Really, it's Thursday

(I can't ever get pictures to post where I want them to).

Spring Break is flying by and I don't like it. I told Eddie this morning that he has to to take time off tomorrow so we can take Cash to do something. Cash has had a blast in the rain and mud and he got to see his cousins in Lumberton yesterday, so maybe it is more me that wants to do something. I want to go to either Kemah and let Cash play all of the games or go to Moody Gardens. Our original plan was to take Cash to do something the Monday after Easter and have a day just for the three of us, but a part of me feels like I want be able to walk by then. I feel fine right now because it is early morning and I haven't been moving around a whole lot, but I am exhausted and so sore by the end of the day. Luckily I go to the doctor on Monday and then every week after that. My next ultrasound is in a week and we will see how big he is and try to make a decision on when to deliver. At first I thought he might be smaller than Cash but that has all changed this week. I think he will be just as big if not bigger. The nursery is finished for the most part so at least I am not worried about that anymore.

The three year old thief

has run off with my camera again. I am pretty sure I got it back from him and hid it but apparently I hid it from myself as well. I have been working so hard in the nursery today that I have made a huge mess in our house. I am tempted to tell Eddie to rent a dumpster because there is so much in this house that needs to be thrown away. Anything that can be sent to CUIC is going on Monday and everything else I guess will go in the attic. Colt has a bed to sleep in now and plenty of clothes to wear. I had registered for a few onesies and stuff and I just took them off the registry. I am so glad I kept all of Cash's clothes but it is going to take me forever to get everything washed and separated. If I come across my camera I will post pictures of my progress.

I just love these...

Take Time To Laugh

Take Your Medicine
Today's Scripture

"A happy heart is good medicine and a cheerful mind works healing, but a broken spirit dries up the bones" (Proverbs 17:22, AMP).

Today's Word from Joel and Victoria:

So many people today live with sickness, headaches, digestive problems, lack of energy and so much more because they don't have the joy they should. They aren't sleeping well at night and are living under so much stress and pressure. But the Bible tells us that when we are happy and joyful, it's like medicine to our bodies. One of the greatest stress relievers God has given us is the gift of laughter. It not only makes you feel better, but it actually releases healing throughout your system. In fact, medical science tells us that when people laugh, it boosts their immune system. It reduces blood pressure. People who laugh regularly are 40% less likely to have a heart attack than people that don't laugh regularly. Laughter triggers the right side of the brain, which helps release creativity so we can make better decisions. Laughter activates the body's natural tranquilizers that not only help us calm down, but it helps us sleep better.If you need to rejuvenate your mind and body, it's time to take your medicine! Make time to laugh every single day. Don't take yourself so seriously. When you approach life with a happy, light-hearted attitude, you'll begin to rise higher and higher into the life of health and blessing the Lord has in store for you.

A Prayer for Today

Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of laughter. Help me to see the joy in all circumstances so I can receive Your inner healing. Show me ways to help those around me so together we can live in Your joy and strength. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
