is so good for my kids. They are around other children all the time now. *BONUS* They learn daily the things of God. No one is picked on, no is made fun of. I tell you, it is lots of hard work to be a teacher ! I would not change it for anything!
Happy Birthday to ME!!

Happy Birthday to...

Jaden! He is now 12. We had a big surprise party for him with my family. What we did was we acted like we were just going to hang out as a family and watch a movie in me and Ryan's room. I turned up the TV all the way and everyone snuck in. When they were all there I told Jaden it was time to eat lunch and we would just have to watch the rest of the movie afterwards. Well when we walked out everyone yelled... SURPRISE! Jaden was so shocked he turned bright red. It was great fun.. Happy Birthday Buddy we love ya!
