We just got done with a tornado warning here. The boys and I hudled under the stairs. Trent was really upset and crying and kept saying "I don't want to die" I called Shannon and asked her for a scripture that I couldn't quite remember. (thanks Shannon by the way!) I read it to Trent and he didn't seem to impressed until I got too this part.......
The Lord will keep you from all harm - he will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore. Psalm 121: 7-8
After I read that he was like "does it really say that?" I showed him where it was and he just kept reading it, stopped crying and began to feel a little better about things. The Lord is good!

My sweet boy is 2!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY SWEET TOMMY!!!!!
So we woke up this morning and got around and left to get Tommy's 2 year pictures taken. I was excited about it because he has always done a wonderful job when getting his pic taken. Boy was I in for major dissapointment! He threw the mother of all fits when we tried to sit him on the sheet thingy. I have NEVER seen him act so badly. I'm sure he was just scared of a new place, but Jason or I couldn't calm him down. Finally after several attempts, I just said forget it. The lady asked if I would like to reschedule and I said "what's the point?" Then we left with no pics, and I was crying. I was so upset. I just wanted this to be a good day. I am already struggling with him being 2. After I calmed a bit and we were home, I decided to get my sheet off my bed and see if he would cooperate for me. He did. Ofcourse. So these are some pics that I took. I am going to blow them up to 8x10 to put in his frame. :)

i don't have a title
Today was the first day of bible school. I get to help with crafts. Not my first choice, but it was actually pretty fun. Most of the kids seemed to pay attention and do what they are supposed to, but there is always a few who don't know how to follow directions.
The bathroom is coming along. Kind of. Well, it's basically as good as it's going to get. We repainted with a lighter color, and it's still really really bright. But, it's going to have to do. I am not buying a 3rd paint color right now. I am just not going to. I think once I get the shower curtain back up and we get a new medicine cabinet to kind of cover up some of the yellow, it will look better.
Trent started karate tonight. Jane D. suggested it to me when I was talking about wanting to find something for Trent to do this summer. All of her boys, and her, are in it and really like it. Tonight was the start of a new session, so I talked to him about it and he thought that it sounded like something he would like. I did inform him that this is NOT an excuse to fight people and that it's not to be used outside of class, unless he is being attacked by a stranger. I really liked that the very first thing they talked about was respect, for their parents and each other. They get homework every week. This week it was to alway put your shoes where they go. I thought that was cute. He gets his uniform next week. He is going to look so cute! :D
