Slumber Party !!!


 Walker asked Lauren to sleep in his room. Which is HUGE because he never wants anyone to sleep in his room.  Trust me Ken has asked numerous times and the answer every time is NO Daddy.  I sat outside the door for a few mins and listen to all the giggling.  Warms my heart !!

Why?

Way to much illness has been too close to home lately.  Way to much stress to close to home. Way to much sadness.  I would really love some good news. I pray multi times a day , ( My mom has a sign that says, Hello God, its me again.) I am thankful God is patience, because if not he would be extremely tired of hearing from me. 

 The other day while in conversation someone told me that we shouldn't ask God why things happen? That we should  just except it and then you would be at peace with the situation.  

1) Elijah Auxier - a dear friends 11 yr old son needs a heart transplant.
2)  Friend from HS 7 yr old son died in a freak accident.
3)  Lauren has a friend from school with leukemia.

This list could go on and on. How can you help but ask why?  Yes I do believe that you have to have faith in Him that all will be OK. But how in the world could we say to any of those parents in these situations, to not ask why ? 

My prayer is for some good news very soon. I feel like I have been consumed with sadness. My heart has been so heavy for all of these families , from the stress of unemployment, and just the day to day stress of the kids. 

Toothless

Walker has lost a total of 4 teeth and they are all right in the front of his mouth. We keep calling him " Toothless" which he doesn't like much. Anyway the other day he finally lost one that was just hanging my a thread. It bleed and bleed like crazy. He was not happy to say the least. He was trying to convince me that he couldn't go to school, " with a bleeding body" . Well we got the bleeding to stop and off he went to school. But not happy at all about it. I emailed his teachers to give them a head's up. Once he arrived he was totally fine . Mrs Oliver was able to get him on video to show me proof that all was well.  You have to admit that he looks so cute with all those teeth gone.
