Memorial Weekend

We went to North Ms and to Collierville, TN for Memorial weekend. We had a great time visiting with family. We spent the night at my parents house on Thursday night and then headed to see Granny on Friday. Granny was in a great mood and told us all about having 8 children and I love that all 8 still live close by. I think that says a lot about her and her family. I love that I married into such a wonderful family.

On Friday night Kay's side of the family came over and we had a great time visiting with them. Reid only got in trouble a few times, but overall he did good. Saturday night Justin and I went out on a date; we went to eat and to the movies. It is always so strange to be out without Reid. Living away from family it is hard to leave him behind and just spend time with Justin.

Sunday we went back to my parents and from there we took the boat out. It was so hot, but so much fun. I am glad we got to spend the day with our nephew Blake. Reid and Blake played on the boat and then Blake knocked out in his Mimi's lap and took a nap. Of course Reid never stops long enough to sleep. Reid loved feeling the wind in his face.

It was a great visit.... Can't wait to do it again

Happy Mother's Day

We have had a great day today. I love being a mom and I love being celebrated each year. Last year we dedicated Reid to the Lord. I really thought about that a lot today. I pray I am doing my best to raise Reid to love the Lord. That was my prayer today as I prayed over Reid that God would give me the wisdom to raise him with God always getting the glory.

After church and naps Justin and Reid went swimming. Reid has a new swim ring we are trying this year and he is doing great. I think by the end of the summer he will not need any assistance. He is doing so good and loves to splash his daddy and he loves to keep his tongue in the water. All he wants to do is drink the water.

I am praying today for all those women who have lost a baby or have not conceived. I pray that your heart will be comforted today.
