Kya gave herself a haircut!

I know that most mothers dread the day that their daughter decides to give themselves a hair cut. One of Kya's classmates cut her hair short in a cute bob this week. So Kya decided she wants short hair too. I think she realized that she had made a mistake with her first snip cause she came right down stairs crying to me telling me that she couldn't go to school or church anymore because people would laugh at her. Luckily, her hair is so curly that you can hardly notice. It just doesn't go in the ponytail like it use to. It could have been worse and best of all, I don't think she will try this again.

When people ask what are your talents....



I always find myself stumped on that question. I know what I enjoy (children, talking, dancing) but are they really talents? So I just spent the day refinishing some old furniture and I realize that I have a talent there! Silly as it seems that I would find that exciting but as most of you know my dad was very talented at things like this so I like to think that I got it from him. I also have found it a way to make some extra cash. Last summer I made over $1000 on getting nasty old furniture and making it nice. I bought this dresser for $5 and with a little paint and new hardware I sold it for $200 and the headboard I bought $1 and sold it for $20. GOOD TIMES!

Happy Birthday Dez!

Today Dezmon turned 16. I never knew unconditional love until I became pregnant with him. He has been a blessing to me in so many ways. Although I could do without the teenage years ;) He is growing into the man he is supposed to be. I am proud to be his mother and thank the Lord that he sent him to me. Happy Birthday Dezmon!!!

Happy Birthday Summer!

It is hard to believe that the baby of us all is now 26! And not just that.... the baby is having a baby! I love my sister Summer so much! She is a great help to me in my life! She is talented at many things.... photography, skateboarding, great with kids (just to name a few). She loves motorcycles and animals. I am happy to say that she has met her match with her husband Jesse. I just realized that this is starting to sound like an obituary. Love you Summer! Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Melanie

I am not sure how this happened but Melanie is now 35! We were just kids yesterday!?! She is one of my sweetest sisters and doesn't have a mean bone in her body. I love her so much and am so grateful that we came into this world at almost the same time. She is the closest thing I have to a twin. I know I am not far behind her so I will not give her a hard time on her age =) HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEL!
