Warning: Girly and Mushy Entry

It has happened. It is the 4th week of school now and I finally gave into my real feelings today. I have tried my hardest to always be brave, strong and steadfast in my decision to go back to school. It has taken a lot on my part and I have needed a lot of help from the Lord (as in anything in our lives...but this one seems to need His hand a lot more than other times in my life). This morning as I left the girls at school I started to cry. I was surprised at what a release it was. I have wanted to cry for a while now but I don't let myself do it very often....I am a "get out there and do it" person, therefore I go through the actions without letting myself feel down ever. But I have to say that it felt good to give into my real feelings and be sad that I have to be away from them each day. I have voiced this before but never felt it. This is such a sacrifice, but I know it is the right thing to do. I am grateful to know this through prayer and the Lord's guidance. Also, I am grateful for a supportive husband and that we are on the same page with our preparation for the future. Wow....feels good just to write these thoughts out (which I suspected)....hopefully it helps my family and friends understand me a little better.

Weekend Fun



We have good times during the week but Friday night through Sunday night is the most we see of Daddy and therefore it is the BEST time of the week! This weekend was full of a fun night swimming at the rec. center, college football, cleaning (my favorite thing to do), and friends from out of town. I snapped a few shots of the girls on Charlotte's "made" bed (the "made" part rarely happens). Vanny Fanny's smile just makes me melt. She is a tiny little ball of fun. Char is turning 4 in two weeks and I cannot believe how much she has changed. She is such a good big sister.

Say Cheese!


This is what Charlotte enjoys doing to her sister lately. It makes Savannah smile every time. :)

The other picture posted here is one of my favorites because Sav looks like she is in a workout video from the 80's with that headband on. It makes me hear the song......."You gotta get physical.......physical" And the irony is, she was moving her legs like she was riding a bicycle (my babies LOVE to do this for hours on end).
