Be Thankful

This Friday at Bobby's football game, a player on the opposing team got hurt. We see this often during games and usually the player needs a little care and walks himself off the field. Not this player. He broke his neck and is facing the possibility of being paralyzed for life. One moment he and his family were happy, enjoying a football game, and the next their whole lives have changed. It made me think. Tragedy can strike at any moment for any of us. I hate to think that way, but it is the truth.
Our lives are so busy and sometimes it seems like we live day to day and don't stop to think about how much we treasure the people around us. When you finish reading this, hug your kids; hug your husband or whoever it is that you love. Tell them you love them everyday, because you never you never know what the next day may bring.
God Bless!

Happy Birthday Levi

Do you see that face??? How can such a cute thing be SO much trouble? We have had Levi for a month today. While he has brought a lot of joy to the girls, he has also brought a lot of headaches to me. Luckily, my mom is a dog trainer and is whipping him into shape. I've come to realize that puppies are a lot like babies: they eat, sleep, poop, keep you up all night and make a mess of your house. And when you are blessed enough for them to take an unexpected nap, you have to be quite not to wake them up. I am sure it will get better soon. But seriously, we love him. Most of us anyways.
