Moments

I haven't written in awhile because things are hectic...nothing bad, just busy. Beautiful summer days and nights = not enough time for fun. Lexi and I are really enjoying Jason home this summer. I treasure and I know Jason does too, the moments he and Lexi share together. Often times I think about what a wonderful dad he is and how lucky Alexi is to have him as her protector. Jason is a solid rock...Lexi's and mine.

Almost every night after Alexi goes to bed Jason and I sit on the couch and share how much we love her. We repeat it over and over again like we are telling someone for the first time. We also share stories about what she did that was new or cute. Speaking of new and cute, tonight at dinner Lexi started playing, "Drop the sippy cup and watch mommy pick it up" game. At one point Lexi started laughing and if you know me, I laugh when other people laugh (even if I don't know what they are laughing about). So, since I heard the sweetest laugh on this planet I began laughing too. Lexi continued laughing because I was laughing and it went on and on. I guess the apple really doesn't fall far from the tree.

Another sweet moment happened tonight after I fed Lexi her bedtime bottle. I was holding Lexi cheek to cheek with me and she kissed me. She planted one on my cheek and stayed there for a few minutes looking into my eyes. I didn't move a muscle. I treasured that moment and I always will.

Day 8

Sometimes when life seems hard, sad, or stressful, I like to just stop for a moment and find something happy or peaceful. This evening, Lexi and I were driving home and we noticed the beautiful sunset. I stopped so we could take a picture on my phone. When I look at the sky and it looks like this, it makes me think of the loved ones we have lost and are now in Heaven. Instead of feeling sadness, I feel comfort they are in their forever home in the arms of Jesus. I'm thankful to have to ability to remember and the faith to feel comfort. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

Day 12

Today I am thankful for Apple.  Apple makes great technology.  Jason has been in Canada for almost a week and because of our iPads we were able to facetime with him!  Lexi gets a little shy when the conversation begins, but she quickly warms up and loves to talk and kiss him.  We love and miss him so much when he is traveling.  We are looking forward to the summer when he is home with us for a couple of months straight!!

kindergarten boxcar parade

Well, everyone was healthy until Lexi got the flu and I got pneumonia.  Needless to say, it's been a rough week...BUT, we are better again and for the most part back to normal.  Jason, Lexi and I all worked together on this and we think it turned out great!  All the boxcars were unique and wonderful!  The parade was wonderful...it should have been televised!!
