By Praises from a Wife and Mommy! -
So hard to believe my lil girl is 4!!!  

 2007-Birthday

This was such a joyful day for daddy and I!  You surprised us with and early arrival (4 weeks)!  Mommy's water broke at school while teaching!  You were a good baby and mommy loved to sing and cuddle with you every day!

Happy 1st Birthday! 2008
You had a special cake all to your self as we thought you had an allergy but you were healed from it!!  :)   We had a fish theme at this party and it was at a park near the river.  You were growing up so fast, just learning to walk!   

Happy 2nd Birthday-2009

 Butterflies were the theme and you had a lot of fun when we went outside to play.  We had recently just moved and you had already made several new friends that came to your party.  You were starting to talk talk talk learning new words each day.  

Happy 3rd Birthday-2010

This was your first "princess" themed party.  You looked stunning in your purple dress which matched your dolly who you named Belle.  Your personality really started to pop out here as you would let us know what you liked and disliked.  

Happy 4th Birthday- 2011

"Tangled" is your favorite movie with Princess Rapunzel.  You sing and dance to all her songs and you have been talking about your party all week because you had so much fun.  You had a big year as you became a big sister, what an amazing big sister you are.  You love to hold your brother and you help mommy with changing your brother by throwing his diapers away and you get burp rags for me often.  What a great little servant heart you have! 

Dear Selah, 
Mommy, Daddy, and your baby brother love you so much.  I feel so blessed that God has entrusted me to raise you.  You are growing up to be a beautiful person inside and out and you teach me many lessons as each day passes.  I continue to pray for you daily.  I pray that your heart would continue to grow in love with our Heavenly Maker, I pray for your future and I even pray for your future husband.  I ask for guidance often but you truly are a good girl and you make mommy and daddy proud.  This last year I had so much fun doing crafts, having our shopping dates, cuddle times, and water park adventures.  I am looking forward to this next year and I trust and know you will continue to grow in love with Christ and walk the straight and narrow path!  

Love, hugs and kisses, 

Mommy

The Marriage Manual: 3 Secrets To A Happy And Lasting Marriage

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy! -

Well, you have gone and done it! You’ve stood across from the love of your life and made your vows in front of your family, friends, and God. You’ve entered into the contract of marriage, but while it may be a solemn contract, that certainly doesn’t mean that it shouldn’t be fun. It’s strange how many newlyweds expect life to undergo some kind of seismic shift upon tying the knot, assuming that their lives will not become a pattern of domestic drudgery with pleasure, intimacy and fun going out the window and that elusive spark between you fading away until you either can’t stand the sight of each other or are happy to tick over despite the grinding mutual resentment. Happily, the truth is that marriage is neither a ball and chain nor a grueling assault course. But like anything worth having, a marriage needs to be maintained.

Orbeez beads and glow sticks= SENSORY FUN!

My daughter got one of those Orbeez bead sets for Christmas.  I was so amazed at how those beads grew in the water.  It was so much fun!  :)  My daughter made her necklaces with the beads but we had a lot more m beads so we have been using them for some fun sensory play.     We put the beads in a dish and we got some glow sticks and put them in the container with the beads.  The beads looked really awesome.  :) My daughter loved it.  She played in the dark with the beads and glow sticks for a long time.  :)
