It's Time

I have been thinking about Minnie Carol's nursery for a while, but with two active little boys have done nothing about it. I really don't know what I want and haven't had an opportunity to look.

Well, just when this was really starting to bother me I got a phone call. Annette(my angel mom) called and asked if I wanted to go to Boerne and San Antonio this weekend and shop for Minnie Carol. YES,YES,YES...if you know me very well this is right up my alley! So on Friday I'm going to meet my Mom and Shelley in San Antonio for a fun girls weekend. YIPPEE!!!

Now, let me explain about the angel mom. Almost 11 years ago my precious mother died from breast cancer when I was only 20 and my brother was 17. My mom was my everything!!! However, she had instilled a strong faith in me and my brother and my Dad is amazing. With the help of God we have continued to live our lives with joy because that is what she wanted. Before she died she made it very clear to all 3 of us that she wanted my Dad to be happy and if that meant him getting remarried then she wanted us to support him. Well, about 5 years ago that special someone came into my Dad's life. Annette was the angel that Mom had sent for him and we are so blessed to have her in our lives.

I'm so thankful that she called and asked me to go shopping with her for little Minnie Carol. Believe me one of the hardest things about loosing my Mom is not having her here for the birth of my children. Thanks Annette for loving me like your own!

I just want all of you out there who still have your mother's to take an extra moment and thank God for them. You never know when he is going to call them home.

I'm looking so forward to Friday and hopefully will have pictures of Minnie Carol's baby bedding next week.

Blessing!!!
