Since Lucy's illness, we have really had to slow our lives down. I mean REALLY slow down. And, imagine this, we are loving it. We look forward to our Friday nights at home. The girls pretty much declare Friday night movie night, even if that just means watching a little Disney channel before bed. I forget about dishes, laundry and other chores that need to be done and we just snuggle on the couch or play games, or whatever the girls choose.
Jack gets outside time with Daddy...
Last Friday, Ella planted seeds that she picked out with Daddy...
Lucy practiced being a little mommy...
And so did Ella...
Lucy and Daddy made cookies (I just take pictures apparently)...
(look at that hair!)
And Ella practiced her organizational skills (she IS my daughter)....
Lucy looks so good!! I am interested to know what camera you have? Absolutely great, clear pictures!

Hi Again,
ReplyDeleteAfter I sent the last message, it dawned on me I never did receive a reply when I last asked this early so I thought I'd try again.
I don't mean to bother you Kate but I was wondering if the kids got the Christmas package I sent down before Christmas? I hope the sizes were okay. I realized I pick sizes a little bigger but I hope they weren't too BIG!!!
I was also wondering if Lucy got her "Hi" card & you got your "Faith" stone? Kate, The ONLY reason I want to know if you guys did recieve them is b/c I was planning on sending Lucy a Valentine's Day card so I want to make sure I'm sending them to the right address.
Kate, I KNOW you're busy but if you could PLEASE just even hit reply & either put Yes or No I would REALLY, REALLY APPRECIATE IT!!!!!!!
Take Care,
Jenn from Canada

How Beautiful! You will never regret letting all things go for one night a week. You will never get that precious time back.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy every minute! We are continuing to pray without ceasing.
Kate.... LUCY looks amazing! God is so good! Ella is so cute with her braces.... & Jack! Well I could kiss his sweet cheeks!
ReplyDeleteHave a great Friday night!
These pictures/this post...just makes me smile : ) Lucy is looking good! Of course I haven't met that sweet girl in person, but just seeing the pictures, it looks like she's really perking up...her color, that beautiful smile, and a sparkle in those fabulously blue eyes! I'm glad y'all are getting to have some "down time" and just hang out as a family...precious times. Your faith, your family, Lucy, and of course our Awesome God continue to amaze me : ) Y'all are such a blessing to SO many people...you just can't even imagine!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness! Your kids are beautiful! That last shot of Lucy&the last one of Ella.. So beautiful. Ella has become such a young lady.
ReplyDeleteI can't get over how great Lucy looks. The twinkle is back in her eyes. I love it.
ReplyDeleteSweet, precious family moments! Ahh...they're the best!
ReplyDeleteWow Lucy! Hair...wheee!!!!!!!
I am so thankful to see the "good days" outweighing the other days in your life these days. I am continuing to pray daily for your family. And yes, I did see her hair growing. That is another reminder that healing is taking place in Lucy's body. Keep enjoying your sweet family as these days go by. Our God is so awesome. Love, Pat Williams, a grandmother in Tuscaloosa
ReplyDeleteI love Friday nights at our house- we do nothing, except what the kids want and I think it does wonders for us all. Lucy looks good- you can see a sparkle in her eyes :)
ReplyDeleteSending prays up for Lucy and all your family. Have a wonderful weekend!
Oh my- I LOVE that Lucy's hair is coming in!! Is that silly to be that excited about it??? Praying that she is getting stronger and stronger every day, by the grace of our Loving God! Enjoy your "quiet" family evenings together!
ReplyDeleteThe picture of Ella in her braces is stunningly beautiful. She is a gorgeous little girl!
