Relaxing for a day

What does a mother of 4 do when she needs a break from the pressures of the world? Sew. Go for a ride with her hunky husband. Play with her babies, and have a relaxing BBQ. Today was-bliss. Bring it on Monday.

A sweet moment

Among sisters; snuggled deep in mammas bed. It's softly raining outside, a warm little breeze blowing. What a beautiful moment in my home.

Baby in a bucket

I put Fina in a bucket while I cleaned the backyard. Then, I gave her to her daddy. Lol she is so stinking cute!!!!

When opportunity knocks...

Answer it.
Sweet old man sitting by himself pondering life; is a great oppertunity o preach gods word.

Bella's sunflower

Bella planted some sun flowers this season. Her new "plant babies" have shown themselves today. She of coarse, flooded them with love and water. She can't wait to see what this little plant will become, and I can't wait to watch her experience this.

What is it about a sunny day....

That Makes me want to do laundry?
Every time the I hear it's going to be a sunny day, I run to get all my laundry up on the line. Maybe it's because I love the smell of sun and air on my clothes, or maybe it's because I love the way little dresses look flying in the breeze. Maybe it's because I love conserving every dime; so we can spend our money or more spiritual things. I love hanging laundry. And considering my husband is so logical, I even have a line in the garage for rainy days or huge comforters that need to hang for a week.

Family study

Tonight my husband said "ok. Get your shoes on." and we all ran around looking for shoes, blankets, and anything we may need for an unexpected trip outdoors. He opened up with prayer, stuffed 2 babies into a double stroller, and began a discussion about being disconnected. Which led to the apostles preaching without electronics. In turn led to a discussion about the beginning of the bible, an current website. He brought out the benefits of electronics and the cons. We walked and talked an laughed and considered concepts. We picked flowers, and when we showed up back at our driveway, he closed with prayer.
What a wonderful family study.

Grammatically incorrect

As it turns out; my predicate was misused. On my last post I wrote
"something was incapable in his abilities" when I should of wrote "He was incapable." because "something" would refer to the Almighty As less than "someone".

And for this correction dear detail orientated reader I simply say:

Fo' chizzle my nizzle. :)

My correction

To my "amazement" I've been corrected. Turns out, writing about how amazed you are about Jehovah's abilities to help are-- not that amazing. Lol. It was brought to my attention that my post sounded like I was amazed that Jehovah helped me. As if, he couldnt, or had not previously, or maybe something was incapable in his abilities. Oh no dear confused reader, I was simply AMAZED Jehovah saw me. I was in wonder that he had time to help me, and I was humbled by his infinite capabilities to help all. And I'm stretched thin at 4 kids.

:) happy corrections.

My day started out...

Upside down, while running backwards.
But my faithful friend reminded me of faith; so I prayed 800 times to Jehovah begging him to help me this morning. And to my amazement, things worked out so good!! With the help of so many beautiful sisters, serving Jehovah was so enjoyable.

I won't say that I answered wrong at the service meeting. I'll just say that I was very...enthusiastic.

Lol

None the less it was a WONDERFUL day.

Sit down and be quiet

What's wrong with a little wiggling with homework? As long as it gets done right? I think the real question is; is the chair helping or hindering him?

Warrior feet

I was so impressed by our loving warriors in our hall. They were so sweet to my situation of 2 young children. One pioneer sister even said "go by the children". I was so encouraged by their patience and love.

My beautiful day

Today I was out in service from 8-2 pm. It was a lot of fun. Bella widened out, going out in service with different ones. She kept saying "knock knock, no one home." it was a beautiful day weather wise, and we found a lot of people home. A family just got back from Bethel, and had a lot of wonderful things to say about it. I am so happy to have served Jehovah fully of my capabilities today. This is the week of the circuit overseer, so I'm sure it's going to be a good week!

The way my husband gets down.

He's needed some extra love...
And found it in the form of ice cream and cookies. ;)

My beautiful life

I have come to appreciate the smallest seconds of time. A child giggling. A baby cooing. Bella having an argument with a lady bug. Billy having a funny face contest with himself in the mirror. Koral Dancing to music in the shower... There are so many reasons to laugh... I thank Jehovah for my blessings, several times a day.

Bella

Yesterday out in service, we took a brake to feed the ducks. Bella had a blast. She even took on the mean goose, and won. :) Koral watched in awe, and then concluded that Bella was crazy. Lol

Goodbye brace face

Korals braces are officially gone. All that's left are perfectly strait teeth. To celebrate daddy bought her the prettiest candy apple available.

Service, in the rain

It's gray, gloomy, raining and sweats look soooo comfy. After laundry, dishes, tidying, packing 3 kids, unpacking 3 kids, loosing the keys, finding the keys and 2 unsightly explosions from 2 small children, and a Ortho appointment ......9 am came around. So many reasons to stay home. So many reasons to NOT go out. Besides, it's just easier not to. I called my warrior husband and said "Am I crazy? I must of bumped my head thinking I can do this." he said "You don't have to do anything but show up, Jehovah will do the rest." and he was right. (What's new?) lol.
My van carried 2 pioneers, 2 potential pioneers (myself and Koral) and 2 little ones that were learning Jehovah's way. These are the moments you can't buy. These are the things that show our children whats right in life.

But to be real, I'm wearing sweats and a baggy tshirts while I write this. Lol

Satan ain't got nothin on this mama! :)

I've had a bad day....

Hi. My name is Bella. A few days ago, I cracked my eye on the edge of a table, leaving me with a blue and green shiner. Then, yesterday, I fell, and scraped my leg and got a Barbie band aid. Today, I had surgery on both my trigger thumbs, and an IV put in my foot. But did that get me down? No. Life was good. Life was fine. Do you know what upset me? When the dr wrote on my palms. He marked the point of incision, and I cried and cried and cried. I mean, does this man have ANY idea how much trouble I get in for drawing on my hands? I wrote a formal letter of complaint, to have all blue removed from the surgical unit. Couldn't he of used a sticker?

Needless to say, life was fine, until that man pulled out that stupid BLUE PEN!

Love,

Bella
