Busy Busy Busy


Okay so my friend Jessica(aka Ticket Jessica,lol) got onto me and told me to update!! We have been so busy lately! Last weekend we went to JJ's grandpa's down by Broken Bow. We had a blast! I loved seeing Lane interact with his Great Grandfather!! We, as Lane and I, are just getting over a stomach bug, and now this weekend JJ and I are going to OU/TX!! We are so ready and excited!! This is our Anniversary trip(yes it's a month late!) Now onto what you really want to hear about, LANE!!

He is such an amazing smart little boy! Each day is something new!! Most are good, some aren't so good!! On Monday night, we were at the dinner table with Tayler and Zach, and Lane started saying his ABC's! He only skipped a few letters, but AMAZING!! He is speaking in sentences now, and is VERY bossy!! He is still having a rough time with school but we are hoping that it gets easier each time!! So onto the pics!! ENJOY!!

A Mother's Love

I was on facebook and a fried of mine posted this link...I cried as I watched it!! http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/38988444
AMAZING!! It got me to thinking about what a mother's love can do for a child.

I never truly understood this until I had Lane. I would see a child fall and all it took to make that child stop crying/hurting was a kiss from Momma. I see this action everyday with Lane, and it amazes me each time. No one else's kisses work as fast as mine! But this video got me to thinking about what else a Mother's Love can do.

It can help a broken heart. I know this from so many past experiences, that is until I met JJ. Broken heart after broken heart, she was there to pick me up. However I mean broken heart in a total different way also. JJ and I had a four year journey to get to finally become parents. In that four years our mother's would pick us up, wipe away the tears, and tell us that everything was going to be okay. As it turned out they were right. Now we have Lane, and I can honestly say that a Mother always knows best.

We are so truly blessed to have these women in our lives, and I hope that one day Lane will feel the same way about me. I know without a doubt that he loves me, I see it each day. From the time he wakes up with a I love you Mommy, to the time he goes to bed saying "Sing Sunshine again Mommy"(we sing you are my sunshine each day) When he hurts my heart hurts for him, and I feel that is the reason why a mother's kiss is the cure all. The love that Lane has brought into this house and our lives is one that only a child can bring. They truly are God's Miracles. The day I became a mother is the day I stop living for myself and start living for him. So Lane, I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART. YOUR MY SON ARE MY SUNSHINE.
