Water park fun

Day 27 (July 31)
The perfect way to spend a hot summer day!!

Weekly pictures

The hardest thing about this project is getting all the pictures posted in the right order. It's not easy trying to move things around in the posting window!! Anyway, hope you're not getting bored with the pictures because I'm having fun :) As you can see, one of our cameras needs replacing- ugh.

Day 19 (July 23)

Well, I do see something that is growing...... It's not Reed- it's his hair!!! He just had a hair cut on day 1 and it is long again.

Day 20 (July 24)

Today we went to Noah's birthday party. Reed has been talking about Noah for weeks and couldn't wait to get to the party. We got there and he did not want to play with anyone. He sat at the back of they gym and watched everyone run and play. Just one of his off days I guess but it really makes me wonder if he plays with the kids at preschool or if he just keeps to himself. He's sure not shy at home :)

Grief

How do you help a friend who is grieving? Pray for them, send cards, spend time with them, listen to their thoughts and sometimes not even say anything, pray, pray and keep praying. I wish there was more I could do. It hurts to see a friend in pain. My sweet sister is also hurting because her best friend is living her last days in the flesh. She has suffered and fought the ugly cancer beast for a few short years and is now ready to join her grandmother and mother and walk the streets of gold.
I was reading a blog about a week ago that linked to a book that was for the grieving parent. I can't find the blog now and I'd really like to purchase this book for my friend. The book was titled "Heart To Heart" or something like that. Do you know this book?? Please comment if you do!

Day 13- Reed's new bed:

Day 14 Grandpa's boy:


Day 15: Day 16- silly boy!


Day 17 getting ready for nap time with Woody and Buzz:

Day 18- chocolate banana milkshakes, yum:

I have 2 different cameras and it's so funny how the settings make his skin tone look completely different. My sweet boy is growing up. Tonight when we were getting ready for bed he said "I love you SO MUCH mama" Thank you Jesus for placing this precious child in our care. I love him SO MUCH!!!

Reed loves water and we've used out kiddie pool until we've outgrown it! It's quite a sight to see the both of us splashing around in there :0]

Days 4 - 6

Point Mallard Water Park

Today we took my niece Stacie to the water park for her 11th birthday. Hard to believe she's 11 already! It was a beautiful day and we had a blast watching Stacie and Reed play in the water.

Always kiss me goodnight

Day 2

We attended a celebration of life tonight with a dear friend who just lost her son. He was a young 26 years old and passed away early Sunday morning from a massive heart attack. My heart hurts for their loss.

Always kiss your children goodnight and tell them that you love them. They are a gift from God and we don't know how long we may be blessed with our precious gifts from above.

Project 365

I'm copying this idea from Kristy over at A Day With the Gray's
I love it! A photo journal that captures each day for one year. Go ahead, be a copy cat!!
