February 2012

I can't believe today is March 1st. I totally thought life would slow down a little bit after the holidays, but it didn't. I feel like I am always busy, and I honestly can't tell you what I am busy doing. I know, it is quite sad.

Well, the kids had fun last month. They were really excited about Valentine's Day, so I decided to give them their own little party. They invited their cousins and Jonathan & Nia. I spent the entire day in the kitchen making sweet treats for them. They LOVED eveything!!! They told me I was the BEST MOM EVER. That made my heart smile :-).

As for as AWANA news, Alyssa FINALLY received her wings and red & green jewels. She was soo happy about this. Evidently memorizing bible verses is not her specialty. On the other hand, Daniel received the book review award for his class. He recited the most bible verses, he said the Lord's prayer and the pledge to the bible. I was really impressed. I didn't know he had all this bible knowledge inside of him.

Well, I must confess that I have a new obsession and it is called pinterest. The pink and brown sign, the red velvet heart and most of my Valentine's day treats came from this website. I do spend a lot of time working on craft projects and recipes that I have found on this site. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE pinterest :-)

Alyssa lost her front tooth and she didn't take it very well initially. She cried and said that she was ugly. She is so DRAMATIC. I really don't know what I am going to do with her.

Thanks for the continued prayers for my grandmother. We recently took a trip down to Houston to see her. I am very grateful that God placed such an AMAZING woman in my life.

Agian, thanks for reading the blog. Keep us in your prayers, and we will definitely continue to pray for you guys. (Trust me, Daniel & Alyssa pray for EVERYBODY. We sometimes have to cut thier prayers short) Love you all :-
