Can it get any sweeter than this?

Can it get any sweeter than this?

Bailey absolutely adores Shelbi,

so much that when Anna pretended

like she was going to take Shelbi

home with her,Bailey started crying.

Bailey thinks she is a baby doll.

Bailey said,"Hers feets are tiny".

They are just precious to us.

She said,"Hers cold" ,so she covered her up with

her baby doll blanket:)

And Jelly Bean(as we call Shelbi),

well she loooooved watching Bailey.

Thank You!

Thank you for what you've done for us.

I see many who tell each other "Happy Memorial Day" and sometimes that doesn't come so easy for me. Not because I'm not proud to be an American because I am most proud, not because I'm not thankful for what these heroes have done for me ,because I can't even begin to tell you how thankful I am, no it's not because I don't enjoy the freedom because I know we are a blessed nation,and no it's not because I disagree with the decisions our military is making and has made, because I am 100% behind our troops.
I've never looked at this day as a day of celebration. I look at it as a day that some Mom is grieving the loss of her child, some husband or wife will never see their companion coming home again ,some child is missing their daddy or mommy today, and many more relatives and friends are not feeling the joy ,but instead are missing and thinking about the one they loved and lost. Yes, I'm sure they are bursting with pride ,because their love one paid the ultimate sacrifice ,so that we can be the nation we are, but also they are heavy hearted today. My heart goes out to these families.
I think we to often view this day as just another day off or work,a time for picnics,get togethers, vacations,and fun. But lets not let that dim our mind of what today is truly about. Today is Memorial Day and may be never forget what they have done for us.

May God bless the families

who have suffered loss

and God bless the USA.
(Music takes a few seconds before it plays)

" I'm proud to be an American,

where at least I know I'm free.

And I wont forget the men who died,

who gave that right to me.

And I gladly stand up,

next to you and defend her still today.

‘Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land,

God bless the USA".

You Tell On Yourself

You Tell On Yourself

=============

You tell on yourself by the friends you seek,

By the very manner in which you speak,

By the way you spend your leisure time,

By the use you make of dollar and dime.

You tell what you are by the things you wear,

By the spirit in which you your burdens bear,

By the kind of things at which you laugh,

By the very things you have to have.

You tell what you are by the way you walk,

By the things of which you delight to talk,

By the manner in which you bear defeat,

By so simple a thing as how you eat.

By even the way you feel about yourself,

In these ways, and more, you tell on yourself.

~Author Unknown~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I read this and I got to thinking about how true this is. We really do tell on ourselves by the way we live. We may think no one is looking or listening,but really they are. Others are watching everything we do and listening to the things we say and from that they are drawing their opinion about who we are as a person. Are we living up to the life we claim or living a life that brings shame?

It's My Anniversary!

It's My Anniversary!

Hubby and I have been married for

21 years today!!!

Where has the time gone? It seems like forever ago that Brent asked me to marry him. Who would have ever thought that a little 18 year old country boy and a little 16 year old girl would make it? I really don't think anyone thought we would. All I can say is it was God and that is the only way I can explain. A marriage takes three (God + Man + Woman =All three) without that you are destined to failure. Since this is my anniversary, I decided to share a little about Brent and myself. I know I've already shared how we met,but let me tell you about our life together that started on 05-27-1989.

Our Life Together

Brent and I married on May 27th or 1989 at Brent's church "Beulahland Baptist Church. We both were active in church. He was going to Beulah and I was a member of Mt Olivet. I decided it was the right thing to do to leave my church and join with his and so I did. Church has been a very important part of our relationship. As I've said so many times before, I think of church like a shelter from the storms and the members like family. I think the best way to start your own life and  family is in church. If you are standing all alone when a storm comes,it's easy to get pulled apart ,but if you are standing together with a church family that supports you and is praying for you,then you are much less likely to be pulled apart. So my advice to all is to find you a church and start going.

When we started out. We didn't start at the top. We started out at the bottom...the very bottom. I think starting at the bottom and working up is the best way to do it. I think to many of the young couples try to start at the very top and end up failing ,because they get in over their heads with houses and cars that they really can't afford. They end up with nothing left to have a life ,because bills suck up everything they have. Then money become a problem and before long the stress is not worth it anymore,so they give up on the marriage and life they planned.

  As I said, we started at the very bottom. We rented a little single wide trailer that set in the middle of a cow pasture and we paid $100 a month for rent and we rented it for about 1 year. I didn't like it.It wasn't my dream house. I didn't enjoy being there,but I kept in mind that it was only temporary and that at the time it was all we could afford. I made the best of it and kept it clean and saved for our own place. At that time, Brent worked at a lawn mower shop and barely made $100 a week. I babysat for my mom(my lil brother Bryan) and for her neighbor and I barely made $100 a week, but we used our money wisely and we made it. We NEVER asked our parents for anything. We never borrowed or took from anyone and believe it or not we even saved money...really. We didn't even except government assistance. We chose to pay and make our own way. 

A little later that year, Brent started working with GA power. We managed to save enough for a down payment and we bought our own house. It was nice not renting. I was thankful to have my own house. It was a 3 bedroom brick house in Roswell that needed to be moved, so we got it at a pretty good deal. However, we faced our first loss,because someone decided to steal all the bricks,off of it before we got it moved...really So we ended up putting siding on instead. Then we had a man do our foundation and he decided(because we were young) that he would take advantage of us and he made our foundation ,but he done it wrong, so our house when it was set on the foundation never fit it right,so we spent the first 8 years working/fixing our home. Our blessing turned out to be a big job. But, we learned alot of good lessons along the way. The main one was ."If you want something done right, do it yourself",and pretty much that has been the way of life for us.

Then our family grew by 12 feet!!!!

God blessed our home in December of 1989 with our precious daughter "Anna Brooke".

Another daughter was sent from Heaven in Feb 1992 "Katie Danyelle"

And in 1993 we were surprised with twins!

"Jonanthan Brent" & "Lea Ashley"

I would say we pretty much had our hands full. I had 4 children age 3 and under and I LOVED IT! I really didn't mind having three in diapers. I was just sooooo thankful that God allowed me to have children.

I stayed home and kept my own kids,because that is what my Hubby wanted. He didn't want our children raised by other people. I enjoyed being home and I enjoyed every second with my children. However, I continued to babysit my little brother and a neighbor's child to help with income.

Brent got a new job in 1992 working for Caraustar Industries and he has been there ever since.

I would say our first 10 years were spent raising babies,working on a house, and building a life. 

That 10th year we bought my Father-In-Laws house,which was my hubby's childhood home. His dad had decided to sell the home place and my hubby wanted it. So we bought it and we are still here.

In 2001, our family grew by two more feet. God blessed us with a son "Jacob Noah". I prayed for this child and even asked God for a son and He blessed us with one.

And in 2005 ,God blessed us with our oldest daughter "Samantha"

she came to us through the foster care system at age 15.

That's how we became a family of eight:)

The best advice I can give on raising children is the same as with marriage.

Take them to church. Raise them up in church. Don't fail to carry them to the house of God. A child raised up in church is more likely to give their life to Him ,then a child who wasn't and getting involved in church doesn't come as natural for an adult, if they've never been in church.

We are a family leaning on God.

We have been blessed and God has done some amazing things in our lives. Although our lives haven't been perfect and we are not perfect people, we are trying to live for God. We are not the finished product just yet ,because God is still working on each of us, to make us what he wants us to be.

From the outside,we appear to have it all together and to be the perfect family, but we are not perfect. I don't want people to think that of us,because we are just like everyone else,doing our best to make it in this world. We've had our share of heart aches and pain,but they have helped us to grow as a family. God has brought us to where we are, for whatever reason. We don't know all the plans God has for us,but we know where He has brought us from and we trust that He will carry us the rest of the way.

Just A Nice Quote

I found this quote today while trying to find some family quotes

 and I really liked it,so I figured I'd share it with you too.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Whatever they grow up to be, they are still our children,

and the one most important of all the things we can give

 to them is unconditional love. Not a love that

depends on anything at all except

 that they are our children."

Sweet Little Brookelyn Shae

Five Generations

We have five generations now!

We actually have five generations on Brent's Dad's side and on my mom's side.

We have been very blessed.

Pictures below is from Hubby's side.

Billy Howell, Mittie Howell, Brent Howell,

Anna Howell Wesson,and Brookelyn Shae Wesson

Brookelyn got to meet her great-great 

grandmother for the 1st time on Sunday.

~~~~~~~~~

You don't choose your family.

They are God's gift to you, as you are to them.

Below in picture #1 is Hubby with his
grandmother (Mittie Howell)

 and our granddaughter Brookelyn Shae.
and

Picture #2 is Brookelyn playing with her great- grandpaw Billy Howell.

Brookelyn is blessed to have so many

 grandparents that love her.

Do your children have outside toys?

This is a re-post from last year,

but one I felt was worth being posted again.

If your children or grandchildren have outside toys, please take the time to check them before you send your children out to play. You need to check them *EVERYDAY*. These are pictures my Son-In-Law's mom sent me today and it hit home ,because we have this same toy in our yard right now. I've always been good about checking the climbers & playhouses, but I"ve never given much thought to the riding toys. ~~~~~~



Several times I've found black widows on the little tikes & step 2 climbers & playgrounds as well as our wooden gym set. So check them everyday. It is better to be safe then sorrry. Please take these pictures from my blog and add them to your blog...let's let as many people know as possible. Thanks, Sandy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I figured I'd add these too. These are the two most poisonous spiders in our area. I'm not sure I've ever seen a brown recluse, but I've killed tons of the black widows over the years.~~~~~~

How can I set my blog, so that my blog has that too? I've looked all over my blog trying to figure out how. So I figured maybe one of you can help. Thanks in advamce! ((hugs)) Sandy

One Day At A Time

This is one of my favorite songs and how I came up with the name of my blog. I have heard several versions but this is how my Grandma sang it to me.
One Day At A Time I'm only human.
I'm just a woman.
Help me believe, in what I could be,
And all that I am.
Show me the stairway,
That I have to climb,
And Lord for my sake,
Teach me to take,
One day at a time .

One day at a time sweet Jesus
That's all I'm askin' from You.
Just give me the strength,
To do every day
What I have to do.
Yesterday's gone, sweet Jesus,
And tomorrow may never be mine.
Lord help me today,
Show me the way,One day at a time
Do You remember,
When You walked among men?
Well Lord as you know
If you're lookin' below
It's worse now than then
Pushin' and shovin' Things crowdin' my mind But Lord for my sake,
Teach me to take,
One day at a time .

One day at a time sweet Jesus,
That's all I'm askin' from You.
Just give me the strength,
To do every day
What I should do.
Yesterday's gone ,sweet Jesus
And tomorrow may never be mine,
Lord help me today,
Show me the way,One day at a time...

Jelly Bean's Update

We are back from Children's. Little Jelly Bean's doctor was proud at how well she is doing. She was the doctor that made her a belly button...she did an amazing job! She said that she doesn't want to put a tube in her side just yet. She wants to give her more time to see if she can learn to eat by mouth. She said that Jelly Bean will most likely always be small for her age, because of her malabsorption problem,but that it shouldn't be a problem and other than that she believes that Jelly Bean will one day be normal and tube free!!!!!!! We are excited about this news:)

Today's Devotion

Verse-1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Thoughts- Most of my days are hectic and very busy but yet sometimes they are quiet and rather boring. From day to day and hour to hour I feel many things. Sometimes it's highs and other times it's lows. Sometimes ,I even struggle to understand why I feel one way or the other.
But I am so thankful that God knows exactly what I'm feeling and what I'm going through from day to day. He cares so much about me, my needs, and even the things that concern me, or that rattle my day. I can lay my struggles at his feet and walk away knowing that He cares and can handle what I can't. By putting it in God's hands, it becomes his to carry and not mine. My focus then shifts, from all the problems, to my God. The circumstances are still surrounding me, but so is His strength. My perspective of the mountain changes, when I realize, I am not climbing it by myself. My mind becomes fixed on God. He carries me to the top of what seemed like an un-crossable mountain, and showers me with His perfect peace and love. Thank you God!

Achievement or Resentment?

Achievement and resentment
Achievement creates, and resentment destroys. Which kind of world would you prefer to live in -- a world of achievement or a world of resentment?
It is easy to be resentful of someone who has accomplished more than you. But what purpose does that resentment serve?

Instead of giving in to resentment, you can transform its energy into something that will actually do you some good. You can transform it into positive inspiration and driving ambition.

A thousand days spent in resentment will just make you old and dejected. A thousand days spent on achievement will create a rich and fulfilling life.

You were born to achieve and you have a strong desire to achieve. You're fully capable of following that desire, and of creating great and wonderful achievements for your world.

If you feel the urge to be resentful, stop. Think about it, think about your own best interest, and choose achievement instead.

New Pics Of Bailey

I took a few new pics of Bailey over the weekend.She is at that age now, where it's hard to get her to let us take her pics. Being two,she just don't have time. She would much rather be playing. When you tell her to smile, she usually gives you this huge fake smile with her eyes closed and when you tell her to look at the camera she will ,but only for 1 whole second...lol But if you are lucky, you just might catch her looking and smiling:) She is so precious to us. I knew from the start that this little girl was special, but I never realized just how much,but I do now.We are so blessed to have her in our lives. She will ALWAYS be Uncle Brent & Aunt Sandy's baby girl.
Sweeter than pie...I'm not kidding.

Happiness Is Your Choice.

Don't let your happiness be held hostage. It is always yours to choose, to live, to experience.
You don't need anyone else's permission to be happy. Your life is magnificent not because someone says it is, but because you choose to see it as such. If you're unhappy, that's not someone else's fault. Take full responsibility for your own unhappiness, and you instantly gain the ability to create your own happiness.
Every day, you fulfill your most sincere expectations. Expect to be happy, and just like that, you are. Stop seeking in vain to arrange circumstances that will make you happy. Simply choose to be happy, and your circumstances start to line up around that happiness.
Your happiness is your choice. Choose it any time you wish.

-- Ralph Marston

Y-Young- I still feel pretty young:)

Z-Zebra (LOL It's all I could think of). Are Zebra's white with black stripes or black with white stripes?...hmmmm I've always wondered.

Yes? No? Maybe?

I have a crazy habit... When I'm driving I like to read license plates on all cars. But the weird thing is over and over lately & for the past year,I've noticed that the cars that seemed to always be infront of me had the word "ASK" as their license plate ID. It happened so often that I started keeping up with it. I even mentioned it to my Hubby how I kept seeing "ASK" tags everywhere I went. So I wondered (like the simple minded woman I am) if this was God showing me something. I know I'm weird (at least I'll admit it) or either the tag office decided to give half our county "ASK" tags and those people always seem to be going the same place I am. Do you believe God gives you signs? I do. Well ,just in case it was a sign from God, I "ASKED" God about it. I asked him to help me with the things I didn't have the answers to. I asked that his will be done in my life and that He would help me to know & do his will.
As a Christian, I often find myself praying to God to direct my path. When I have a decision to make, I need to know if it is right or wrong for me,so I ask God,because He knows my future better than me. Sometimes when I pray or have decisions to make, I struggle with if it is God's will or just Sandy's wants. My pastor preached on this a while back and He said," God ALWAYS answers every prayer. Sometimes his answer is yes. Sometimes his answer is no. Sometimes it is just wait a while." If that's the case then I often find myself in that wait a while line,because sometimes it takes me a while to know God's answer and to know his will.
Well, today I'm waiting for an answer. I have a very important decision to make. It is probably among the biggest decisions of my life. I've "ASKED" God about it and I'm waiting for an answer. But the problem is, I have to make this decision today,actually within the next few hours. A decision with a deadline is a very hard decision. What do you do when you find yourself in this spot?

Bailey's Call

Sweet Bailey is getting soooo big and smart too!
She has gotten to where she calls us all the time now to talk.
On Saturday, she called me and I just wanted to share a little of our conversation...she tickles me to death
To be only 2 she is one smart cookie:) ~~~~~~~Bailey's Call Me- "Hello"Bay-"Hey Aunt Sandy"Me-"Hey sweet baby"Bay-"You coming to get me?"Me-"If Mommy says I can,I will".Bay-"You can come get me right now?"(I hear her Aunt Maxine in the background saying,"Bailey you can't go to Aunt Sandy's today, because you've got to go with me to a birthday party")
Bay-"No Me not going to no party"Maxine-"Yes you are. Maybe you can go to Aunt Sandy's next week".Bay-"No, Me wants to go right now to Aunt Sandy's"Bay-"Aunt Sandy, Aunt Seen is being mean to me.(Seen is what she calls Maxine)"Maxine- "No I'm not.You gotta spend time with Aunt Seen"Bay-"Me don't want to"Bay-"Aunt Sandy you coming in a little while?"Me-"If Mommy& Aunt Seen says I can"Bay-"Me don't like a little while. Can you come right now?"Me- "No Bay,Aunt Seen said No"Bay-"Well can you come in a minute?Me-"No Bay, Aunt Seem wants to take you to a party"Bay-"Me don't want to party. "I want you."Me-"Maybe next weekend"Bay-"Okay, just come in the morning"Me-"We will have to see what Mommy says"Bay-I can say my name now B-A-I-L-E-Y(She spelled it!)Me-"Yay!! You are sooo smart"Bay-"I know!" Bay-I can say my ABC's too...

Me don't like parties."Me-"Bailey do you know how much I love you?"Bay-"yes"...Bay- Bigger than the sky"...She is sooooooo right!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I couldn't wait for the day that she learned to talk. Then I couldn't wait until she could talk on the phone.It just blesses my heart to hear that precious little voice.How did we ever get so blessed to have such a precious little girl in our lives?Who would have ever thought one little foster child could make such a huge impact on so many lives. She for sure changed mine. She's my angel baby and will always be.

What a wonderful weekend it has been.

I had a wonderful weekend!!! On Friday, I had a girl's night out. It was great getting out. Hubby stayed home and kept the baby & Jacob so I could have a little free time. I love spending time with my friends & my dear daughters.
On Saturday, I took my very first senior pictures. I am really excited about that. I hope that Maria likes them as much as I enjoyed taking them.
After that, we went to dinner with friends. If you remember a while back on my blog,I mentioned a baby that was offered to us for adoption ,but we passed it up and connected the mom with friends of ours who haven't been able to have a baby of their own. Well, that's who we went to dinner with:) Sweet baby Addie just turned one and she is just precious. I can tell they are just crazy about their baby. She has for sure been that missing piece. It just blessed my heart to see them.
I had a wonderful Mother's Day. I woke up to a homemade breakfast that my daughter Ashley cooked me:) She even made homemade biscuits for the first time. It was sooooo good! She did a great job. What a wonderful way to start the day.
Then we went to Sunday morning service @ church and our pastor preached an awesome message on being a good mother & comparing that to the mother church. I've never heard the two compared so that was really neat.
I also got a HUGE surprise!!!! My Mom & brother Bryan decided to surprise me & come to church. Mom hasn't been able to come in a looooong time due to the problems she has had, but she was there and it just blessed my heart seeing her. I love my mom.
Also seeing my little brother was a blessing. He has recently gotten into church at a church close to where he lives and I am soooooo proud of him.
After church, I came home & spent time with my kids. I love when my kids come home.
Little Brookelyn put us on a show. She is such a precious little girl with the most amazing personality. I love that baby so much.
After they left, I decided to go spend the evening with my Nanny. We had a great time together. I took the new foster baby to see her and Nanny just had a fit over her...lol Nanny loves babies/kids just like I do...I guess that's where I got it:)
It was just a weekend full of blessings:)

I love this song!!!

Way back then-May 1989(It will be 21 years this month)~~~~~~~~~It makes me think of when Brent & I started out so young
