~~@@Baby Stellan@@~~

Prayers, Prayers, Prayers....... He's very weak, his SVT is taking a toll..he's clammy, pb is low, extremities are cold...


Oh God, Take care of this precious child..His parents need your love, strength, support..you are a mighty god and you know the plan for Stellan..

Please take time and pray for them right now..

Hugs,

Stephanie

~~And Then Their Were Two~~

So......

I made the note in my last post I was going to make this next post better......

In the last 24 hours, I have had 2 women come to me for listening ears.. I am by no means a therapist, a genius, a know-it-all..but there is a few things I have come to realize..

For different reasons they came to me..and I believe without a doubt it was God's work. Back at the beginning when I first started this crazy blog thought..I thought who really is going to read my nonsense, crazy life anyhow..

BUT..


12 people later.. a few that stop by also.. I must say something to brighten their day..

Tonight, something spoke to me as I was looking at my bible sitting here on my desk..and I heard this thought (and no I've not lost my ooples) start another blog..

DO WHAT..

Another one..

I'm doing well honestly to keep on top of one let alone TWO..

Eventually this post will get underneath the others BUT.. over on the right side is a block....

It reads Prayer Requests and a link .. www.lordisourstrength.blogspot.com to my othe blog.. titled

..Matters to you matters to him..

So please if you would like to leave a request for whatever it might be..please do so..

No request is minimal..No request is silly..Each and everyone ..that matters to YOU matters to HIM.

Hugs,

Stephanie

Today..........Take 2

I started my title and then I hit a button and Poof. it sent it..so let's try this again.

It's Friday.........

Kat's coming home today...........

It's been a long week................

I'm sorry I haven't posted the last two days..............

Wednesday.. I was quite the hormonal mother..and ran through every emotion in a 12 hour period I do believe...Ending the day the best ever........In church and Praying..What a blessing ..as I sat at the alter and just let it out..And felt a huge relief..

So.........remember the last I spoke about paying in forward.. just doing one thing for someone..and what the blessing would be and in return you will recieve a blessing by God..

I did just what I said because really that would be crazy if I said it but didn't do it...

So I went and rounded up the clothes my kids have outgrown and posted them to freecycle.. They been picked up throughout the week and still going for tomorrow..
Also went poking in our storage....Giving it away..Anything that we DON'T use it's going on down..

Let me say it feels so good to bless others..No matter what the circumstance is..just a random act of kindness is soo beautiful..

..............................................................................
This week overall went really well...

I'm excited to see my girl tonight...I so hope she returned with all her stuff!!

That's it ..nothing to loud and crazy here......Just a few days recap in My Crazy Life!!

Have a beautiful weekend

Hugs,
Stephanie

Hmm..This & That...

Honestly ....

I think today has dragged on forever enough~~

Let's roll backwards.............

K..my babygirl..yes who will be 11 soon ..HA..woke me up and let me say..her voice can carry~~~... At 7 a.m. wheew ..She's all HI MOM!! What a HELLO!! BUT I was soo glad to hear her voice so all was well.. She was off to a day of breakfast..swimming..paddle boating...awww..How cute..that would've been to see..more eating..(and she is EATING..awesome ..one worry down..HA..more swimming..and service which she really enjoys(the best part)I enjoyed listening too..

Oh and back to the swimming and water....
Okay so this right here....






Honestly has been the talk of the house since we started discussing camp really....

Seeing pictures of children ~~FLYING~~through the air..Oh makes my stomach raise into my throat..

All I can picture is someone jumping on the blob and K going so high..

Well..

This morning when she shouted HELLO...lol..She said Mom, We're off to play in the river and go check out the BLOB..oh talk about praying..praying..

As I drilled and drilled..DO NOT ENTER THAT WATER UNLESS YOU HAVE A VEST STRAPPED TO YOUR BODY!!...

So..this is how our conversation went this afternoon:

K~ Hi Mom, How are you? What are you doing? I hear Ky aka lil k screaming..

Mom~ Hi Honey, I'm fine ,How are you ..good ..fantastic..me too .. yea ky is mad..Her and lil J are not getting along the least bit. today..

Mom again~ You eat today?

K~ Yea for breakfast I had Eggs, Sausage, Toast, ..Sheew she ate like a queen..HA.. and for lunch Corndogs..

And Mom the best part..I went on the BLOB..oh jesus I thought..lord do I want to hear what's coming out of her mouth next?

K~ The first time she said..I just popped of a little ..didn't get very high.....

AND THEN..

Someone bounced onto it ..and mom no kidding I flew like 7 feet in the air....

HA>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.

Now tell me I was so hoping her 7 ft. and my exact 7 ft. were so unaccurate..

I'm like you so better be careful..and Kat..really you might want to keep the 7ft. distance on the down low from your father..He will prob. have a anxiety attack..

K~~Oh and I road the paddleboat today..It was so fun..We went out and out..oh heavens to betsy ..I kept thinking..

I kept praying lord keep my baby safe..let her have a best time but keep her safe~~

So loved my call from my girl..

Not loving how lil k & lil j woke up with the intent this morning to drive their mother bonkers....

Let's see ..I finished paperwork for fall semester..just awaiting date for pickin my good ole books!!

I do want to say that I am so thankful, blessed to be the recipient of a blessing I recieved last week!!

Let's see here....As long as I've been in college ..which honestly is not as long as it feels its been.. I have broke my classes in between on campus and online..well..of course since I have a hubby, and two children who love the computer and tinker on it..finding time to do my own school work without loosing a substantial amount of sleep is far and few between..

So..mom has NEEDED/wanted a laptop..Would make life a bit easier..

and...some have heard of Freecycle..some say it can be awesome at times..

I thought well all else fails I can get one in Oct. when my student loans come in but in the mean time..let's just really pray for this ..and put a note out their looking for one.. I did post and ta da..response the next day!!

This person said he had one ready, just sitting here..and his words were it can be yours!! Say What..Do What..? Yes, yours .. I fix these and give away!!

I know.. some are thinking.. if it sounds to good to be true..probably is..NOT IN THIS CASE..

After running a few errands..I sped home in my soccer mom van..steamed full ahead to my desk here.. and plugged her in(my pc)and oh she is B-e-a-t-i-f-u-l!! I was dancing with the laptop..really I was hugging it and crying because I was so thankful, I mean so grateful for ones kindness to do something for others that they by no means had to do..

So...now i'm waiting to get a router for it**wheew**some are expensive..but I can't wait to use it..No more having to worry about my school stuff dissapearing with a poke of ones finger!!

So in that thought.. With all the odds and ends items around here that are getting dusty I'm posting them on freecycle for others to use..

And so I'm thinking...I encourage each and everyone to do a random act of kindness..no you don't have to go way above and beyond..a little goes a LONG ways!!

Last thought..my last post..had something to do with reading...and I was told ..books are on the way!! So shopaholic reading here I go!! In some ways not a shopaholic..others yes..I guess for corny things like fabric and yarn..eventhough I have yet to sew a stitch or continue ones blanket I started..it is like it calls you near..HA.. So..Mrs. Jill ..I'll be watching out the glass door!! HA..

I need to be shopping for a new purse..that is for sure ..soon real soon!!

So..K called awhile ago to say Goodnight..To hear her excitement and how much fun she's having is all worth the quiet here!! I think she just likes the use of that phone..hopefully she'll remember when she returns mommas taking it back..HA..lol

Hugs & thanks for stickin it out through this long post!!

Stephanie

Missin My Girl..........

I miss my girl.........

I wrote on facebook.....I miss my Girl.....One wrote grab a book(which i'll admit isn't one of my most favorite things to do, it has to be very real and catch me at a HELLO!!)..lol

Next. Sewing..Uh..the thought gives my blood pressure some raising..HA..Sounds like ALOT of fun though..
....................................................

My 10 year that thinks she is tooo BIG for her skirt...

She called this afternoon ..which was about 2 p.m. ..

I heard her voice say Hi Mom..and yea I'll say it ..I teared up..

I was strong this morning..I just teared a minute or two........I was driving her to church and looked in my rear view mirror and she smiled so beautifully...

Time has went slow today..

I need to really find something to keep my brain busy...

Or I'll be wondering if she's:
Minding in Service

Eating

Bathing

Brushing

Sleeping

Consuming Food of any Goodness

Checkin out Boys

Minding her manners..lord knows she tends to slip at home..

Hopes to all goodness she thinks before she speaks..

O well..Nothing I can do about any of this but pray, pray and more prayer that she comes home blessed with a fresh spirit(and not as much attitude).

Love & The evening is Drawing Near..

Hugs,

Stephanie

Blessed Be Your Name

Yes it's Sunday morning........the wee itty bitty hours..and I really have nothing to say..that is exciting anyhow..

I took a few pics of our 4th..so yea take a peek if you wish..and I'm off to get some little zzz's..cause today's is SUNDAY..and in a few hours i'm going to PRAISE THE LORD..in his house!! The lord is soo refreshing to me and I truely can't thank him for everything he's done..

Love & Yea today is it ...last day until my girl is off to camp!! Tonight, she says "Mom, I am gonna miss you this week".. Aww..whether or not she can test my sanity and patience like she did just this morning, it still makes you jello inside to hear those few words!!

Next time I'll be posting with off to camp pics!! Cmon Kleenex's.HA

Hugs,

Stephanie

Happy 4th!!

I am sending Wishes for a Beautiful Happy 4th Independence Day!!

I hope everyone is having a Blessed Day and a Relaxing Weekend!!

K is packed & ready for Camp!! Everything is ready including a phone for her to take for need be..

She's off to a week of refreshing,praying,worshipping,activities,meeting new friends swimming, and everything else she'll be doing for 5 days!! I think the thing that gets me is she has for the most part been at home. So for 5 whole days I won't know what she is doing at what times. I just leave in Gods hands that she will have a great time and get out of camp whatever it might be she is searching for(excluding boy looking)!!

So.....Wishing you happiness on this Holiday....

Hugs,

Stephanie

Plans...for ...4th of July .........Independence Day!!

And you all thought I up and poofed..gone again........

HA not so fast..

So..everyone knows..the 4th is right around the corner...(Saturday to be exacto)

I was leaving a comment for McLinky...www.mycharmingkids.net..and on there I found a comment by a women and her post caught my eye. She said she would do a link up from her blog..http://www.justafatgirlsblog.blogspot.com back to MckMama...

Now that I've totally confused you...www.justafatgirlsblog.blogspot.com is having a Giveaway..

Her idea...

Post your plans on blog, fb, or somewhere she indicates ..what your plans are for the 4th.. of July.. I am prob. one of the least busy mommas this weekend so here it goes...

My hubby works from Tues-Sat.. and he offered to work on the 4th..Holiday Pay is always a treat..right?

We live in the city and really I'm not excited about spending $$ for fireworks... a few things.. I imagine we'll do but if I get my hubby in that white tent ..I will have to pull him out before they offer him anything extravigant..cause he won't say NO..well just to ME!!

This holiday is also bittersweet as the 3rd of July will mark 10 years since my father in law..has passed away. This also marks 10 years that I miscarried twins ..very early in pregnancy) so having said that..we just make the most of this beautiful holiday and be thankful for all the service men and women that have risked their lives for us!!

**ALSO** If you have seen my Ticker...This momma has just a few days until K is leaving for camp..Honestly I am VERY excited for her.. and let me say in the last day she has repacked and refolded the few items in her suitcase. HA.. Just sitting at the dining room table yesterday and watching her sit on the couch I started to tear up..I can't believe she is almost 11, going to church camp, entering the 5th grade..See my eyes tear up just thinking about it..

Sunday we'll have a after service get together with some yummo to celebrate the fourth..and we'll be praying for beautiful blessings for all those leaving the next morning...TO CAMP!!

Well this is it..Nothing exciting really..

Just another day in MY CRAZY LIFE!!

Tell me what are YOUR 4th of July Plans?

Hugs & Tissues,

Stephanie

EVERYTHING to ME!!

I ask that because you took the time to come visit my blog that you would ease your mind, rest your heart and read the words to this beautiful song. This song is another one of my favorites. If you really hear the words..absorb them into your soul you will feel so blessed.....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFOQHT3mn5Q

I grew up in sunday school
I memorized the Golden rule
And how Jesus came to set the sinner free
I know the story inside out
I can tell you all about
The path that led Him up to Calvary
But ask me why He loves me
And I don't know what to say
But i'll never be the same
Because he changed my life when He became...

Everything to me
He's more than a story
more than words on a page of history
He's the air that I breath
The water I thirst for
And the ground beneath my feet
He's everything, everything to me

We're living in uncertain times
And more and more I find that i'm aware
Of just how fragile life can be
I want to tell the world I found
A love that turned my life around
They need to know that they can taste and see
Now everyday I'm praying
Just to give my heart away
I want live for Jesus
So that someone else might see that he is...
You're everything to me
You're more than a story
More than words on a page of history
You're everything to me
You're more than a story
More than words on a page of history
You're the air that I breath
The water I thirst for
And the ground beneath my feet
You're everything to me
Lord, you're everything to me

Today as I was rushing around to do a few daily duties as the lady of the house..I was standing at the kitchen doing some dishes..This very song came to my mind and I began to sing it in my mind. As I went on I had to stop but I just felt the Lords presence over me and I began to cry tears as I mouthed these very words...

He's everything to me...

The AIR I breathe...

The water I thirst for...

I want to do whatever it takes to be a witness and open other people up to how wonderful our god is!! I encourage others to let HIM be not just a part of your life but a huge being of yourself.

Our God is ....

Our Rock

Our Strength

Our Counselor

Our Father

Our Best Friend

Anything that YOU need ...

Physical, Spiritual, Emotional healing...

He is Right there...Reach out and touch HIM!!

So.. What is HE to YOU?

.........................................................................
Hugs,

Stephanie

P words (I for warn you now..this is one of my CRAZY moments)

I first want to say that my ULTIMATE favorite P word is PRAYER...

Prayer- is the act of attempting to communicate with a deity or spirit. Purposes for this may include worshipping, requesting guidance, requesting assistance, confessing sins, as an act of reparation or to express one's thoughts and emotions.

I believe in Prayer whole heartedly..I love to pray..When I was younger I attended church a few times BUT when I was 29 last Father's Day did I give myself to the Lord. I have had some battles this last year..BUT I do know that our God is our Strength, our Rock, our Provider, our best Friend. When you feel ALL alone he is right there..just reach out and touch him.

Prayer gives us comfort and peace and our God hears our prayers. We even myself have to remember that it is God's timing not my timing.

When a person being through a blog or someone in my church ask for prayer. I take that and do just that..

God hears our Prayers so please know that no matter what when you are praying, calling out to God..he takes his arms and wraps them around you.

Having said all of this to say........If anyone has a prayer request, please let me know. You can contact me through here or on the right is my email address...

.................okay switching gears here....................................


If you were to grab a dictionary you could open it and find many ...interesting words..some more intriguing to read than others.......

However,

My post today is brought by the letter P..................HA

So...

I have some P words that I enjoy ........

One that I LOVE

and some..........

NOT SO MUCH....

My lil K & our P words.....

Please...

Pizza.......

Pop..

Potty & yea P..P

This child.. my daughter isn't 2 yet but she really is pushing my WHITE not grey hairs literally out. She thinks because brother lil J can do his business in the B room than well why can't she... UH HELLO..Trying to explain why her being a girl aren't able to do things like her brother.. AHEM.. isn't working so well...

Everyone knows ..hopefully..a favorite song of mine is 'I am Free'.. I love it .. when it hits the radio in the car.. I turn it up and yes I am a car singer and LOVE IT.. lil K takes it really to heart and shreds all articles and so...............

I went in this morning to get her up and YEA......she was FREE..

Oh Jesus Help Me!! I ask her where are your clothes and diaper?

Uh ...I dunno know.....and I found them on the floor..I said k madison did you take your diaper off..

And she is knows when she is in trouble she takes her arm and covers her face..she says YES.. I go Potty!!

I know their are parents who potty train at her age..But I just don't know what to do with this. I can take her to do her business in the B room but again she thinks she can STAND......AHHHHH...
........................................................................

So this is my CRAZY moment.........and it's not 10 a.m. yet.

....................................................................

Hugs & lots of water because it is SCORTCHING HOT today......

......Hmmmmm...........................

I stopped to ponder my title for this post and AHEM.......nothing..

Not really sure what that is all about as all of a sudden I can't spit out a delicate title.. This women of many thoughts and yet no post title ..Odd I know..

If you wondering....No I haven't had anymore episodes of forgeting my children at school..LOL.. Miss K made sure on Monday that I knew school let out and 2 ..Gee ..they really think mom would forget twice..Not gonna say it won't happen again someday but let's hope not for a LONG while!!

Well we've hit WEDNESAY..and PRAISE GOD..we have service tonight because I am patiently waiting until we go.. The clock says 4:24 a.m. Oh goodness I still have 14 hours to go..HA..

Nothing compares to the breath of air you feel when you open the church doors and walk in. A person can be weighed down with many burdens and yet when you turn the door knob and enter ... oh it's breathless... I have felt it..I have encountered periods of time in my life where emotionally and spirtually all I could do was gather myself together and I felt so broken that I have literally hung over the alter pew. To let out all my tears, all my fears, all my burdens, ask for forgiveness for my short falls and NOTHING..NOTHING compares to the unconditional love our god gives us. To feel the Lords presence in your life..is PRICELESS..

I'd have to say a new favorite song of mine is 'Savior Please'..Oh it really can touch your heart and I recommend anyone to pull it up ...Love It..
.......................................................................

As one can see I have yet to finish my Anniversary Post.. AHEM..
My mind has been filled with lots of stuff..so yea...still working on it..

Then I just realized uh....Father's Day is on SUNDAY... oh Jesus help me!!

I won a scrapbook through Polly's Path blog..(Love her blog..You can find her blog below on the right.. I could insert it here and make it look cute but I have no clue so there is my shout out)..

Yea back to that book..uh .. days are ticking down and oh help me I HAVEN'T started yet.. and I also thought well that blanket I was making for my husband I could give that to him for Father's Day..HA HA .. Until I realized that it's just around the corner..No matter how fast I crochet .. that would be considered magic to have it done ...

That blanket..I have got to get with it..I took a few days off but having been making progress and I so need to get it done before semester starts again..FYI that is in AUGUST..oh Jesus Help Me!!

It seems to be the older I get.. not that i'm again rapidly.. do I lose a handle of time..and some days I am on to getting things accomplished and others not so much..maybe I need time management skill help..HA>.. OR maybe it is the fact that my YOUNGER two are about to take my patience to a WHOLE other level...

Oh and I am NOT kidding when I say another level..because them two together are like peas & carrots of naughtyville.. They mize well be twins eventhough they are a year apart..It's like they have a secret language and they are in cahoots to drive this momma batty..

For instance I didn't think yesterday was EVER going to end..

Two monkeys jumpin on the couch..

Using toys to manuver flippin over the back of the couch..

Sneakin upstairs and climbing on the bunk beds...HELLO.. can I say broken arm.. or LEG..and these kids are NOT very old almost 2 & 3..

OH miss lil K deciding to AHEM..be free of all clothing and under accessories..yea at first I chuckled but NO MORE!!

She thinks because her bubba can do things standing.....AHEM.. so can SHE..not gonna happen..

OH the potty training.. let me have my moment here..my lil J will be 3 in August..and the other two had NO problems transitioning over at 2 weeks before turning 3 but this one..OH BOY.. I am beginning to wonder ..He can do either business not a problem and he'll even go when needed BUT if he is in big boy pants...AHEM..doesn't or won't go when needed.. WHAT IS THAT ALL ABOUT..

I know something is gonna have to give..before my sanity does..It is for sure no two kids are alike.. all my children are beautiful blessings and don't get me wrong because I do cherish my kids..but wheew..it is never a dull day..lil K is getting so big..she isn't 2 yet but it seems she is getting so big, advancing faster than the others..oh time stand still..let her be 2 and not jump to 12 so fast I lose sight of her milestones.

It is amazing when I turn on music that I start chattering.. and chattering.. boy this post is gonna be long winded.. I do apologize..oh goodness it's 5 am.. I like the quiet at this time.. I won't like the tired part later but as long as I don't fall asleep in church..AHEM..then I'll be good..:)

Well K participated in a walk a thon for church last saturday in efforts of raising money for camp..

CAMP..

NOT WITH HER FATHER & I...

AWAY FOR A WHOLE WEEK.....

FIRST TIME EVER...

GOODNESS GRACIOUS...

Just a couple weeks and she'll be off to camp for a whole week..where she'll be out..doing things..

Having a sleepover with a friend is one thing but actually gone for a WEEK..where I won't have a play by play of what's going on...Their will be alot of deep cleaning that week..

If I cry when my kids sing in the choir at church(everytime because they melt my heart) then I will be a bumbling mess on July 6th..I guess I could get a ticker countdown..lol..to help me ..oh goodness..

Well enough rambling..

We had baseball last night.. again on this friday..Next week we have 4 count them FOUR games.. I see alot of grey hair sprouting then..and yea I have some now..lol..they seem to sprout at the front.. WHAT IS THAT ABOUT anyway?

Hugs & Love on This Wednesday!!

Stephanie

Wheeww..So it's been what like FOREVER since I last posted...

Reading back..I have really notta clue where I left off so... Mrs. Stephanie is gonna wing this ..feel free to climb into my plane and join me on this ride..

So.........

1. Semester of college ended...PRAISE GOD...because honestly I thought at one point I was entering a state of breakdown... Overall did fairly well..Well honestly I tanked Math..LOL...Math has never been a subject of mine. I initially when looking into college wanted to be a Surgical Tech..and then when I seen the math credentials..OH NO >> not going there.. So next thing in line NURSE>.....I know I'm really gonna have to book it this next semester..***Note to self(No late nights tending to my farm on fb**)

2. Mrs. Stephanie has also been contemplating working next fall ..when the kids go back into school.. If I thought this last semester was crazy....I better hold onto my skirt because this one could be quite challenging...

But ......really what do I do my husband does work a job..but with 4 kids....hello.. it is still tight.. but realistically...uh I'm only one person here ..... Women as we know are spread thin enough so for me to work too.. I'm honestly scared...So..moving on..

3. We finished soccer last saturday..J really pulled out all the stops the last 2 games..usually he gets tired out by the end of the season BUT.....one game 5 GOALS>.... Ladies..I about shouted.. and did kart wheels..Okay..not the kart wheel part but yes .. I was one screamin lady out there..cuz everyone knows generally i'm not the quiet one.......HAHAHA

4. Miss K arm all good and done... Lookin forward for her to blossom in the fall with soccer..Help expend that sassy mouth.Lord help her..Maybe it's her hitting that stage or age.. who knows.. but I do alot of counting and praying on her behalf..

5. Baseball is going on still...J is pickin up speed on hitting.. at the beginning you would prob. here my mouth expend...arm ....raise it up and out but now... ZIPPIDY ZIP.. and man he hits it out..

6. The school year ended..they had a 2 week break and.........yes i'm the mean momma ..they have entered the dreaded Summer School...Now there are pros and cons to this.. Pros...they get ready for the next year and don't lose so much learning that they have memory banked in....Cons would be the outrageous traffic congestion I encountered to pick them up...oh .. I finally after almost 10 sitting in the turning lane knew I wasn't moving anytime soon so I parked it and walked across the street...WELL...more like power walked..and I was tired out...ya I don't get much exercise.. Pros.. a few hours without hearing I'm bored...I'm hungry..What happened to the imagination and playing outside......HMMMM

7. My most exciting news..

Our church last sunday held a Friends Day Service.. We had almost 130 visitors...WOO HOO>. I was astounded..at the amount of people walking in ..I felt so blessed and honored to be a part of this celebration.. There were a group of us that handed out 3000 flyers to homes and even were intitled to bless people at our walmart stores.. It was incredible that is one word..To know that they felt compelled to come for whatever reason..The seed has been planted and I know God is so Awesome and our pews will continue to fill up..

Being a part of this Outreach Team and walking and meeting people was and still is a beautiful thing.. Oh absolutely was I tired.. oh I could've crawled the next morning but I know it's all worth it..

Really not much new going on..

Let's see...Bits & Bites.

House is still crazy looking....Don't have no idea how it ends in a matter of destruction after it was clean just last night...

Ball got rained out last night in the 3rd inning.. drop..drop..sprinkle..sprinkle..down pour..and POURING..it was cooled off from the upper 80 temps we'd had.. so yea my smaller two were getting panicky.

Picked up crocheting again....Boy how I wish I will speed through it quicker.. I'll have to post a pick of progress.. Maybe like a weekly one.. that'll motivate me to really move on it .. I wouldn't hear my husband repeatedly ask how is it going..Every other day...

Okay..It's time to put on your jump packs...I have babies fussing and making more messes..

Ready......................1..................2...........3...


JUMP...........
