Just too Funny For Words

Okay all, I just had to share this will all of our friends. This is really too funny. On the 11th, Miss LisaMarie and I were shopping at Walmart. I was looking at some clothes suitable for wearing to the gym...gasp, yes, I am going to the gym these days...when our daughter wandered off about 15 feet to do her own "shopping". Well, anyway, she picked out this rather sexy white see-thru nightie and proceeded to yell at me, "Look Mom, it is xl and it is beautiful". Now mind you, I am dying thinking that she wants to get me to buy it, but the she yells, "I can wear it to church, it is beautiful".

As calmly as I can I am telling her to just put it back as we are not getting it. She is begging me and keeps on waving it in the air saying she wants it for church. Finally I get firm with her and tell her to hang it back up now, to which she just replies, "I will just ask my daddy to buy it for me".

I am dying, twelve shades of red when a lady laughing hard says to me that she wants to go to my church.

Well, things calmed down and her daddy did not buy it for her, matter of fact, when we told him the story, he mentioned something about his heart and it was not strong enough for this...LOL.
Bless his little heart...:o)

JUNE 30, 1978

HAPPY 30th ANNIVERSARY!!!! How does one even begin to express the joy that I feel in my heart and soul for being blessed to have been married to the most wonderful man for 30 years? The bottom line, I can't Anything I write here is a feeble attempt to try to convey what is in my heart. My cup truly runneth over. My wishes, that both of my parents were alive to see this day. My daddy came close, my mom not so. They had their doubts about Merrill and in the end they both knew that he was all that I ever really needed and in him I could really have everything I ever dreamed of. How does one really reflect over the past 30 years of life. Life in and of itself is just amazing. We all go through up and downs. We all face day to day challenges that at times we are not sure we will ride it out. Many times we lose the battles, but in the end we really win the war. We have had to say goodbye to so many people that we loved and cherished. Some of those went in a proper time frame, many of tho

JERICHO'S LIFE MATTERS

These three little words that I posted on Facebook evoked a lot of emotions. Jericho's life matters. Why did I post those words?? Reality, Jericho had emergency surgery on July 8th. As I am writing this, he is still in PICU on a vent with no end in near sight. He is one sick boy, not a little boy, but soon to be an 18 year old man. I felt that the ones who should care about Jericho, did not. I felt that the ones that should be visiting Jericho were not. Bottom line, I spoke out as a mom in pain, hurting and tired. But you know what, God is in control. A wonderful person reminded me not to let negative thoughts enter my mind. She was and is right, but still, Jericho's life matters. Jericho has Cornelia de Lange. He also has PICA. PICA is what put him here. It is the uncontrolled need to eat things that are non food items. We spend each and every day pulling things out of Jericho's mouth. Even the younger kids know to holler when they see Jericho trying to eat something. It i
