Finally - It's all coming together:)

After over a year of only "day-dreaming" of the end result - today I am finally getting a good taste.

Mommy's Notes journal is actually becoming a reality! Being a NICU mommy myself, I felt a need to create a tool specifically for those NICU warriors out there. During Kaz's one-and-a-half month stay in the hospital, I found it not only relieving at the very moment when journaling, but also rewarding when looking back at all the amazing milestones and accomplishments that my little guy had achieved.

The purpose of Mommy's Notes is to serve as a keepsake, a memory capsule, a beacon of hope, and most importantly a place to pour out your heart as a mother of a child of God.

Another thing that sets this journal apart are the stories included within the pages, which are real-life experiences that all NICU moms can relate to, learn from, and be inspired by. 

I'm so excited to get this in the hands of future mothers! I know that this project/mission has God's name all over it - looking forward to all the lives that will be touched...

“A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.”

Ecclesiastes 4:12 (NLT)

Big Day!

Tomorrow is a big day.... A day that I've dreaded for over a month now - but also a day that I know is only going to help our boy reach his goals for the future.

Kaz gets BOTOX tomorrow...a total of 6 shots (that I know of)?

As I laid him down tonight and said our bedtime prayer - I prayed those same words that I find myself saying every night. "God, I know that you have so many blessings planned and so many gifts to give to Kaz. Continue to work in him and let him shine your light."

I hope to have peace tomorrow and the ability to stay calm through all that's going on - this only being possible with a little help from above.

"The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still." - Exodus 14:14

Blog Slacker!

For the mere fact that I have been an extreme blog slacker, I am writing this post....

Not only do I need to update my blog, but also myself in all that has gone on the past couple of months - 

So here it goes!

Kaz is still quite obsessed with the guitar and trying to be like daddy as you can see.

Preston's sister had a baby - Welcome baby Jaden!

Our great friends the Keller's moved away:( back to their hometown...

Our other great friends the McKee's came down for a weekend visit!

Great dinner get-together with the Daugherty's and Pursiful's + our boys:)

Celebrating Vday at home with an extra wheel (ie - Kaz;)

Watching Daddy string Kaz's new Ukulele - thanks to a very spiffy hand-me-down from Papaw Zee, during our trip to TN to watch "Kicky's" softball team play.

Finally March has arrived along with warmer temps. We have officially put our house up for SALE!

I'm getting excited for summer and time at home with my sweet boy! 

Only 44 more days until summer break:)
