Just some quick random thoughts today bullet point style:

  • God is good!
  • Life is crazy!
  • I have no idea where the last few months have gone…oh wait…yes I do 🙂 Wedding planning, Christmas, wedding planning, kids, kids and more kids, homeschooling Ava, getting households ready to merge, wedding planning, going on dates with my man, wedding planning, working on re-designing my blog (should be coming soon!), aaaaaaand…wedding planning 🙂
  • My baby girl Ava turns 6…yes SIX…this week! I’m so thankful for God bringing her into my life for the past six years. She is such a blessing!
  • So…I’m not sure I mentioned this already, but wedding planning is in full swing and the big day is coming up super fast! So fast that I haven’t had a moment to put any details on here. If you would like more information shoot me an e-mail in the next couple days and I’ll hook you up 🙂 (DnJrankin@gmail.com)
  • God continues to be exactly who He says He is…faithful, loving, merciful, and full of grace. I’m so thankful for His leading in my life and I’m so excited for the plans He has for all of us in the future!
  • I have a serious addiction to Skittles right now.
  • I love spring and all the spring flowers and I love that it’s come early in my neck of the woods! Just an unexpected blessing 🙂

That’s it for now!

Lincoln-isms #2

/ heartmomma / 3 Comments

I know it’s been FOREVER since I posted.  The holidays were crazy around here and life is just crazy…but so good!  I have sooooo much I would love to write about so before my brain explodes I will hopefully get back into my blogging groove.  Until then, I’ll leave you with some things Mr. Linc has been saying lately that, as his Mom, I think are worth remembering and sharing.  Enjoy 🙂

  • “Bye Mom.  We’re going to a man place.”
  • “I not a baby…I a BIG man!”
  • “I love cats, and elephants, and my Mom…and tigers!”
  • “You are nice and cozy!”
  • “I hiding from you…cause I’m pooping.”  (yes I realize that this may be a sign that he’s ready for potty-training.  Yay me.)
  • “I can’t get in my bed because there’s lots of spiders in my bed and they will crawl on me…so I will just wait to get in bed until you come and squish them.”  (that’s one of the more creative excuses I’ve heard to not go to bed.)
  • “Hmmmm…let’s think about me for a minute.”
  • “Alright Captain Hook!”  (I’m not sure where he got this but it cracks me up when he says it to me)
  • While rocking him one night he said, “When I a big man, I’ll hold you Mom.”
  • Me: “Hey Linc, do you know where my tape is?”  Linc:  “Maybe a spider ate it or somethin.”
  • “Thank You God for movie.  And thank You for supper.  And thank You for train track.”
  • “That’s what boys do…we make messes and play with toys…and everyting (typo intended).  And we take baths.”
  • We were talking about his allergies in the car one day and Linc said, “I’m not allergic to you Mom!”  (no my sweet boy, you’re not)
  • Me:  “What are you doing Lincoln?”  Linc:  “I’m just throwing things in the fire.  Just for fun.”  (oh boy.)
