So we did it......we let the kids celebrate Halloween. I was at WalMart the other day and saw the cutest little pirate outfit and if you knew my daughter then you would realize what a completely perfect fit that would be so I couldn't resist and had to get it. I have struggled with Halloween for several years now, ever since I became a Christian and I never quite know what to do about it. I want my kids to have the same fun experiences I had as a kid yet I also want them to know that there are some things people just don't do, its just not negotiable...like witchcraft and things of that nature.....
Anyway here is a picture of our little Jadynn Sparrow!! Hope everyone has a happy and safe Halloween or Fall Festival....whichever you celebrate!

What Do You Want to Be When You Grow Up?

Ever wonder why someone came up with the question "What do you want to be when you grow up?" I have lost count the number of times I have been asked that question. Its interesting that as kids we dreamed big and believed in our dreams. I don't think I have ever heard someone answer that question saying I want to work in a call center. I had big plans and dreams when I was a kid, then reality of the working world struck. Then the dreams came back when I was in college earning my oh so important associates degree. I was so sure that would take me far. Even now when I think about what I want to be, I have a never ending well of ideas and plans but nothing ever takes shape. Instead I go to work hoping to make ends meet each payday and wishing I didn't dislike my job as much as I do. Oh well, I must be patient because in the end I know it will work out beyond my wildest dreams. Although some mornings I get up wishing I had taken the safe route and gotten my teac...

Part 2

It wasn't fair, why did Lucy have to have such a gorgeous brother. He was about 5'9" with jet black hair and eyes the color of chocolate. He had the kind of body that just begged to be looked at, and that wrangler butt was an entity all its own. How was he going to show Lucy and her that they could be good for each other? It wasn't Tess's fault Lucy had woke up late and missed the auction, but Lucy could hold a serious grudge when she convinced herself that she had been wronged. Instead of being mad at Tess for getting a horse of a lifetime, she should be glad that he is still within her circle. She should become friends with Tess, after all they seem to be a lot alike. They both turn heads, Lucy with her black hair and green eyes, and Tess with her red hair and striking sky blue eyes. Not to mention they are both a couple of spitfires, more then an average man can handle. His momma was the same way though, so his daddy raised him to know how to handle wo...

Why?

I sometimes wonder why God created fat people. I have struggled with my weight all my life and know of lots of people that have too. What advantages are there to it? You have to pay more money for bigger clothes that are harder to find and don't necessarily look like what everyone else is wearing. You can't sit comfortably in movie theaters, amusement rides(some rides you can't even get on), airplanes, etc, etc. Probably the most annoying thing about it is the teenagers and young people that feel it is their job to point out how gross you are compared to the general public and they do it in a loud obnoxious way so as to draw attention to themselves. Most days I can feel pretty good about myself when I look in the mirror. I can say I am kind, good hearted, intelligent, funny, and do anything for those I love. But somedays I sit and daydream of the things I could accomplish if only I were thin. I don't even have to be super thin like the models....I would be happ...
