i don't understand why people think it's ok to harm helpless babies and children.

J is for.....



Juicy........bet you thought I was going to say Jesus, huh?



When I visit the post office ( and it has been a while) I look forward to seeing Ms Mary and her smiling face. She is precious and she loves my boys. When W was a baby baby, she would come out to the van and say Ohhhhh he's so Juicy! I wish I had an audio of it. I got the biggest kick out of it. I'm assuming she was referring to his fat legs and healthiness-is that a word? Like sweet baby girl sporting the rain boots below. I need to take N to see her. I feel bad that I didn't early on. I was going so much then because I was selling KE's clothes on Ebay. I think I may get back to selling.




Here are pics of my juicy babies...........




KE with her doll, Edy. Edy is now in her hope chest as of this year.



W lovin music at an early age

sweet N posing that Kenny Chesney smile

WOW

I have almost hit the 3000 visits mark since March the 1st. That is unreal to me in my little world. ( and that is not my visits either because I made sure it didn't count when I check my page :)
There must be some folks stalking my blog and not introducing themselves. I know my friends love me and all. Show some love and leave a comment!

I is for........



Intimidation : intentional behavior "which would cause a person of ordinary sensibilities" fear of injury or harm. (wikipedia)



Certain people or situations may intimidate us. The core of this is fear.
As I continue to study the book of Isaiah, I learn more and more what it means to fear the Lord and nothing else.

Do not fear anything except the Lord Almighty. He alone is the Holy One. If you fear Him, You need fear nothing else. He will keep you safe. Isaiah 8:13-14

These words are very comforting . Why should we be intimidated by anything when we have the assurance of the Lords protection?
If we seek out the Lord's help in life's intimidating situations, He will be there. As scary as it may seem while you are in the moment, I can assure you this is true. Well, for one, the Bible tells me so!

The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.
Those who know your name will trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you. Psalm 9:9-10
