Snow Flurries!

I think I have explained this before but today we had a God wink. Little things that remind you that He is watching and knows your heart and desires or places people in your life for a special reason. Well, Madison has been convinced that once we moved she would see snow.  I thought this was just about the most impossible event to happen ever, let alone in the first week of April. I kept telling her that we probably wouldn't see snow this year.  I was wrong!  

We have had our first snow today.  Just flurries but Madison couldn't be happier. There was literally one little cloud above our house with blue skies all around and Madison in her furry to see flurries said "mommy I think it is snowing."  I was like, "no honey, that is just paint splatter on the deck and then one landed on my shirt and you could see it falling through the air. God wink!  Just a little something for us.  And YES, I do believe that cloud was just for us this morning.  Not enough to even take pictures, but it happened a few times this morning and my girl couldn't be more please with life. Faith like a child gets you snow flurries in April!   

Obviously we are now in Alabama and it is COLD!  Crazy Florida girls dancing on the deck in freezing temperatures, in PJ's for snow flurries.  The neighbors must think we are nuts.  HA!  WE ARE!   It is so different here in a wonderful way.  I have been so busy but had to post about our snow today.  Will get pictures up soon.  We have a beautiful dogwood tree in the backyard that is covered in white flowers.  Funny story about that too. More to come!

Lucky Saint Patrick's Day!

Ada you will love this... Madison loses her tooth yesterday on the way home from school.  I am so excited, I take a picture as soon as she gets out of the van and post it everywhere and email it to family.  I clean it off and put it in a zip lock (easier to find under the pillow, right?) and we tuck it under the pillow and we all, ALL fall asleep.   Madison wakes up at 5:30 AM and says to me, "I can't see if the tooth fairy left me anything". PANIC stricken.  I FORGOT THE TOOTH FAIRY JOB!  Okay this is my only job on earth.  I can't remember to exchange cash for a baby tooth. I send her to the couch and tell her it is too early that she has to try and go back to sleep.   I grab Marks elbow and he says to me, "it is only 5:30".  He was awake and heard her too.  We both lay in silence for 30 minutes hoping she falls asleep.  Funny thing is once we talked to each other thirty minutes later, both of us were in bed formulating a plan.  He wanted to sneak out our

Mohawk!

    Um, where to start?   I went away for the weekend with girlfriends to get some R & R and scrapbook.  Little did I know I was going to come home to a Mohawk.  GO RAYS!  I think Nathan is loving the attention that comes with such a dramatic do.   I really can't believe Mark did such a crazy thing.  I don't think anyone that saw Nathan at church could believe it either. For all you wondering, I love it and I will go away on another girls weekend.  It's not like he gave all the kids a mohawk.  The girls still have their lovely locks.

Time

Yes, my topic again is about time.  This one is not about the waste of time, but the passing of time.  As in how long it has been over a period of many days, years, etc.   Saturday night I went scrapbooking at a friends house.  Something we have done for about two years!  WHAT?  Two years, at least once a month.  Where did that time go?  I feel like it was just yesterday that Meagen and I where going to Anita's.  At the time if you would have told me my scrap buddy was moving in the matter of months to Fuquay-Varina I would have said two things,  "Where in the world it that?" and then I would have said "yeah, right!". She probably would have said the same things at the time.  I now see it all as a God wink.  Most of you have been to a Women of Faith conference and have heard the term God wink.  I appreciate all the God winks in my life.  See, at the time I didn't know Anita except from an occasional candle party or birthday party.  We were aquanitices at the
