Rambling on and on and on

I have so many things rambling around in my head. I'll give you just a few.

**Daniel lost his tooth Friday. The Tooth Fairy still has not visited our home. This morning David woke up and his tooth fell out right into his hand. Now what is the Tooth Fairy to do?? Come tonight? Won't that make Daniel feel bad? Won't that make him feel like the Tooth Fairy likes David more than him? Should the Tooth Fairy come to Daniel tonight and wait 5 days to pay David for his tooth? Oh, I just don't know! I'm thinking that the Tooth Fairy may need to come clean. But, they're just nine years old. It seems a bit early. I don't like the Tooth Fairy!

**Yesterday I started thinking about believing God. Sure, I believe God. I have faith. But do I REALLY believe God is going to provide for my needs? Do I REALLY believe God is going to take care of me no matter what HE sends my way? Do I REALLY believe God? My head says yes! My heart says maybe. Am I the only one? I have so many friends that have hurts in their lives right now. My prayer list is running over. Do I believe that God can REALLY answer my requests? Am I the only one? Please tell me no!

**I think I may have taken on more than I can handle. I noticed last night that I have 10 events that I need to oversee over the next 3 months. That may not seem a lot to you, but it is to me. The logistics still have to be worked out, people still need to be contacted, decisions still need to be made. I think it may be more than I should have signed up for. UGH!

**Jillian Michaels, of Biggest Loser fame, is kicking my tail. She is not nice to me. We have started a little work-out class at church. We started doing Zumba and realized that we had been Baptists for too long and we just couldn't move like that. So, we started the 30 day Shred Monday. Well, they started Monday, I started Tuesday. And after two days of shredding, my legs hurt! It hurts to sit down and to stand back up. Oh, the pain! But I love jumping jacks and crunches, this may just be my kind of work-out. It is just day 3 though. I'm sure I'll change my mind!

**Stephen has eaten 4 of the last 5 meals away from home. And let me tell you that I'm a bit jealous about it. Not bitter. But a bit jealous. I'm thinking that since this is Thursday and the Taco Truck is in town, I may go get myself a taco. It's not the same as Whole Hog, Cracker Barrel, and wherever else he ate ( I quit asking) but it will do!

You made it to the end??? I'm glad you read my ramblings, it makes a girl feel better to know that she has been heard. Not understood, but heard!

Sorry you are feeling overwelmed. If it makes you feel better, I am too. Wait ... that probably doesn't help since I am some of you "back-up." :)

A Blind Date & Leaving Comments

8 years ago today I met this sweet man in the picture above. We met on a blind date in the Bluff City (aka- Memfrica). He and I were simply going out to shut up his stepmother and my sister, who had decided that we were meant to be together from one simple fridge photo and a dog named Abby. Little did we know they would be able to pat themselves on the back for the rest of their lives . I am so glad we both agreed to go out for that one date on New Years Eve 2001 because I have had him in my life everyday since that crazy night at my cousin Hollye's back door when he arrived to pick me up to find a baby on my hip that he thought was mine. I remember those beautiful blue eyes and how they about popped out of his head as he stood at the door wondering why no one had mentioned my child. That baby on my hip was Claire. She was 1 then and had just gone number 2 in her diaper right before he rang the bell. She had Styrofoam all over her and me from playing in Christmas boxes. Needless t

All Aboard The Birthday Polar Express

  Can you believe Henry Patton will be 4 years old tomorrow?! Neither can we. We celebrated his birthday last weekend with his first all boy party, polar express style. I had so much fun preparing for it, as you can probably tell! My mother who is never at a loss for words said it looked like Polar Express threw up in my house. She was SO right and we loved it! We had a breakfast pajama party with 7 three and four year old boys. It was such a fun time.   I had his pajamas monogrammed with a train and his name. He loved them and I liked how they sort of looked like the ones on the movie. Henry loved all the bells I had everywhere. There is no doubt we believe at this house. We had the jingle loud and proud!   I had his invitation made from a shop on Etsy and I was very pleased with them. One of his little friends came to the door ready for me to punch his ticket. It was so cute. I ran to get a hole punch and punched it for him. Every good party has to have go
