Be Still…

Posted by Amber On August - 26 - 20101 COMMENT

I have been nearly silent on this blog for a good while now.  For a great many reasons I felt the need to just “be still”.  Mostly because in my prayers to my Heavenly Father I felt Him telling me to be quiet, be still, just wait on HIM.  So i did.  I stopped talking. [...]

Probably something most of us do in smll increments… often… maybe even say while MULTITASKING in the er… bathroom?  But me… I don’t even have time for THAT!  Most of the time when I am using the potty I find myself also, doing hair, cleaning the floor around me or completing some other task such [...]

I made this cute little banner to hang over our manger scene.  I saw it on Etsy and thought… I can make that!!!!!!!!  So I did   LOL  As it hangs in my living room it makes me smile.  I walk past it and it truly helps me to remember what it is that I [...]

Do not be anxious about anything…

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. ~ Phillipians 4:6 I have been pondering what it is that God wants me to learn from these “trials” He has allowed in our lives.  I have realized that many times when you pray for [...]

“Never a ship… sails out of the bay

“Never a ship sails out of the bay, but carries my heart as a stowaway.” ~ Sailor’s Proverb. Ross’ baby room was decorated in nautical ships and I spent my pregnancy painting a huge border with this on it.  I think it has served him well.  He is definitely a fish and although it took [...]

3 years ago today, we were pacing the floors at Central Baptist.  Right now, it is 10:16 am.  We are very lucky to have the ability to document our lives through the eyes of a camera… and those of our friends.  This is the image that was taken at this exact moment 3 years ago: [...]

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” ~ Jeremiah 29:11 I know I have illuded to some horrible financial thing that happened a bit ago and I am still reluctant to say this [...]

Praise Report on Bentley!!!!!!

Remember when I posted about Bentley?  She is the little girl who had a heart issue similar to Ky’s.  Bentley had Tetralogy of Fallot.  Kyleigh had a duke’s mixture of sorts of AV Canal and Tetralogy of Fallot.  Basically Ky’s heart was just REALLY a mess and they had no real term to call it.  [...]

Posted by Amber On May - 25 - 20094 COMMENTS

I had to get back out of bed (even though Cake Boss is premiering!) and write this post.  I know that this will probably never makes its way to Jon and Kate but I feel the need to write because of my recent experience in this arena.  While I do not have 8 children… I [...]

Blessings of the Heart

Posted by Amber On May - 7 - 20094 COMMENTS

Yesterday, May 6, 2009 was exactly 2 years, 3 months and 6 days since Kyleigh’s first open heart surgery in 2007. It was another milestone day that makes me so happy that I can barely find words. I had trouble sleeping on Tuesday night, mostly because of my allergies, but partially because of Ky’s pending [...]
