I am continually amazed at our nation and its completely ignorant and self-absorbed view on abortion. I shouldn’t be surprised that, those who don’t believe there is a loving and just God, can’t get a clue. But sometimes I still am. I get the disagreement on healthcare and poverty and war and big/little government, etc., [...]

A Year
Posted in Uncategorized on November 25, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Yesterday, November 24th, was the year anniversary of Noah’s original due date. I can’t believe it’s been a year. I remember looking at my calendar over and over throughout my pregnancy, unable to imagine that day would ever come. And I remember trying really hard to imagine what he might look like (to no avail). [...]
Noah & Stone

I have known Constance (Goram) Stanton since we were in 6th grade. That was 1990, so next year we will have known each other for 20 years. Though we haven’t kept in touch during every stage, we recently had baby boys only 5 days apart. Stone Cash Stanton was born on November 26, 2008 and [...]
One (of many) reasons I love Whole Foods Market
Posted in Uncategorized on August 2, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Jason & I got to shop at Whole Foods Market last week. I am like a little kid in a candy store when I go there. I could probably blow our savings in one visit. The produce and meat, in particular, are outstanding. I get even more satisfaction shopping there now, knowing I’m feeding this [...]
A big boy

Just a little while ago I nursed Noah and put him to bed. I actually nursed him for the last time. I’ve seen this moment coming for a while now, but I’ve been putting it off. I can’t explain why it’s time to stop; it just is. And I am heartbroken. I sobbed while my [...]
Pressure. Patience. Sacrifice.

We traveled to Norman, Oklahoma this past weekend for a family reunion on Jason’s side. As Jason was packing up the car to go home, I sat in the hotel room half-way watching Noah play and the other half watching one of those TLC home-makeover shows. The show was about two different couples who were [...]
Dedication

Noah was dedicated to God at our church, Sherman Bible, on June 28th. I would love to write about the Biblical background of dedication, but I’m too tired. Can I get some love for the honesty, please? I just wanted to post some photos that were taken for a video that was shown [...]
This Face

My heart breaks with utter joy and almost unbearable love every time I see this face… which is A LOT! What an incomparable and overwhelming blessing.
The Noah Tree

My friends in Sherman threw me a wonderful baby shower last year and one of their gifts to me was a tree to plant when Noah was born. Yes, I cried. My grandparents planted a maple tree when I was born, so I was so excited to plant this tree in honor of [...]
Hide & Seek

There have been a couple of times Noah has been in funny positions when I go to his room to get him up from a nap… but today topped them all!! I went in his room, saw him, and darted out to the living room to get my camera. Thankfully I caught this one on [...]
