~He is Always There~

FOOTPRINTS

One night a man had a dream. He dreamed

he was walking along the beach with the LORD.

Across the sky flashed scenes from his life.

For each scene he noticed two sets of

footprints in the sand: one belonging

to him, and the other to the LORD.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him,

he looked back at the footprints in the sand.

He noticed that many times along the path of

his life there was only one set of footprints.

He also noticed that it happened at the very

lowest and saddest times in his life.

This really bothered him and he

questioned the LORD about it:

"LORD, you said that once I decided to follow

you, you'd walk with me all the way.

But I have noticed that during the most

troublesome times in my life,

there is only one set of footprints.

I don't understand why when

I needed you most you would leave me."




The LORD replied:



"My son, my precious child,


I love you and I would never leave you.


During your times of trial and suffering,


when you see only one set of footprints,


it was then that I carried you."

There has been so many times that I have had to remind myself of the one person whom is always in my corner.

~So Tired~

When does a mother ever get a break from it all? Everyday all day, all I hear is mommy will you, mommy can you, mommy can I, mommy mommy mommy, does it ever stop. OMG, I never thought I would get tired of hearing that word “mommy” but I think I have heard one time to many today. I hate days like this when it’s raining and the kids can’t go out and play. I thought today would be a perfect day for me to stay in and catch up on homework and work on my two essay that I have due in a couple weeks but no, I got very little done today. Well maybe tomorrow will be a better day, let’s hope anyway…..

~~Just Dont Know Anymore~~

Maybe someone out there can relate or maybe someone has some suggestions. I have been having issues with my pre-teen daughter and I just don’t know what to do anymore. I have tried the spankings, punishment (taking the cell phone, iPod, and all them other little gadgets) I have even threatened to send her to live with her father. Nothing seems to be helping and she knows I will not send her to her fathers to live with her father but I think I’m going to have to call her bluff. I know when I was her age I probably went through the rebellion stage to but for some reason I don’t think I was that rebellious. I'm always asking what the problem is but she always says there isn't one but I know there has to be something that eating at her because she has changed so much over the last year or so. I miss my sweet lil' girl, I just don’t know what to do anymore.

They are my reason for returning to school and getting a degree in medical assisting. They are my joy!

As I Watch You Grow

© Kay Theese

Do you know how much you mean to me?

As you grow into what you will be.

You came from within, from just beneath my heart

it's there you'll always be though your own life will now start.

You're growing so fast it sends me awhirl,

With misty eyes I ask, Where's my little girl?

I know sometimes to you I seem harsh and so unfair,

But one day you will see, I taught you well because I care.

The next few years will so quickly fly,

With laughter and joy, mixed with a few tears to cry.

As you begin your growth to womanhood, this fact you must know,

You'll always be my source of pride, no matter where you go.

You must stand up tall and proud, within you feel no fear,

For all you dreams and goals, sit before you very near.

With god's love in your heart and the world by its tail,

You'll always be my winner, and victory will prevail.

For you this poem was written, with help from above,

To tell you in a rhythm of your Mother's heartfelt Love!

~HAPPY BELATED EASTER~

Yeah, Yeah, I know I am little late with the wishes, better late than never. No, I did not make it to sun rise service, the family and I were completely wiped out from the events of the day before and none of us got off to bed until 1 or 2 in the morning. After rising late my girls and I went to my parents’ house up in the country and enjoyed the day with them. My fiancé` cooked a fabulous meal, oh heck any meal he cooks is fabulous all because I did not have to cook it. LOL! No, I do not like to cook, he spoiled me when we first got together and told me that he loved to cook and that has been his job since. Don't get it twisted I do cook from time to time, but when I have too! Anywho, I hope everyone had blessed day yesterday!
