I get this!

I heard a song today on KLOVE. It is Sara Groves' song called "Toy Packaging". I understand and lived this on Saturday at the girls' Mexican Fiesta!

"And he waved goodbye, saying don't you cry..."

..."I'll be back again someday". ~Frosty the Snowman

I woke up with Manolito at 5:45, and just couldn't go back to sleep. So, I decided have some quiet time, then downstairs to catch up on some of my favorite blogs. Then about 7:40, I was startled by a "MOM!...MOM!" Looking to the top of the stairs I find the sleepy Molly Kat. Dressed in her two pairs of pajamas and hand me down Princess slippers that she insisted on wearing to bed last night. Tears were involved, but I won't go there. Back to story. Molly then said with desperation in her voice, "Our snowman melted, he's gone! Okay, Mommy to the rescue! I had to get my camera! (Yes, I did console her, but what a cute moment to capture). So, she was only upset for a brief moment, then it was on to her play kitchen to pretend to be a server (Miss Connie) at her favortie breakfast nook, "Edge of Town" in El Dorado.
Better finish my cup of coffee from "Miss Connie"

"Snow" much fun

M*cinex by day, and Al*a Se*tzer by night... Plop-Plop, Fizz-Fizz. That has been my prescription. Although I have been a bit under the weather since Sunday, I couldn't resist helping Dad get the girls out in the powder! Our Nana has also been out of comission for over a week now. Looks like things are on the up swing for her. Praying for health for the weekend, for Christmas, and for all of you!

Labor of Love

I wish I had something profound and inspiring to say about this video, but it pretty much just left me speechless, and even more in love with Jesus...
Thank you Kara for finding this, and the lyrics.

It was not a silent night
There was blood on the ground
You could hear a woman cry
In the alleyway that night
On the streets of David's town

And the stable was not clean
And the cobblestones were cold
And little Mary full of grace
With the tears upon her face
Had no mother's hand to hold

It was a labor of pain
It was a cold sky above
But for the girl on the ground in the dark
With every beat of her beautiful heart
It was a labor of love

Noble Joseph by her side
Callused hands and weary eyes
There were no midwives to be found
In the streets of David's town
In the middle of the night

So he held her and he prayed
Shafts of moonlight on his face
But the baby in her womb
He was the maker of the moon
He was the Author of the faith
That could make the mountains move

It was a labor of pain
It was a cold sky above
But for the girl on the ground in the dark
With every beat of her beautiful heart
It was a labor of love
For little Mary full of grace
With the tears upon her face
It was a labor of love

Thank you Aunt "Lucy"

We mean Aunt Mary Lee! Thank you so much for my stocking cap... Mommy is having trouble catching up on all the "thank-you" notes she has to write, so here is yours!
It is SOOO soft, and I don't even try to take it off. My ears and fuzzy head thank you too!

Love,
Lizzie Lou

Little Mommy Molly

Molly Kathryn tells me the other night while feeding her sister Macy...
"This is what I will do when I am a Mommy!" She will be a great one, I know it!

Happy Birthday Big Brother!

&D,

I am blogging this tonight since I am not sure what my schedule will allow tomorrow! I love you even though you traumatized me with Michael Jackson's "Thriller", always blamed me for fingerprints on your sunglasses, and would sing "leaving on a jet plane" and tell me you were never coming "back again". I guess you are also the guy who would read me Poe's "The Raven", bought me my one and only pair of Doc Martens, taught me to appreciate some really good music, took me to a Jimmy Buffett concert, and created math programs for me on your computer, and so many other things!

Happy Birthday Alan Andrew! I am so proud to be your lil' sis!

Love and Birthday Blessings to my Oakley wearin', Dead Head, Parrot Head, VW Drivin', Marathon Runnin', Tireswingn', Wood workin' Big Brother...

Here is Molly doing some advertsing for Andy's web tools...

Thank you Kara!

Kara, my Forever 31 cell group diva, and new blogger buddy! Now to tell you what you have won for helping me solve my comment problem!

How about some Peppermint Mocha????? Once I find some and buy TWENTY (I love peppermint) I will but an extra for you! Thanks friend... Will be praying that all the catering events at church are a success.

Comments?

Does anyone know why my comments did not appear with the last entry? Help!
Today has been pretty fun! Macy got another flu vaccination (I guess not really fun for her), and Molly went to her first Music and Me class. She has taken an interest in music, and has quite an ear. Today we were listening to her Christmas CD during breakfast, and she heard a slide whistle in the song "Frosty the Snowman", and asked what made that particular sound! *Reminder to me to show her what one looks like* I typically find her singing to her babies, or even making up her own songs. Macy enjoyed the class and even left Mom to venture out and meet new kids! She even went and sat on another mom's lap, what's that about!
