Gardens..

I went with my good friend Laura on Saturday to our local gardens to take some Easter pictures of the kids. I don't have time to post them all, but these are just two that I'd had the time to edit. I just love the one of me and Melain. Isn't she so pretty? I sure am glad she likes her Godmother! She turned 18 months old on Easter Sunday.

All in His hands...

Did anyone happen to catch this story today?

Well, its a good thing I didn't read it before talking to my friend Maggie on Sunday. She sent me a text while I was at home, and it said "did you see my status on Facebook today?" I knew she had gone to Florida for her uncles funeral Thursday through Sunday. I wrote back that I didn't have internet, but I had seen where she wrote "thank God we made it home safely" when I was at my parents' house earlier doing laundry and having Easter lunch. She texted back that it was too much to type, but that basically their pilot died and her dad had to land the plane. They were flying on their 8 passenger plane and her dad has his pilot's license, but not for a plane that big.

Anyway, thank God they made it home safely. When she texted me that her dad had to land it, I wrote back "YOUR DAD?" and she replied with "well, both. dad and God."

How true that is.

Audrey Caroline

Please join me in remembering sweet Audrey today. She would have been a year old.

Clay Steven

My cousin sent pictures of Clay to us. He looks just like his sister, and is adorable!

We haven't gotten word yet on when he's having surgery, but I wanted to post these pictures.

Baby Clay

My cousin Clay and his wife Emily just had their second baby this morning, by c-section. His name is Clay Steven Chandler, and he weighed in at 7lbs 13oz and has curly blonde hair.

He appeared fine at birth, we all received an email that he was here. About 2 hours later we got another email saying that he had some heart issues, and would be undergoing surgery in the next few days. Apparently, the arteries going to and from his heart are backwards, so his lungs are getting oxygenated blood, and his body is getting unoxygenated blood.

According to my other cousin, Clay's aunt, as long as he's stable, they will wait a day or so before surgery. That's the last I heard.

Please keep this little guy in your prayers! Here' s a picture of their little girl, Lilly. She's 2 and is a pistol! I don't have any pictures of the baby yet.

Don't have any good pictures of Clay and Emily, but I stole this from my cousins Facebook page!
