Thank you God!!!

It appears that the last child. Hannah loung has been found all the way in plackamans parish louisiana. Her clothing and shoes were still on her. She traveled a long way, I believe God had his hand on her. I am so thankful that she was found yesterday, because the family has been trying to get the mom to have the funeral services for the other children... and I just thought it would be terrible if they buried the others without their sister. So today they are all together in God's rocking chair. How wonderful does that sound? I know their mother would rather them be here on this earth, as would all of Alabama, be that as it may.... That is just not the case. Sad... I know... I have cried for these kids and their family. THis crime was just senseless... How could that monster look at those kids one by one and throw them off.... He will have to look at the face of God one day, and God himself will deal with him, one way or the other.

On a diffent note.


I have finaly found a scan and stitch for windows vista... sooo I will get back to scaning my layouts soon.....


THis past saturday, RAndi had a cheerleading competition...and they did great! I was very proud of her and the whole team. They Got first place, although the team they were supposed to go up against, dropped down a level right before they went on. so we were up against ourselves. but, it was a nice practice run. We have 3 more national competitions .. 2 in march and our last big one in panama city fl.... in april and then we are done... woo ooo.... until next season.:)

I guess that is all I have for you now,

Just continue to pray for the loung family.... they really need it. especially as they prepare to bury those babies bodies..... trust me.... it really is a hard thing to do... for a parent saying goodbye to a child is without a doubt devastating to their heart. Trust me... I know.

SOMBER DAY

Today.... the search teams found the 3rd baby thrown off the Dauphin Island Bridge,there is one more left to be found. I am praying that they find that baby girl and bring her home, so their mother can have some closure. Speaking from someone who has lost a child, Closure is important. just to say goodbye and pray with them one more time brings great comfort to a grieving parent.

So SPECIFICALLY tonight I ask that you pray that the last of her babies is found so they can be put to rest. Also, pray for their mother.


God give her strenth and bring her peace in this terrible tragedy. Let her feel your presence. and surround her with your angels wings. comfort her God. In JESUS NAME. amen



God bless you all

PRAYERS NEEDED ASAP

Today in Dauphin Island... not too far from Mobile...they found the second of 4 babies thrown off the very tip top of the Dauphin Island Bridge by there FAther. It is just a sad sad sad day. I was praying that he had given the kids to someone and was lying about throwing them off.. but, sadly that is not the case. I know they are with Jesus right now... and he is rocking them to sleep tonight, however even thought there is comfort in knowing that they are not in pain.. I know the pain their Mother feels is unbeirable. they were only 4 months, 1,2,3, and soo young... it makes you wonder why they were taken from this world so soon... Only GOD knows... So tonight Please remember the family in your prayers and also for the searchers who are working diligently to find the other 2 children.

God does hear you. He answers prayers. just ask in his name. and it shall be done.

Here is why I know that God does listen and answers prayers.... sometimes we have to ask for specific things...

So for the last ... I dont know... month or so.... I have been worried about my land in the back yard perking so that we could get a conventional sewer system instead of a mound system.... it was really iffy...

the perk guy was out yesterday... and i was just so antsy I had to go and talk to him. I asked him if the ground perked for a conventional or for a mound system and he said THIS GROUND WILL DEFINATELY PERK FOR A CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM... I immediately thanked him and ran to the house the whole way THANKING GOD FOR ANSWERING MY PRAYERS AND LISTENING TO ME. He is a gracious and a giving GOD ,,, TO HIM I OWE EVERYTHING.... without him I am nothing..


giving GOD the glory..

Back to school for me and the kids.




o.k. ... soo It is time for school again. I am back at Bishop, I am excited because I got a scholarship to be in the chorus. It is hard going 4 days a week. but I am thankful for it because it pays for everything except books. which is a blessing. I am trying to get into south this summer to take a class becuase i have to have 12 hours at south to be able to get into the teaching program. I am hoping to get a head start. I tell you.... being in school has made me so happy. I am finally persuing my dream of being a COLLEGE GRADUATE! THe kids are all doing great.... next month I get to pre register kyli - addison for kindergarten. She is soo ready to start school and ride the bus like Brynli. As for Chaz I am hoping to enroll him in pre school at Haven woods baptist church. THe girls really loved it there when the went and they have a great program, I just have to have him potty trained... which right now he could care less about!!!! insert mad smiley face here....

I am in the process of trying to get my mom moved out here. she really needs to be near me and the kids. she is very lonely. JUsT PRAY THAT THE GROUND PERKS FOR A CONVENTIONAL SEWER SYSTEM. It is more expensive to put in a mound system...

well.. I guess for now that is all i have to say..... I am going to try and post some layouts here ... wish me luck.. i hope blogger behaves today..

God bless you all...



The first layout is of my twin sister... this is my favorite picture of her.. it shows her free spirit ... I want to be just like her one day.. she truly is not afraid of being herself...( I love you celery)
