Jennifer Turns 30!!

In just a few short hours we will continue to celebrate the birthday of my sweet daughter, Jennifer. I can not believe it has been 30 years. What an amazing precious time we have enjoyed together.
Jennifer,I cried on your 4th birthday because you were already so grown up! You were in charge and determined. It has served you well. I am so honored to call you mine. Everyone that truly knows you, loves you. So many depend on you in so many ways. I know it is a tremendous pressure, but you always deliver your best.
The last 10 days have been so scary for Phillip's health and recovery. The responsibility of our studio with a very important event out of town, your children, along with the normal studio activity, has been more than most could ever endure. You have held on and tried so hard to keep up with all the responsibilities.
I am so blessed to have you working with me. I love how you and Abby have become sisters. It is exciting to watch you and Abby teach Venessa about all the crazy duties in our daily life.
Thank you for the most precious, well behaved, sweet, wonderful grandsons any grandmother could ask for!
God allows us to work together, and I cherish that privilege. Thank you sweet daughter.
The party was wonderful on Saturday night with all our closest friends and family. I loved all the emails and calls from the ones who could not attend. We know you are in their hearts.
Your Daddy and I love you with all our hearts.
Thank you for your first 30 exciting years.
We look forward to all the joy to come!
Love,
Mom

GOD IS SO GOOD!!

God blessed me with a beautiful daughter and precious son. Steve brought a very special little girl with him to our marriage. I love her as my own. Then I prayed for the perfect mate for each of them. God answered that prayer in such a powerful way. 


Walking into the Covenant ER Trauma room last night and seeing my amazing son in law, Phillip on that stretcher was so difficult. It is the sight you hope you never see. My years in the nursing field did not prepare me. He looked as if he lost a fight. But, of course he would say, you should have seen the other guy!! 


My heart aches for his sweet parents in Louisiana. So hard to call them and explain the accident.


Bicycles can go so very fast and stop abruptly. He knows this fact firsthand. Our praises are that he is mending nicely, no surgery, remembers everything. Even, what a nice Mother in law he has! Well, anyway, he is doing great. Time will heal, he will be up and going again very soon. Praise the Lord!! 


Thank you, to all of our very dear family and friends. Your prayers covered him, and we know that is what will get him through this time. He has had excellent care from all the physicians. The hospital staff is the best! Thank you for all you have done.


I love this young man so much. Please continue to pray for his healing.
