M is for.......

Modesty

I think Ive written about this before. But its dear to my heart.
Im a woman, I have {almost} three daughters.
Its my job as a mommy to guide my daughters.
To teach them to guard their brothers heart.
To guard their eyes.

Its SOOOO hard. The clothing they have out there, even for infants and toddlers!
REALLY they need to have bikinis!
There is absolutely no way I would ever buy that for my little one!
Ive heard, well they are just babies, I wouldnt let my teenager wear that,
well what are you training them to do?

(Tankinis are different, as long as the belly isnt showing, I dont care)

The dress' for little ones are low cut.
shorts are short.
Its so hard!

I was watching 'Little Couple' and the wife said, "They are making so many clothes for little kids that are worthy of being adult clothes, it makes me happy, but I dont know how appropriate it is for kids"

How cool would it be for our daughters to have so much respect for themselves, that they crave to be modest, that they crave to please our father in heaven. That they wanna keep something left to the imagination for their one day hubbies.

I LOVE when my hubby says, "Oh you cant wear that out unless you wear a sweater or an undershirt!" Sometimes I dont see it! He is protecting me! He LOVES ME! He is not controlling me.

This (jibberish, I have a really bad headache) post stemmed from a blog I read this morning. I REALLY want you to read it! :

"Tell her Mama!" 

If you read the same post HERE she has added answers to a 
twitter poll she did, just scroll to the bottome!! 


Question for you:
Whats your favorite dessert?

Mine is Creme Brulee'!!

Random Ramble Rant Rave!

RRRR
SUPER!

Hmmmm
Im officially 37 weeks.
Im still grasping onto the fact that Im pregnant.
Still kinda dont believe it.
I dont think Im in denial.
Just busy, I have 2 others.
My middle isnt even a year and a half yet.
My MIDDLE!
WOW!

Across the room I see a box of Pampers NB diapers.
SO LITTLE!
To my right is the Rock n' Play.
She will be here soon.
Three will be tough.
BUT I can do it!
I have an AMAZING hubby!
He will be taking a week off work!


Ive decided, and hopefully I stick to this,
not to post on FB when I go into labor.
To wait, until Miss Penelope is in my arms.
Why?
Privacy... Less stress...
Not to here my cell going off every 3 minutes asking for an update.

Once she is here though, you all will know!
Ive been asked if I would like visitors.
OF COURSE!
I would love it!

Whether in the hospital, or in my home.
For the most part you are welcome.
Unless your a creeper stalker I do not know.
I really would appreciate if you do not come by!
Thanks!
Some say we look alike....
OH and warning would be nice!
more than a 10 minute warning.
give me a few hours notice.
I may not be dressed.
There may be poo diapers all over the place.
Might be stuff piled to the ceiling.
I might smell bad.

And I know, a new baby good excuse.
but decency isnt bad either.
Nick took today off work.
Its slow, and he didnt mind a four day weekend.
So we are gonna go play.
Thinking the beach.
A long walk.

Ive kinda been stuck inside.
My Dr. wanted me to take it easy, not do to much.
No early early baby.
BUT I can now!
Im gonna take advantage of it, before Im stuck with a newbie!

UGH!
Something that DRIVES ME INSANE!
PLEASE oh PLEASE dont reprimand my children,
when Im A FOOT away doing it myself.
If Im not in the room, or for some reason not paying attention
And my child is about to kill someone, or herself,
then by all means, please say something.
But NOT when Im there, already taking care of it!

My eldest daughter,
She is creepy.
ok not really....
well kinda..
She says weird things.
Does weird things...
and levitates!:
Kristen pointed out her concentration!

My whole little family is still sleeping, the back door is open.
No one is outside.
all I here is the morning birds chirping away.
nice morning crisp air!
WONDERFUL!
Im liking this.
maybe this is the calm before the Storm!
BABY today!?
HAHA
She can share a Birthday with my best buds hubby!
Add caption

Have I mentioned, we have a big field where I live.
Its pretty.
There are trees you can sit under, and a mass of grass the kids and run around and play in!
Its pretty coolio!
In the evening there are hundreds of bunny rabbits!
Anbo loves them.
I let her go out and 'try to catch one'
HA they are so fast. Its pretty cute though.
And when it gets dark....
There is a family of coyotes that come out to 'play with the bunnies'
A mommy, daddy and eight, yes EIGHT cubs!
kinda scary!
Bunny Hunting
Well this little Random Ranting Raving Ramble I think is long enough.

L is for.....

Lazy

Im EXHAUSTED! I cant think of anything to write. Baby is making it very hard to sleep, Im getting MAYBE 3 hours a night. My hips are KILLING me. a little more than 3 weeks till D day! So out of my laziness here is a song, I LOVE it and its always been a FAVE!:

Lyrics:
All the chisels I've dulled carving idols of stone
That have crumbled like sand neath the waves
I've recklessly built all my dreams in the sand
Just to watch them all wash away
Through another day, another trial,
Another chance to reconcile to one who sees past all I see
And reaching out my weary hand I pray that you'd understand

You're the only one who's faithful to me
All the pennies I've wasted in my wishing well
I've thrown like stones to the sea
I've cast my lots, dropped my guard searched aimlessly
For a faith to be faithful to me
Through another day, another trial
Another chance to reconcile to one who sees past all I see
And reaching out my weary hand I pray that you'd understand
You're the only one who's faithful to me
You're the only one who's faithful to me
 

And here is Nelly a few weeks ago, this was NOTHING compared to what she does:

Now off to NAP! :o)

Tater Tot Tuesday

 Im Linking up with Rock A Bow for Toddler Talk Tuesday!!! YOU SHOULD TOO!

UGH Sorry no photos! My computer is not being my friend!

In the car on our way to Target, Anbo was in the back seat of the car. She started asking me,"Mom do you want to smell cars with me?" I told her that I didnt want to. She asked me again, I again told her no. She then asked Nick,"Dad do you want to smell cars with me?" Nick also said no. After a few minutes she asks me,"Mom can we smell daddy?" I said "ok, when we get out of the car we can smell daddy...." I sat there a bit confused. Then Anbo started to spell,"D-A-D, Whats next mom in smelling daddy...!!!" HAHAHA

Emersyn's new trick is removing her diaper, thank God its only been pee diapers so far.  Well Em took her diaper off while playing with Anbo in Anbo's room. I here my eldest yell, "MOM I SEE EMERSYN'S BUTT!!" I wait a few minutes, then Anbo comes out wearing Em's diaper and she says, "Look mom Im dressed up like Emers!" (Anbo is wearing nothing but Emersyns diaper!!!) Im laughing hysterically, when Anbo says," Emersyn peed in this diaper its all wet!" EWWWW

Anberlyn went to her first real dentist appointment, cleaning and all, she did GREAT no cavities! Im praying she (as well as all my kids) inherit their daddies PERFECT teeth!

On our way home from my parents home, Emers was EXHAUSTED! Anbo was cracking up as Em's eye's were opening and closing. I was watching em in the mirror and cracking up as well. At one point Ems eyes rolled back in her head and all you could see was the whites of her eyes. Mid laugh Anbo let out a small shriek and started crying, she kept saying, "Emers is scary! Emer's scared me!!" She wouldnt stop crying... I couldnt stop laughing!!!

Anbo listens to the "fish" (A Christian radio station) a lot on the radio. She say's "Its mommies music!" She knows a lot of the songs, which is super cute and talks about Jesus constantly. Today she is talking about how Jesus is God, and how she has LOTS of friends like Jesus. She says Jesus has the most friends!

Emersyn is WALKING! WOOOOO!! At this point she is still crawling and walking. When big sister gets near she drops down to her knees. I think she is scared Anbo will knock her down!

K is for.....

Kiss

Lets travel back a few year, back to the year 1995 (maybe 1996) I attended my first purity conference held at my church. We had to get a signed consent form from our parents because there was images show I NEVER wanna see again, MAN STD are brutal. That has nothing to do with anything, just thought I would share.

Anyhow this lady spoke. She was (and still is) GORGEOUS, she talked to us about how she saved her first kiss for her wedding day. How she waited for the Lord to bring her the man of her dreams, and when he was found, their love was way beyond a physical lust. She had so many wonderful things to say, I remember sitting there in awe. I remember wanting what she had.

So that day I made a promise, a promise before God. I was gonna save my first kiss for my wedding day. I got made fun of. I got guys trying to take it away from me. I dated. ( I so should have just waited for God to bring my man to me!!!) It was a hard few years. I was passionate though, I shared my passion with fellow youth, I spoke at little conferences. I shared that I wanted to give my future husband a full gift, bow and all, not a gift that had started to be given to someone else. I tried not to give my heart away to other guys. I did. Its tough. THAT kiss though was saved!!!

June 28th, 2003 I gave my man that kiss! Was it an out of this world kiss.... NOPE HAHA. It was only a quick peck, a ton of people staring, a little bit of pressure. BUT LATER that evening, I got that kiss I was waiting for! It was magical! It was AMAZING and I will NEVER forget it!

Nick is the one and only person I have shared a kiss with, he is the one and only man I have shared my body and WHOLE heart with!

I would not trade that for the world! I thank God for keeping me strong.

J is for...

Jackie

I had a hard time trying to figure out what 'J' was gonna be, as I thought I was in labor last night (over 2 hours of contractions, and pressure) I thought I was gonna use J as 'Just Born' my way of announcing the arrival of my newest baby girl..... That didnt happen.
Then I was gonna do 'Jumping Jacks' and talk about my husband 'inch loss'. He has been working out like a mad man, and the inches are just falling off him!
So then my "J" was gonna be Jealous! As I am a bit over his looking AMAZING and me a preggo blob next to him!

Then as I was scrubbing the tub,  it hit me, Jackie! my J will be Jackie!!! I was so excited that here I am writing mid scrub.(I hope she is ok with this....)
I met Jackie a few year back, pre kid. Her hubby was the young adult/married pastor (or something like that) Nick and I joined a young marrieds small group at the church we were attending. The group we were in was held at their home. At that time, I really didnt get to know them all that well. Soon they moved, we moved, never to be seen again.......

But now years later, via Facebook, we have kinda reconnected kinda. Are we BFF? no. Do we talk? not really. Do we read one anothers blogs, CERTAINLY! I read her blog and smile. She is real, she tells it like it is, she has her happy moments, and her sad. She also reads my little blog. She comments, she encourages, shes great!

She has lived a life that makes me look up to her. I feel like I can turn to her, ask her questions, get advice and I think she would gladly do so. I havent tried, yet. I get so much out of what she writes.She loves Jesus. She has 3 AMAZING children, who love Jesus. Her hubby... well... he loves Jesus as well!

I pray I can only be like her, to raise my children like her. To love and trust in the Lord as she has done. Has she had her short comings... Im sure. As we all do. Our short comings only make us stronger and trust in our Father in Heaven that much more.

So as I had many thoughts on J, I think I picked the best one! I know my words are jumbled and short and I think thats ok!

Thank You Miss Jackie,!!!!
