The Tooth Story

Here's Morgan's tooth story:

For many of you who do not know me that well there are two things that I can't stand the sight of, 1. BLOOD, and 2. VOMIT. The other major problem is when I see blood it makes me want to vomit. Very, very bad comenation. My husband knows this about me so he knows these are his areas to do. The major problem with this plan is as all of us wives know these blood and vomit never come when our husbands are home. So begins the tooth story. Morgan has had this loose tooth for months it has just been hanging there. Totally gross. On Tuesday night she came down from bed and told me she wanted to pull it out. Not good timing Morgan daddy won't be home till 10:00 we still have another hour. She told me not to worry she would take care of it all. Alright you go girl. And that was what she did she pulled it out. When she came out of the bathroom she told me, mom there was alot of blood, but don't worry I have cleaned it all up off the white rug and the counters. Great thank you so much. So there's the tooth story and my hate towards blood.

Thanks

Thank you all for the wonderful encouraging words. Priscilla was right when she said that when things are going smoothly in our lives we don't really call out for the Lord. She didn't really say it like that, but that is the way my little brain processed it. I am in that good time in my life where things are running smoothly. It is during those times that I still need to rely on the Lord and allow Him to be close. Thank you again for the words.

Sunday

It's funny because when I heard about the blogging everyday for a month I said no way can I do that. I still know that I won't be able to do it all month because we will be out of town this month, but I am going to try and do it as much as I can. I really enjoy the time of writing down my thoughts.
My friend Leslie is going to do a spiritual Sunday and I thought that is a great way to talk about what God is doing in my life.
A couple of friends and I meet every other week to do a bible study. This has been a great accountability for me in my walk with the Lord. They are a great group of gals who listen and challenge me. Last week Leslie asked us how we are all doing spiritually. That was a great question for me. I answered honestly, I am going through a dry time. What does that mean? It means I feel very distant from the Lord. I know we have many seasons in our spiritual walk with God and I realize this is just one of them for me. In the past when I would go through these times I would just put God in the back seat, my prayer life would stop, and my time in the word would come to a halt. During this time I have decided it is in these dry times that God wants me to be praying and reading the word even more. God is not far, I am the one who is far. God is always there for me, I just need to reach out for him and let him in my day to day.
Thank you so much Leslie for asking me where I am spiritually. You are truly a blessing from the Lord.

Morgan's hair

THE HAIR CUT

BEFORE AFTER

Morgan was born with a THICK head of hair. I have been trying for the last few years to get her to cut it off. She has been dead set against it. She loved her long hair and wanted to keep it forever. Up until Thursday she said she would never cut her hair. On Thursday evening she informed me that she wanted to cut her hair. I wanted to take her right that minute in fear that she would change her mind. We had to wait till the next day, but it worked. I asked her what made her change her mind and she said because her best friend Morgan has short hair.

Halloween

Halloween was a blast at our house this year. Morgan was a rock star and Brandan was Bob the builder, of course. Yes, my husband is wearing a mullet and his jacket from when he was in junior high. The scary thing is when I fell in love with him he was wearing that jacket. My how we have changed. I hope all of you had a great family day.
