Little Helper

I was looking through my pictures and realize I have so much catching up to do as far as sharing with all you bloggers I can't really see:) This is what is so funny to me....I check peoples blogs more than I call or visit them....I guess it's a way to keep in touch:) So I will leave you all with pictures from a trip to Wal-Mart to buy diapers. My guy is a helper (and mommy loves that!). He wants to help me carry lots of things even if they are beyond his strength to carry, he tries his hardest to pick it up. He also throws his own diapers away and he picks up after me (if I leave the wipes sitting on the floor or on the couch, he picks them up and puts them on the counter where they belong:) Anyway, so here he is wanting to carry his diapers out of Wal-Mart. He got lots of smirks and "oh so cute", so I am sure that was what was keeping him going.

Check it out...he's biting the diapers...I think to help him keep a hold of them:)

He still did not want to let them go when Francisco picked him up. In fact, he held on to them even in his car seat the whole way home. What a hoot!

I'm a follower!

So thanks to Em....I feel like a new blogger woman! :) I had to jump on the wagon:) Seriously, I love these new FREE blog designs. I especially picked this one....because my favorite color is green and also because I think it looks like it is wrapped in a gift...and that is exactly how I feel about this life the Lord has given me and everything I am able to experience is a gift from the Lord. Anyway, here is where I got the new blog design:

The Shack

If you are looking for a book to read, I HIGHLY recommend this one! It is a book that uses a fictional story to try and illustrate the trinity. I am so wrapped up in this book. The story is a great one and the way the author brings in the trinity to illustrate it....it is truly captivating and amazing. I already need to go back through because it is full of a bunch of good stuff! It has helped me understand more of God's character. There is more info about the book and the suthor at theshackbook.com.

My Dad continued...

So, my dad is still in the hospital and they are saying probably 1-2 more weeks he needs to be there. He fractured and sprained his pelvis and he also broke off a bone that comes off his vertebrae. Besides that he is very bruised and sore. He currently can't walk and he is also in a lot of pain. On top of it he is extremely sad that he may not be at home next week when all of his children and grandchildren will be in town visiting. Pray for his strength...that he would be strong to walk and also pray for him emotionally. I will keep you all updated.

My Dad

Please pray for my dad. On Saturday evening he fell off a ladder. It was a far fall. The Lord provided my mom with some good neighbors of theirs that were close by at the time to help call for help as she was a little shaken up.

No one likes to receive news like this, especially when it hits so close to home. As of right now, the thing I know for sure is he did break a vertebrae and they are concerned about his pelvic area. He is in a lot of pain as I am sure you can all imagine.

Please pray that the Lord would heal him, quick. Also pray that through this time he would find comfort in the Lord and be able to rest despite his excruciating pain. Also pray for my mom, that she would hold up okay for him and be able to rest.

I am still trying to find my place in all of this, as I want to jump in the car right now and go help out, but I have a job to do on Monday and a son to take care of. I love my dad and I want to be there like he has been there for me.

Thanks for praying blogger buddies:)
