Favorite Things

I thought I would share a few of my favorite things that I am using this year to help me study God's word.

The first being the Scripture Reading Plan I am using provided by the Journey church. I like it because if you get behind it is easy to get caught up. :)

The second is what I am using to help me memorize verses. I have always wanted to memorize Philippians and shared that desire with my husband. He directed me to this site which has a VERY helpful guide to memorizing Philippians!

"Toffee & Mo"

If mommy gets "toffee" EG gets "mo" which translates whipped cream. Now, EVERYTIME we walk in to Target she points to where Starbucks is and asks for "mo, mo, mo". She was so proud of her mini cup and mini straw. What a big girl!!!

Caterpillar's and Barrett's

A few weekends ago, we woke up and EG discovered all her barretts and wanted them in her hair. So I started putting them in. As soon as one got in, she wanted another until they were all FINALLY in her hair. My, my, how lovely!!
Later that day we walked outside to find this creature just out of our front door. I have never in my life seen a Caterpillar so BIG. I thought about capturing it and taking it to school the next day but decided against it.

** EDIT**

I just played this video and Emma was listening and saying all the numbers after I said them (on the video). It was too precious. I'll have to video her watching the video!!!

Love Is In The House...

Me to Emma: I Love You Baby! Emma to Me: I Nu You Ba-beee! It is too sweet. She has just now started adding Ba-beee to the ends of things that she says...like I do when talking to her...maybe I should stop??? It is too sweet to hear her though!

Please Pray

My Dad's mom (Gan is what we call her) was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer last Month. They did a complete hysterectomy and removed the tumor and the portion of her colon that it was wrapped around. She was doing fine and recovering well for several weeks and then last week, had a setback. A portion of her colon ruptured so she had to go back to the hospital to have surgery to fix it. Since then she has really been struggling, her heart has been quite erratic and her breathing has gotten worse. They have drained about 1800ml of fluid from her lungs in the last few days but they have now filled back up like they were. They are not sure where the fluid is coming from. Her heart rate and breathing is now stable but she is not showing any significant signs of improvement. As of right now she could go either way. She could start the slow and steady climb to healing on this earth or experience the ultimate healing of our Lord. Please for strength and encouragement for my grandmother and for God's will to be done.
My mom and dad are flying in to Dallas late tomorrow night to see my grandmother and help my uncle take care of things there. Please keep them in your prayers as they travel.

ROLL TIDE ROLL

I surprised Josh with tickets to the Alabama/Kentucky game (thanks to Stan & Harris). I told him about 9:00 that morning before we left at 10:00. He was pretty excited! :) EG stayed with the Lewis girls and 2 sitters that day. They said she did good...I hope so. It was a looooong day.
We took a group picture but I don't have it yet.
