The time has come....

i would love to tell everyone that will and i have been doing lots of art, reading, etc. etc. that goes along with being a great mom. however, i have to confess, he has been watching a lot of movies. and i his mother have decided to forgive myself for this.

you see i've been hovering over the great white porcelain god for the past few days, it was just an occasional visit, now it has become more like a home for me. i have gotten some wonderful medicine that kept the visits to twice today, which is a complete and utter miracle. praise the good Lord for medicine!!!

now, here are some thoughts, since i've had some time to be thinking and all.


will is quite the artist, even though our art making has been minimal the past few days. he does not like to use finger paints as they are meant for, rather, he prefers paint brushes and not his little people kind, grown up skinny paint brushes.
he paints very strategically painting small strokes and then he likes to put a large blob on the paper. he tells us amazing stories based on what he has done. for instance, "here is the gun, here is the fire, it went all the way up and out of the building, can you believe that? then the guy found the gun and killed the bad guys"
yes, we definitely have a BOY on our hands.


but, I have to say, a very very sweet boy indeed. he brought his stool up to the toilet as i was throwing up the other morning and sat by me and patted my back saying, "mom, that is grody, it's gonna be ok, you want to hold my fire car?"

the above is what will has been wearing, just to paint a clear picture of how this household has been lately, he dresses himself and i just love it. i mean, would i let him wear his pajama shirt and camo sweats with his cousins too big baseball shoes to school, probably not.
but it's really cute.


o and here is my sweet darling. what a man i have. he has been nothing but gracious to me in my state. reminding me all the way he's proud of me. he says everyday, "I'm so proud of you", which i've been thinking about a lot. It's really a great thing to hear because i feel very useless in life right now and it's just the perfect thing.

and last but definitely not least, here is baby singletary at 9 weeks.
we are so proud of this little baby growing and thriving. praise the good Lord for this life. we continue to covet prayers as this baby grows.

i have been so excited by all the new little lives that have come and that are coming soon, it's just such a wonderful time in life to see families expanding and brothers and sisters being made out of first borns. it just doesn't seem that long ago that i was starting this blog because will had just come into this world. Dan had to convince me to start it because i had no idea what a blog was. my how the times have changed in such a short period.

i leave you with this that has been making me laugh non stop. sent to me by a friend.
you have to look at his other reviews too!!!
