A story unfolding...: Priceless.

Priceless.

Tomorrow is our annual trip to Fresno, California. We started the tradition last Christmas, driving down to take the kids to the famous Christmas Tree Lane.

Last year, Savannah was conceived in December. My dad made little jokes, that he was never going back to Christmas Tree Lane with us again! Yesterday in thinking about the upcoming trip, I imagined what it would be like if she was still here with us.
Lets see here...

Stops every two hours to breastfeed?

Ugh...

Fussy baby in carseat from driving for 6+ hours?

Waahhh...

Sharing Christmas Tree Lane

with a beautiful almost Four month old?

Priceless.

That's okay though,

Next year.

Well I am off to pack...

15 pairs of basketball shorts

& a holey moley t-shirt anyone?

We do get to drive past Davis again...

Is it weird I am SO excited to do so???

Don't miss me too much!

I'll be back with pictures!!!

Me, Myself, and I

I am a woman, a wife, a mother, a daughter, a sister, an aunt, and a friend. I am sarcastic, but sweet. I am smart, but almost always naive. I believe that everything happens for a reason, and no matter what things will always work out. It may not be what I wanted, but it works out none the less. I am powerful. I have the power to be the best mother and wife that I can be, and I have the power to do everyday what needs to be done. I am, and always will be, my harshist critic, and strive for unobtainable perfection. I wish I could give myself selflessly to everyone, as only one man did before...

I love the simple things in life...God's love, spending time with my family, holding hands, hugs, kisses, sitting outside and just talking, going for drives, long phone calls just to catch up, true friendship, & emails.

I love all three of my children's laughs, their smiles, their touches, and their individual personalities. I have a fourth child, whom God needed more than we needed her here with us. Her circumstances were incompatible with this life, but we continue to praise Him. I love all four of them unconditionally more and more each day and nothing could ever change that.

I am a Christian, and I am living for God. I am doing the best I can to raise my kids to know the Lord with everything He has blessed them with. If salvation is their only accomplishment I will be grateful for that.

I am just me.
