Gratitude Friday...

First, shout out to Blogger for both shutting down blogger for two days and for finally fixing it.

Although, I lost the comments. And I didn't get to read them. I SAW there were three, which is awesomeness since I've been posting and hearing crickets chirping lately, but I never got to read them.

Soooo...if you commented on Lulu and Rita, could you be a dear and re-comment for me?

It would do me good.

Next, I feel the need to share that I have now successfully made my first ever (and possibly my last) ribbon topiary. I saw one on Etsy and like most new craft projects I find, felt the need to create one immediately. Two days and more money than I've spent in three months on ribbons later, the topiary is complete.


It will be a diaper cake topper. The recipient is a classy gal so it will be perfect for her and her little girl.

In addition, I have completed some presents for our newest infertile miracle baby! Tabitha welcomed a beautiful baby GIRL on May 3rd! Scarlett Grace! Not gonna lie, I cried with every text from her hubby updating folks on her arrival. I'm so excited to have another girl in the family

Also did some crying for another little miracle this week.

Baby Abigail

Abigail had another surgery this week and recovery is hard. Her daddy, Jody, said last week they had a growing, happy baby and this week they have a really, really sick kid again.

There are no words

So today, I held Aubrey Kate a smidge longer in my lap. I laughed a little more when she giggled. I read her books with a tad bit more enthusiasm. And told her how much I love her pretty much obsessively.

If you've got a moment, please say a prayer for Abigail. You can follow her story
HERE. I know Jody and Stephanie are grateful for your prayers.

Thank you Lord for the opportunity to pray alongside this sweet family. It is a privilege to join them at Your feet. Please heal her little body and send Your Spirit to comfort Jody, Stephanie and precious Abigail.

  1. I was just thinking about Tabitha this morning and wondering how everyone is doing! What a miracle!
    I'm thankful Rita and Lula are doing well. I was grateful for the update. I think your lifestyle is keeping them healthy.
    I will continue to pray for the little one, each day is a gift.
    Please continue to remember the tornado victims in AL. Our churches have really stepped up to be the most organized and helpful to the hurting. Just contact a church and they can put you to work.
