Childhood Memories Re-visited!

Why?

So, since about October I feel like I've stepped into an alternate dimension where I'm stuck in a nightmare and I can't get out of it.
People I love dearly are crumbling into pieces and I have no way of helping or making it all better.
It seems like every day something new happens and it all just gets worse.
There are some moments I feel like there is no way my heart can break any more than it already has...and then something else comes ripping through it and I realize there was actually more to break than I thought.

At this point, all I can do is look to my Savior and sob, "why?"
And, in the midst of the ever increasing darkness and in the midst of my heart breaking ever more, I feel His love surround me and comfort me and I know His heart is breaking too.
Because, this isn't what He wanted to have happen either.

A beautiful day at the park

I don't think it gets better than this!

I am so blessed to live in this part of the country. It's so beautiful.

Fun Times

So, last night, our friends Kim and Jake came over and brought us dinner and Kim dyed my hair. I'm liking it alot!
And, we had a nice, quiet St Patricks Day dinner, just Jon, Liam, Aaron M, Jessie, Katrina and myself. The Big Feed was canceled due to Bill and Carol having the flu.

So, that's whats new and fun around here.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day and Good Night to all!

Me and Liam

Newest Liam Pictures

playing with play-dough
He thinks his Potato-Head arms are Lolly-pops!
He wouldn't cooperate! He's positioned right, but no smile!
This one is super cute, but slightly blurry!

HAIRCUT!

Nothing without You

Take these hands and lift them up
For I have not the strength to praise
You near enough
For I have nothing, I have nothing without You

Take my voice and pour it out
Let it sing the songs of mercy I have found
For I have nothing, I have nothing without You

Chorus:
All my soul needs
Is all Your love to cover me
So all the world will see
That I have nothing without You

Take my body and build it up
May it be broken as an offering of love
For I have nothing, I have nothing without You

All my soul needs
Is all Your love to cover me
So all the world will see
That I have nothing

But I love You
With all my heart
With all my soul
With all my mind
With all the strength that I can find

Take my time here on this earth
And let it glorify all that You are worth
For I am nothing,I am nothing without You
