THE SLUMBER PARTY!!!

Wow!!! Why did my mother let me have a slumber party ever year for my birthday. She must have had alot of patience. I'm still sleepy. The girls did not go to sleep until 3:00 a.m. But I guess all that matters is that Diamond enjoyed herself. The party consisted of 9 very active girls. lol. We went out to eat at Cheddars Restaurant (poor waiter), then we came back home and then the real party started. There was lots of laughs (screams), dancing, and anything that you can imagine. Here are a few pics from the party.

Awww Unit 60!!!!

Everyone that knows me, knows that I have a love / hate relationship with my job. Of course I'm blessed to have a job, but it can be very stressful at times being a supervisor. I really enjoy and care about my unit. We have a close relatioship and we get along (usually). lol. Anyway, the other day my unit sent me this to my house as a get well present. They are sooo sweet. They are the reason that I still work at that place.

Diamond's Birthday

Can you believe that my baby is going to be 9 years old in 15 more days? Wow!!! She is really growing into a young lady. I'm sooo proud of her. This year for her birthday, she wants to have a slumber party. HELP!!! We agreed that she could invite no more than 10 girls and they are going to go out to eat at Cheddars and party the rest of the night out at home. I'm looking for any volunteers out there that may want to help. lol. Here is Diamond's invitation for her birthday. (I deleted my address and phone number. You never know who has access to the internet). lol

School Prayer

Our Aunt Vangie sent this school prayer to the children so I wanted to share it with everyone. Thanks Vangie!!!

Father of all mercies

We ask that you would bless

the youngest and littlest of learners,

the most helpless and powerless of persons,

with Your infinite and loving mercy,

granting them the strength to learn, concentrate,

and act appropriately towards their teachers and fellow students.

We also ask that You would watch over them,

at home and at school

and grant them proper direction so that they may learn

of Your wonderful virtues.

We ask this in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ. Amen

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

Today is the first day of school. Diamond and KJ were both sooo excited about school this morning. My babies are growing up so fast. Before I know it they will be graduating from high school.

Prayer & Lortab

I pray every morning and night and sometimes a few times during the day. I'm having a hard time not being able to move and go like I please. This is real hard for me. I go back to the doctor on Tuesday for a follow up. I hate depending on people to help me. Kendall and the children have been wonderful and very helpful, but I want to do it on my own. Tomorrow is the first day of school for the children. Diamond will be in the 4th grade and KJ will be in Kindergarden. WOW!! I pray that they have a wonderful and blessed day. It will be a quite day in my house tomorrow. (YEAH!!) Diamond and KJ both just got punished from playing with their DS games (Super Mario Bros and MarioKart). It never fails that they fuss over this two games, so I took them away and they are not allowed to play with them. My patience is very short since I can't move around like I want to. Please keep me in your prayers.

First Day of School

The first day of school is only in 3 days. Diamond will be in 4th grade and KJ will be in Kindergarden. My babies are growing up so fast. It seems like yesterday that Diamond first started school. Yesterday Kendall was able to meet KJ's new teacher, and this afternoon Kendall will be able to meet Diamond's new teacher. I really wish I could be there, but of course I can't walk yet. The children are both excited about starting school. :)
