Beautiful Heartbreak

Tonight a dear friend of mine, that has been going through her own beautiful heartbreak, shared this music video - with me. She said she thought of me because of the inspirational speaker part. I guess I would have never thought that my life would lead me to become an inspirational speaker. Who would have thought. Now I can say that I have had 3 speaking engagements and a TV appearance. On my way to hopefully touch the lives that need to hear my message.

To all of you - that have had a beautiful heartbreak. I will hold your hand and share with you my heart and help you see your view.

May we all climb to see the view.

New Things

Time flies...Grayson is so stinkin cute. He is now smiling, smiling and smiling. I love waking up in the morning and seeing him grin. How sweet and simple life can be.

Facebook - Okay I gave in. I tried very hard to stay away, however my friend Shells, you are so in trouble introduced me to pintrest. Loving it...loving new ideas.

Festival of Trees - hard hard work. Who ever thought that decorating a tree would be so much stress...it is worth the stress.

Completing tasks..I have been working on finishing...Finishing anything the purpose: to try and get more things accomplished.

May we all take in new things...

Shower of Love

Today my dearest and closest friends gathered together to eat yummy food and to see Baby Grayson. They have been there with me through being a freshman in College - to a wonderful trip to Honduras for my Minor in Spanish, from dating boys- to marriages and now babies. Our circle is complete with M- having her boy in December!

My friends have shared with me the heartache of Livi's death and the miracle of happiness with Grayson. The one thread that we share together is how we have grown stronger through the experiences that life has brought to all of us.

When I was looking for pictures for Livi's tree, I came across these beautiful pictures that showed Jesus holding a little baby. I have never had anything touch me as much as these pictures.

These pictures to me remind me of a different type of shower of Love.

Please check out ChristianFineArt on Etsy.com

I am so excited to have these pictures for Livi's tree.

These would make great awesome Christmas gifts or any special kind of gift.

May we all shower each other with love.

Livi's Festival of Trees

We are getting ready to do our Wings tree to celebrate Livi and to give back to Primary Children's Hospital in honor of little Livi. Through Festival of Trees.

After doing the fundraiser for my dear friend Lori, I decided why not get items donated. I went to my favorite site Etsy.com - and received donations and a heart full of gratitude for the kindness and generosity around the world - literally.

To give back to all my donors I am going to do a blog to give back. Hopefully my little followers of my little blog can pay them back and get some cute ideas for birthdays, holidays or just any days!

I can't wait to share with you all the tree for Livi!!!

Things I have learned

Since only getting two hours of sleep at a time....yes Sophie...just like you!
This is what I have learned being a Mom today.

1- I never thought that brushing your teeth for the day was the only make-up I would ever be able to get done!

2- Never ever wear a cute outfit by morning and expect it to be clean by the time you have to leave for a party.

3- If you want us on time to the party - please give us the time a hour a head so when we get there we are really on time.

May we love learning...

Mazie

So now that little Grayson has joined our family, Damon has seemed to have forgotten we have two dogs to take care of. One night coming home I found Mazie on our front porch and it appeared that she had been there for a long time because she was sitting on the steps sound asleep in front of our front door. Then tonight we had some neighbors stop by to come and visit Grayson. I remember asking Damon, "Have you seen Mazie?" He said, oh yeah she is in the house. Then I fell asleep to take a nap, those are needed right now...more than ever. Our neighbors came to the door and said, "I think Mazie...has been outside for a while." Yep, more like hours. I feel so bad. I am a horrible dog mom. We have now decided that I will be in charge of letting the dogs out to make sure that they all come home. At least we live on a quiet street!

It is kind of crazy right now.

May we all remember our pets, if we let them out....to bring them in!

Mazie is the gray and white puppy we adopted from a dear friend. Dear friend if you read this please know we are still good dog parents!!!
