Eleven years ago, today, I gave birth to this beautiful baby boy . . .
Kyle Edward
It was love at first site and this child holds my heart in the palm of his hand. We have a very close and special relationship . . . probably because I pretty much held him in my arms his entire first year! :)
I love this boy with all that I am!
He grew into a very curious, very active, very caring little boy.
And despite my efforts to slow down time, he keeps growing up on me . . .getting bigger, growing smarter & more handsome!
But one thing never changes . . .
he still owns my heart!
Happy 11th Birthday, Kyle!
We ALL love you so much.
I know that I have been missing from the blog world for a while. I have been very sick for the past month, but am slowly getting better and hope to get back to updating regularly soon - although it might take me a few weeks to get back in the swing of things. :) Thanks so much for your thoughts, prayers & concern over the past month - it is greatly appreciated!
Ending with a scripture . . .
"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart."
Jeremiah 1:4-5
So very thankful for the gift of KYLE!

Always lifting up prayers!
Romans 5:1-5 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; And patience, experience; and experience, hope: And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

Glad to see you hear, I was almost about to start emailing other bloggers who know you to find out if you were ok! Hope you're better soon!
Praying that the Lord will always be with you no matter what the future holds.
Isaiah 43:1-3a But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour...

Belated Happy Birthday to Kyle! They definitely grow up too fast. My oldest got engaged on Kyle's birthday. Of course, it was his fiance's birthday too.
If you get a chance, drop by and see what I am up to.

Praying right now!
Psalms 23:1-3 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Gracious; I missed this update when it came up and just realized, in looking through my blogroll, that I hadn't seen an update from you in a while. I hope you're on the mend; when YOU say you've been very sick, I get worried. And then I wonder; "was it Jillian and that darn 30 day Shred? Cause it's nearly killed ME when I've done it!". Seriously, I hope you're doing OK..
Hi Heather,
Sorry to read you had been quite sick. We all miss your updates and most of all, we want you feeling 100%. Hurry and get better.
Wishing you an early "Happy Mother's Day". You're one of the most inspiring young mother's I've had the privilege of following.
Take care and hugs to your adorable family,
Joan from Montreal, Quebec Canada
These verses are so comforting. Continuing to pray!!!!!!!!!
Revelation 21:1-4 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

Happy Mother's Day, Heather!
Know tomorrow's going to be bittersweet!
Continuing to lift up prayers!
Psalms 91:14-15 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

Heather,
Hope all is well with you. Miss your blogs. You are in my prayers.
Hi Heather :O)
I'm missing your updates, but haven't updated my own blog in just as long!!! Hope everything is going well for you and the family. I always think of you around this time of year because our oldest "babies" share the same birthday a year apart.
((((((((hugs)))))))))
Missing your inspiring blog posts....I am praying that you are feeling well. I hope Kyle had a wonderful birthday, and that you come back to say "hi" to all of us lurkers/readers soon.
Hugs from WI.
