Tribute to the most influential women in my life...

As I look at my little bulge and watch the scale go up, I get excited yet nervous about the life changing event that is going to happen. I think about all the possible situations that will occur: What bottles to use? Am I going to get enough sleep or be a grizzly bear? What do I do if my precious angel cries and cries? How will I deal with the first time my baby talks back and I cannot believe the tone that came out of his/her mouth? I stopped and thought about the women I can turn to in time of need, prayer, and a good ole fashion cry session. Here's to you ladies...

Mama - She must have done something right because Mae and I are not in jail or committed a felony (I have been close with Michael snoring...LOL). We both still attend church and keep the phone lines burning between the 3 of us. You are an INCREDIBLE mother and I will try to learn your gifts of patience and Christian love and apply them with my own family. I love you mama!

Magen - I wonder daily how you keep your sanity when everywhere you look there is a child getting into something or demanding your attention. Lord only knows how you keep it semi together. You are an AWESOME mother to your babies. Anyone can tell that those 3 kids are your world. I will try to learn your gifts of sanity/love through daily chaos and organization down to the tee. I love you Mae!

To all the other women who demonstrate what a Christian mother should be, Granny, Jennifer, Ashley, and Judy, I want to say thank you for being such a great example.

This explains where my pizza went.......

Baby Update

I went to the doctor this afternoon and everything checked out good. I have gained some weight...LOL. The baby's heartbeat was 151 bpm. Next month I will find out if we are having a boy or girl. I cannot wait to start shopping!!!!

Test in Nacogdoches

Well, I got through this test and have just 1 more left. I don't know if I passed or not until another 2 weeks. Oh man, I hope I did good enough. Thank you for the prayers. I will let everyone know results when I get it. If you don't hear about results then that means they weren't good...LOL.

Prayer Request

I am completing my Master's Degree in Reading and have 2 tests left to complete. One test is tomorrow and the other test is May 1st. I just really need a special prayer that I will be calm, confident, and remember everything I learned and studied.
I cannot wait to get this behind me once and for all.

Thanks everyone!
