Amazingly Inspirational
I was going through some of my old emails that I hadn't had a chance to read and I came across one from my friend Karie. After I read her words concerning the video clip that she wanted me to view, I knew it would be worth the 13 minutes it would take to see it. I am so grateful I did because it has helped me see that the Lord's love is amazing and that we, as his children, need to be grateful for whatever circumstances we are currently in. Because if we use our difficult times to make us stronger, we can become amazing followers of Christ.
The man in this video is not of my faith but I know that his testimony of Christ is solid. He loves his Savior and had dedicated his life to sharing the love of Christ. Some terms used may not be the same terms that someone of my faith may use but believe me, this man is bareing his testimony of his loving Savior and it touched every ounce of my soul.
I can only hope that the Lord can use me in the way He is using this man.
Please take the time to watch the whole clip. You will not be sorry that you did. And I believe you will be a better person afterwards. :)
Enjoy!

Buddy's 2yr old Photos
Well, Gabe's 2nd birthday was on Mother's Day (May 11th) so I am a bit late getting his 2yr old photos done but better late than never, right?
I really felt bad for Carma because Gabe was in his usual "out-of-hand" mood. She pulled out every trick in the book but still only got a few photos where he's smiling. And then poor Hannah had to sit there with a perma-grin on just incase Gabe actually did look at the camera and smiled. So the photos with them together are a little rough around the edges but still adorable. Hannah insisted that her teddybear pumpkin be in a few shots and actually, there was suppose to be photos of Gabe with his "softies" (his soft blue blanket) but I don't remember seeing them in there. I'll have to look at them again to make sure and if they're not there, then I'll give Carma a call. I know they probably didn't turn out the best (the one's with Gabe & softies) so I hope she didn't delete them. I want one anyway! (Ok, I made a mistake. They're there! Yippee! I was worried that I wouldn't be able to get one of him and softies :)

Our Drawn-out Easter
Yes, I'm still trying to catch up on my posts, sorry! Please bare with me...
This year our Easter was a bit long. We started out a bit early having an Easter egg hunt at my cousins house. Hannah and Gabe had a wonderful time. Gabe became more interested in a little scooter than hunting for eggs but hey, whatever floats his boat, right?
As for Hannah, she had a wonderful time hunting for eggs and hanging out with her cousins. In the past, Hannah has been the more timid-type of egg hunter. We can't even take her to the city hunt or she freaks out because of all the kids just start diving for eggs and climbing over each other and stuff. It's just not her scene. But here with her 10 cousins (not 100, like the city hunts), who weren't confined to a 10x10 area to hunt for eggs, she seemed to do really well and came home with quite a few eggs!
Here are some photos of me and the girls & Greg and the boys! It was fun hanging out with the family!
We decided to leave a little early because Hannah and I began not feeling well. By the next morning, we were sick. Come Easter Sunday, we as a family, had to stay home from church because we were all under the weather. And there's nothing worse than being sick on a holiday because the Easter Bunny and Santa still seem to show up even if we're not wanting them to come. We decided to wait until the next sunday to wear Easter clothing, dye eggs, and eat Easter dinner, which meant we were still celebrating Easter a week after it was over. Next year I think we'll stick to celebrating on the Saturday & Sunday only! What a concept :)

Hannah's Leprechaun Trap
For school, Hannah made a leprechaun trap so that on St. Patrick's Day she could catch a leprechaun. She worked really hard designing this awesome trap. She decided that tricking the leprechaun into the trap was the best option. So she made a "pretend" birthday party for the little guy. She just knew that leprechauns love parties!! I think she did a wonderful job especially when she decided to add the rainbow with the pot of gold on top of the roof. Very clever!!
So, St Patrick's day arrived and it just so happened that I had my brother and his family in town visiting me. Hannah made a very difficult choice to come spend time with them instead of going to school. I could see the sacrifice in her eyes BUT I also could see the love she had for her little cousin Tsamanda and that love overpowered the other desire. She made the choice to spend a final day with her cousin that she rarely sees, which I thought was a brave choice for a 7 year old who REALLY wanted to catch a tricky leprechaun!!

Valentine's Day!
Yes, I know this is a VERY LATE entry but I am still trying to catch up! It seems like as I start getting closer to being "caught up", more things just keep happening and I just get farther behind.
Here is Hannah on Valentine's Day 2008. She really loves this day because her daddy treats her like a princess. She loves the thought of "being in love" and "getting married" so this is definitely a day she enjoys. I hope for many, many more Valentine's Days before she actually accomplishes those thoughts she loves so much. :)
