Anyway

People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centerted; Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, People may accuse you of selfish,ulterior motives; Be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway. What you could spend years building, someone could destory overnight; Build anyway. If you find Serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tommorrow; Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you've got anyway. You see, in the final analysis. it is between you and your higher power; it is never between you and them ANYWAY.

Just think.....

You're here not by chance,
but by God's choosing.
His hand formed you
and made you
the person you are.
He compares you to no one else--
you are one of a kind.
You are lack nothing
that His grace can't give you.
He has allowed you to be here
at this time in history
to fulfill His special purpose
for this generation.

TAKE A MOMENT TO REMEMBER HOW SPECIAL YOU ARE AND HOW LUCKY THE WORLD IS TO HAVE YOU IN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dance as if no one
is watching,

Sing as if no one
were listening,

And live everyday
as if it were your LAST.

just takin' pictures...

Can you believe that it is almost Thanksgiving?! Crazy...time is just slipping by again. But I guess that is just how life goes sometimes right?! School has been going great for both kiddos. Lanta has just taken wings and exploded in the reading and writing world..it's cute. The world is hers to explore or something like that she told me the other day..she will try to read anything and I mean anything..It's super cute if I do say so myself...even August is proud that he can write his letter "A" in his name...he brings me papers all the time with a's all over them and says look it has my name allllll over it....funny guy. Hope your days are full of gingerbread and molasses cookies if not come visit me :)

:D
I'm on my way...gimmie about 2 and a half days...i'll be there! ;0)

Those are some cute pics of the kids.

I love this age for our boys right now. Eli is sooooo infatuated with making happy faces with bodies all over papers. He calls them his "friends".
He can write his name and i love that he is excited to do it. I'm sure it's the same excitement that August has...LOOK, my name is there!

My girls are getting the reading thing down. They, too, like to read whatever they can. It's neat to see their little brains working.

Now writing, on the other hand, isn't going as well for them. They try to write and spell things, but it's a bit difficult for them.

I am really starting to see some of the effects of the prematurity now. They struggle alot in school. I can see that there are some concepts they just don't "get".

We are looking into getting some tutoring for them. The help they need is beyond what i can offer as a mama. (sigh) The joys of having super preemies...
