The Father's Hand

nitwit1 — Fri, 16 May 2008 21:44:00 -0500

I was looking through a few of our Second First Trip pictures tonight and I came across these of Neil's hands and Coby's. I thought of how beautiful they were and how they made me stop and think of God's hands holding ours. Our Heavenly Father with His righteous right hand holding our hand and helping us in our struggles.

Mother of 17 is Pregnant Again!

nitwit1 — Fri, 16 May 2008 06:00:00 -0500

I am so happy to be helping Mrs. Fussypants while she is delivering her angels! But I have a bit of "baby on the brain" since I am thinking about her delivery. I give you a bit of news about Michelle Duggar, mom of 17 and star of a TV series about her family on Discovery Health Channel.

…and then I whined some more. Yay!

Why yes, you must continue to put up with me pondering Busy Girl's 8th grade graduation for another week or so.

In the midst of handing out money right and left during this graduation season and driving her from place, to place, to place, to place, the significance of the whole thing is dawning on me.

Jason Castro and Daughtry...fourth place is O.K.!

O.K. I promise this is my last post about Jason Castro. Until he escapes from the American Idol web...

Give That Baby A Bubba!

One thing I've never understood is why pediatricians want babies off the bottle at 12 months.

I'm usually a rule follower. Just try to convince me it's OK to give a child just a bit more in that medicine dropper than the 4 ml dose I was instructed to dispense and you will see immediate concern in my face. 4 ml means 4 ml. Not 4.5 ml.

Label, label, who's got a label?

I keeping seeing labels. They're everywhere... peeking out at me from around the corner... tip-toing up behind me to tap me on the shoulder... snuggled in my closet... hiding under the bed... leaping off of buildings and into my car...

Dear Miss C:

I need to find something I don’t care about so I can forcefully break it in lots of pieces.

I just spent several hours working on my PSBN post - the one I was planning on publishing at midnight. It was almost done. I opened a new window and started working on a very emotional draft of a post about the rollercoaster of my feelings since experiencing a miscarriage.

Dear Hubs,

American Idol Final 3 (and a little Jason Castro)

nitwit1 — Wed, 14 May 2008 08:44:07 -0500

For someone who never watched a reality show until this season, I can't believe I keep posting about American Idol. J and I watched tonight's show, and I must say I was missing my boy Jason. Not that I think he should have been there, I just liked watching him sing.

My gosh, I had no idea that 7 and 8 year olds dealt with the kinds of issues that my daughter has been coming home with as of late!

The situation is such that her little 8-year-old boyfriend, who is in her class, has the wrong idea of what it means to be a “girlfriend”…

Fussy's Babysitter's Club

Ack! Tonight is the night. I'm so nervous that I feel a bit dizzy. Sure, I've done this four times before, but still.....ugh...labor, IVs, epidurals. No, I never get used to it.
