It has been been along time!
I just wanted to share a poem that I have recently really enjoyed!

1. The Road Not Taken

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth; 5

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same, 10

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back. 15

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
-Robert Frost-

I hope you enjoy this poem as much as I have!
Anyways, enough for now!

Sad.......

2008-10-09T08:25:00.000-07:00

There is this girl in my class and from the first time I ever met her I thought she seemed very sencere. Well, the other day while I was coming out of class she was sitting on the sidewalk smoking! This girl and I have a lot in common; we both have eight sibblings, have been home schooled, and we are the same age. It just really saddened me that she is ruining her life for a "little puff" or to look "cool"! I have saw people in my family die because of this and I do not like seeing people my age or anyone else for that matter with this habit! It is not so "cool" when you cannot breath (you wish you could get a puff of air) and you are coughing your lungs up! Please remember that I care about you and NEVER start this habit!

Enough for now I will plan to be back soon!

To My Friends................ You Know Who You Are..

2008-10-08T13:36:00.000-07:00

Thanks for being my friends!
I will not list names I do not want to forget anyone!
I Love you all!

Have I ever?

2008-10-07T12:27:00.000-07:00

No I havent.!

Today is my day that I go to college. I have to be there at 7:45 am so that means I have to arise early! For this particular day after I stayed up really late last night/morning finishing up my homework. I get to class after having a little over four hours of sleep to find that my teacher is sick and that class has been cancled. O my what a bumer I could have stayed home and slept.

On another note.

Today was also my senior meeting so that means a trip into town. While we were in town we decided to get something to eat so we went into a fast food restraunt, ordered our food, and sat down and started eating.
This is when we realized that the lady(ies) beside us were not going to be quite for nothing. We were there for 30-45 min. I do not recall a time that they stopped talking for the whole time we were there. I have to admit that I was laughing so hard at these poor lady(ies). I should be ashamed but I am not. So, we finally managed to make it through the meal without being very disruptive with our laughter. When we got up to leave this poor lady sitting on the other side of the VERY talkative ladies looked up at me and said, "I am starting to get scared". At this point my laughter could not be held in it just came out rather I liked it or not! After we had gotten into the van to leave one of my younger siblings had to go to the restroom so I went back in to take the child to the restroom and they were still talking!!! While exiting the restraunt for the second time I over heard these ladies exchanging names for the first time!!!!! O my they did not even know one another!

Anyways this may seem like a LONG post but it is nothing compared to the talkative ladies I experienced.
Hope you get as much laughter as I did from this!

Happy Birthday!

2008-10-01T09:49:00.000-07:00

Anthony

2007-11-19T18:40:00.000-08:00

If you have noticed I talk about him a lot it is because he came at just the right time for me I was going through something not so fun at the time!
Below is another quite funny conversation. Enjoy!

A Conversation between Mom and Anthony.

Anthony: (walks into the kitchen) Mom I need some new legs!
Mom: Why do you need new legs?
Anthony: Because these hurt!
Mom: Well I'm sorry!
Anthony: Could you buy me some?
Mom: I don't know where to buy legs
Anthony: (Walked away)

I thought this was so funny, cute, and a little sad because his legs were hurting:(.
Anyways I guess that is enough of my rambles for now! I hope you enjoy!

Anthony

2007-11-15T19:20:00.000-08:00

Today Anthony and Skyler had an appointment. At the appointment they had to get their little fingers poked :-(. Anthony was standing there waiting his turn watching all of the other little children getting their fingers poked and when they called on him he looked up and at Mom and said will you just hold my hand? so when he got on the table he held his little finger out and did not even whimper(Mom held his hand)! I was at work and I called and checked on Mom because I knew that she had the little ones out all by herself and she told me that and I just almost cried! It just touched me! Anyways if you can't tell I LOVE children! Enough of my rambles I will try to post again! I am trying to post more instead of looking you alls blog and wandering why you don't update! I know why it takes time and effort to think of what you are going to say!

So here is what my title is all about.

Last night we had put the kids to bed and the two babies were talking while in bed and this is what they had to say.

Skyler: Benanna (that is what she calls Brieanna) you be the mom ok?
No answer from Brieanna.
Skyler:(talking to Brieanna) hey mom, hey mom, hey mom answer me!!
No answer from Brieanna.
Skyler: Benanna are you dead?
** o my that was so funny you may not think so but you should have heard them!**
and yet another conversation....
Skyler: Hey Anthony don't go to sleep ok?
Anthony: Yes Skyla (that is what he calls Skyler) I am sleepy I can not keep my eyes open.
Skyler: No Anthony sit up don't lay down and go to sleep read a book!
Anthony: No Skyla I am sleepy!
after that they went to sleep. hopefully you all enjoyed that as much as I did! It was very funny sitting on the couch listening to them carrying on that conversation!

Todays Bible Verse

2006-10-26T14:07:00.000-07:00

· Hebrews 4:1

LET us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.

I got good out of this scripture and thought I would post it for you so that you maybe could get good out of it.

You should go read the rest of Hebrews 4.

9/11/01 Marks Five Years

2006-09-11T07:59:00.000-07:00

On this day 9/11/06 is so different from 9/11/01
When thousands of people died many loved ones,
fire fighters, and many, many more.
May we never forget this day and may we always
Thank God
For the freedom that we have.

Oh, what a night mare it must have been
to stand back and watch this happen with
shouting, crying, and people jumping from windows
and much, much more.

Life is but a vapor.
There is only one life it will soon be past
only what is done for Christ will last.

I just thought I would contribute my post to the
terriost attacks on America 9/11/01
and remind you how blessed we are to live in a
Country with freedom. Because in many other countrys things
get blown up every day.
Have you forgotton?

I hear people saying we don't need this war
I say there's some things worth fighting for
What about our freedom and this piece of ground?
We didn't get to keep 'em by backing down
They say we don't realize the mess we're getting in
Before you start preaching
Let me ask you this my friend

CHORUS 1
Have you forgotten how it felt that day
To see your homeland under fire
And her people blown away?
Have you forgotten when those towers fell?
We had neighbors still inside
Going through a living hell
And you say we shouldn't worry 'bout Bin Laden
Have you forgotten?

They took all the footage off my T.V.
Said it's too disturbing for you and me
It'll just breed anger that's what the experts say
If it was up to me I'd show it every day
Some say this country's just out looking for a fight
After 9/11 man I'd have to say that's right

CHORUS 1
Have you forgotten how it felt that day
To see your homeland under fire
And her people blown away?
Have you forgotten when those towers fell?
We had neighbors still inside
Going through a living hell
And we vowed to get the ones behind Bin Laden
Have you forgotten?

I've been there with the soldiers
Who've gone away to war
And you can bet that they remember
Just what they're fighting for

CHORUS 2
Have you forgotten all the people killed?
Yes, some went down like heroes in that Pennsylvania field
Have you forgotten about our Pentagon?
All the loved ones that we lost
And those left to carry on
Don't you tell me not to worry 'bout Bin Laden
Have you forgotten?

Have you forgotten?
Have you forgotten?

Author Unknown

no I did not make this pic.

Busy......

2006-08-04T10:50:00.000-07:00

Sorry it has been a while since my last post but I have pretty busy.

So yesterday my sister and I went grocery shopping for my mom and we had not really bought groceries in like almost a month, not a good idea yeah, so Val and I were walking through the grocery store with stuff like trying to fall out of the grocery cart RRRRRRR. You should have saw how the people looked at us with all that stuff. Anyways I seems as though I am mumbling so I going to go.

Encouragement

2006-07-28T13:43:00.000-07:00

For we must all appear before the judgement seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men;
2 Corinthians 5:10-11a

There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a to escape, that ye may able to bear it.
1 Corinthians 10:13

Yes, we will be faced with battles and trials in this life but that is what will make us stronger and be able to receive the good come the judgement, but we should remember what 1 Corinthians 10:13 says and that God will not suffer you to be tempted above that we are able, and that when we are faced with temptions he will make a way of escape that we will be able to bear it. Hope this is as encourageing to you, as it was for me.

Well Done

2006-07-27T10:42:00.000-07:00

Often times I believe that people forget what the purpose is of them living in this time world, so a while back I wrote this poem and decided to post it. Please pay attention to it. Thank You!

One Day Christ Will Come Back Again
To Get Those Who Have Lived For Him
Will You Be Ready For That Day
What Will He Say
Well Done My Good And Faithful Servant
Or Depart From Me I Never Knew You
If You Hear Well Done On That Day
All The Battles And Trials Of Life
Will Repay
What A Dreadful Thing To Hear Him Say
Depart From Me
Then You Will Be Slain
In Hell For All
Eternity
Please Take Heed
And
Listen To Him
For All Direction
So On That
Day You
Will Hear Him
Say
Well Done
My Good And Faithful Servant

Pay attention to the good that comes when you take direction from God you get to hear him say well done and then all the battles and trials will repay.

2006-07-26T12:33:00.000-07:00

Well I'm back I don't have much to say but I would like to wish Laura Lu a Very Happy Birthday!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LAURA LU!

Skyler

2006-07-25T10:20:00.000-07:00

Wow it has been a while since my last post. I have been really busy Skyler had heart sugery, and I have practically been a mommy for about a week. I really appracite you mommy's alot more now being a mommy is heard work. So back to Skyler she is doing great she came home yesterday and she only has a six week recovery time which is great for a 2yr. old child that just had heart sugery. O yeah I do think God has really helped Skyler with her sugery because there was a little boy that had the same heart sugery the day before Skyler and he had not even got out of intensive care as of Sunday and Skyler was coming home on Monday. Thank The Lord!!!!!!!! Well I fell like I am just rambling so I gonna go.
