Unforgettable Moments

Unforgettable moments

Our first date-he stuck his head thru my car window and kissed me-that kiss changed me forever.

Getting into the office in the morning to find a voicemail on my work phone from him-perfect day.

Him locking the car doors just so he can come around and open my door for me-perfect gentleman.

Me cooking in the kitchen and he walks up behind and puts his arms around me and whispers “forever” in my ear-breathtaking.

Sitting in a parking lot during a storm, watching the lightening in the sky and listening to a romantic song-perfect moment.

Having a bad day and him bringing home a card that makes me laugh until my stomach hurts-unbelievably unselfish.

Sitting in a restaurant, just staring at each other and knowing each other thoughts-perfect love.

This will last forever.

This is the world that I live in now and I promise you, every single day, I thank God for my blessings. Especially him.

These are the moments I live for and what I cherish most. I never take a single second for granted with him. It’s as though he lives to make me happy. And I feel as though I can never do enough to show him how much I love him. But by the grace of God, I’ll spend my life doing so. He is my very best friend in the world and this next year is going to be hard without him. I know I’ll get through it and keep these moments and memories safe in my heart and have so much more to look forward to when he returns.

Please keep Matt and the rest of the 131 Aviation Reg in your prayers. God bless our troops and bring them all home safe to their families.

changes are coming

Four years ago, Trevor and Savanna came to live with us, to start a new life. One that we’d hoped would be fruitful and blessed. Our lives changed in every aspect over that four year period. We all grew in different ways. Some for the best and some, not so much. But overall, it was for the betterment of both of them and we saw great improvements over those four years. Last year, one simple mistake changed everything. July of last year during summer football camp, Trevor got caught with a pocket knife. He didn’t think anything of it because he always carries it, just like any other young man in Alabama. He didn’t think about it being a school function and honestly, who would? He had no intentions of harming anyone at all. Mind you, Trevor had come so very far in four years. He was making straight A’s, taking Honors classes, playing football and well on his way to making huge changes for his future. We could not have been more proud. The Autauga County School Board decided they need

life will go on...eventually

     I genuinely believed after having this major surgery, my quality of life would greatly improve. Don’t get me wrong-the surgery did relieve me of my headaches and for that, I am truly grateful. But it seems to have brought on another set of problems that I wasn’t prepared for. It has been frustrating, discouraging and most of all, very painful. My numerous doctors seem to believe that the surgery exacerbated a problem I began having before the surgery-arthritis in my hands. Now, it’s throughout my entire body and some days, it is hard to get out of bed, much less walk. It takes more strength than I knew I had. Pain meds and arthritis meds don’t seem to help much and some days are far worse than other. But I keep going, regardless because I have to. I pray daily for healing but I find myself asking why…why after going through such a traumatic event in my life, believing I was going to move onto something better, does this have to happen now? What am I supposed to be learning for th

tears

I'm an emotional kinda gal. I wear my heart on my sleeve. As tough as I try to be, I have more compassion than you could possibly imagine. I guess that's one of the many reasons I've wanted to become a nurse. So here it is, not even noon and I've probably cried or teared up at least 3-4 times. Why? I was listening to my iPod on the way home from picking up my kids from camp and a song came on that immediately sent my thoughts to Matt. I thought back to the first night we met and like a cheshire cat, my whole face lit up. My heart swelled until I thought it would burst in my chest, I got the warm fuzzies and then I started to cry. Not just tear up but CRY. Yeah. I'm a cry baby. It's the feeling that moves you to the most beautiful tears. Knowing that someone loves you more than themselves. That's hard to find. He can walk in a room and my whole world will stand still. That look he gives me ...butterflies, have mercy. When he wraps his arms around me, I
