Well, it just occurred to me, due to my friend, Julie MacManus, that I never posted what we’re having… IT’S A GIRL!! My favorite color is pink, so I’m excited. It seems really weird that we’ll have pink around here after having all boy stuff, but it will be so much fun to have one [...]

Long Overdue
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged baby, Noah on July 3, 2010 | 4 Comments »
Why did I ever start a blog? I get so much grief from friends for not keeping up with it! As if I don’t have anything else to do. I’m spending 20 hours a day trying to chase a 19-mth-old, and you’d better believe I’m sleeping those last 4! When do I clean the house, [...]
Just a quick soapbox on abortion
Posted in Uncategorized on December 8, 2009 | 2 Comments »
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
Posted in Uncategorized on July 16, 2009 | 2 Comments »
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 the morning [...]
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.
