as i hope you read last, i'm an aunt again! nephew JC (i've decided against nephew buckaroo b/c it's to long to type LOL) is precious!
i wondered last year when i found out my sisnlaw was prego with twins, how would i love 2 babies equally. my sibs and i used to "accuse" my rents of loving one of us more or having favorites. i never did understand how they couldn't. now i do.
i wondered in january when i found out about nephew JC, was i going to be able to love this niece/nephew as much as i love nephews L and D. well, that's the amazing part of God's love and how He makes us. yes, there's the same amount of love for all three, and if there's ever anymore to be born, there'll be more love.
so, that's really what has been new with me - nephews,family, work, church, repeat.
meg had her baby too! precious juliana! and my best friend from beauty school (oh how i would have NEVER made it without "my friend Lori") Lori. my family still teases me how i never called her "lori". it was and still is, "my friend lori". well, meg had baby girl j one week before nephew JC and lori had baby girl alizah the day after him. the last time i saw lori, she was pregnant with her oldest daughter who's almost 2. the amazing part is, when i went to visit them in the hospital for this daughter, after not seeing each for over 2 years (i've never met her oldest), it's like nothing had changed. i love friendships like that! it was like it had been 2 days since we last saw each other.
so, babies, yes that's what's new with me! haha!
i've been praying about some things involving me,myself and i. i also feel so guilty when praying for myself, so i usually don't. i always can think about how much more other people need. so that's where my prayers tend lead. i've decided to become a little bit selfish and start putting my needs closer to the top of my list ... we'll see how long this lasts ....
i can't believe i've found time to blog, but i have been reading some regularly. and this morning i saw where Meg had given me this :
so here's the deal with this lil award:
rule 1 is to thank her for the award
thanks Megs! so sweet : ) just like you and baby J!
rule 2 is to copy and paste it.
it's cute,ain't it?!
rule 3 is to list 3 things i love about myself:
my dependability
my devotion to all things in my heart and mind (family,friends,work,church, most of all God)
my smile. it's amazing how a smile can change one's day
rule 4 is to post a picture i love ...
hmmm... just one? well, seeing as i haven't had a working camera in about 9 months, and my mother never loads her's on the computer ... this is one of my top favs
nephew d and nephew L sporting their "my aunt rocks" shirts bought by me : )
rule 5 is to pass this along to 5 other people
