a baby is heaven's sweetest blessing, a gift, a miracle, and a keepsake of God's love

... so fresh from God ...

It is not a slight thing when they who are so fresh from God, love us. - Charles Dickens 1812 - 1870

Wonderful are Thy Works!

For thou didst form my inward parts, thou didst knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise thee, for thou art fearful and wonderful. Wonderful are thy works!
Thou knowest me right well; my frame was not hidden from thee, when I was being made in secret, intricately wrought in the depths of the earth. Thou eyes beheld my unformed substance; in thy book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.
How precious to me are thy thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! If I would count them, they are more than the sand. When I awake, I am still with thee.
Psalm 139: 13-18 Holy Bible

Andrea's Very First Pre-Ballet Class 2009


Our little girl danced! Andrea had her very first pre-ballet class at Ithaca Ballet. She will be learning basic barre exercises and simple steps. We have taken her to dance classes at different ages, but she was too shy to dance and only wanted to watch. Andrea dances all the time at home and dreams of being a ballerina. So proud her and love her so. :)

Soccer 2009




Jacob, Andrea, and Luke are playing soccer this season. Jacob plays on the big field. This is Andrea and Luke's very first sport to play. Fun watching them practice and play. Luke is only 4 .. he is so serious when he plays. Very sweet.

Back to School 2009


All 4 of my kids are in school this year. It is not easy for me to part with my youngest, Luke. Bobby is in 10th grade .. Jacob is in 5th grade .. Andrea is in 1st grade .. and Luke is in UPK. The older kids started last Wednesday and Luke on Thursday. Luke wanted to ride the school bus with his older brothers and sister on his first day of school. Luke was crying at school quite a bit on his first day. Hopefully he will be having fun soon. My older kids are very excited to be back in school and see their friends. I think it will be a great school year.

Happy Birthday to my Mom!


Happy Birthday Mom!! You are the best Mom and best Grandma there could ever be. I miss you so much!! Wish we lived closer to each other. My Mom makes the very best homemade coffee cake. I will always remember the scent of the cinnamon throughout the entire house from her coffee cake baking. I use this recipe now so my kids can have this same memory about me as I do about my lovely lovely Mom. I love you Mom!!!

Happy 16th Birthday Bobby!


Happy 16th Birthday to my oldest son Bobby! I remember when I first saw your sweet little face and held you in my arms on the day you were born. Tears are in my eyes as I remember all of our wonderful days together - watching you grow up into such a fine character, handsome, smart, creative, and funny young man - who is my favorite to have long chats with. I am so proud of you! Love you always XOXO Mom
