“The heart has reasons that reason does not understand.” Jacques Benigne Bossuel

I wish I had the understanding to see what my future holds. However, God did not grant me that ability, rather he gives me challenges with testing my patience, and relying fully on Him. This is one of those times where I feel I can only rely on Him for the peace, mercy, and guidance that I need.


I have been having some odd symptoms that prompted me to give the doctor a call to check things over. After a few tests, and some x rays it was suggested that I get a few more tests done and consult with a cardiologist. These symptoms, scary as they may be, leave me exhausted. I was advised to rest until I complete the tests and see the specialist. So, until then I will do my best to not worry, and know that what ever the challenge is that is before me, I will not be alone. I have amazing family, friends, and the Grace of God to carry me forward.

Tribute

Summer brings with it lazy days, busy days, and some of the most beautiful sights.
Oh, Summer. Thank you for always being faithful in giving us such wonderful sights to behold!



My mother in law hangs hummingbird feeders. Every year there is a steady stream of 6-10 birds who come and sip the sweetness from the feeder. I loved catching them in action.








The flight and fury of deciding who would eat at which feeder.













This little fellow is so pretty!











This by far is my favorite of the day lilies.



Belated Father's Day....

We celebrated Father's Day, and discovered some usefulness for the tissue paper.



Papaw shows off his wheels. A new racing game for the Wii.




Aaron shows us what his favorite TV is. We get to go over all the seasons on DVD this summer! Season 5 will be out just in time for his birthday too!

I love all the dad people in my life! I was blessed to be able to marry an amazing man who is an amazing father to my children. Thanks, Love!!
