Jeff

Well it has been a crazy two weeks but I think that has all come to an end. Jeff left last Tuesday to go to Louisiana for work. He had to be gone till Monday night. Sadly, while he was there, one of our friends got notice that his mom was not doing well and he needed to get home. Him mother, Lisa Raynor (an amazing women), passed away early Sunday morning. Lisa was an amazing lady with an amazing voice and heart for God. She loved our boy and so looked forward to getting any cards with pictures that we sent her way. Our family will cherish the time that we were able to spend with her. Please continue to pray for Matt and his family. I have never had to experience anything like this so it is hard for me to even comprehend the pain a child goes through when their parent goes on to be with the Lord. Ms. Lisa is up in Heaven singing in the choir of angels and we can all look forward to hearing her singing upon our arrival into the pearly gates.

Anyhow, Jeff got home Monday night and then he left again Wednesday morning so that he could go to Indiana to be with Matt and his family for the funeral. Luke was so sweet about his daddy leaving. We prayed all week for his daddy to be safe and for Matt and his family. I told him that Jeff was going to see Matt and Becky and left it at that....but leave it to my child to add his own story to things. Luke kept saying that Jeff went to see Matt and Becky and the baby!!! I think he may be predicting the future or it could be that he just stays very confused about our baby coming.

Well, Jeff made it home last night and we tried hard to stay up for him but Luke just could not make it. He was very excited (once he got past his mommy stage in the morning) to see Jeff this morning. He got to get back to his morning routine: go to the bathroom, brush teeth, chap stick, floss, and spray deodorant....in that order, lol. Its hard to keep Luke on his routine when Jeff is gone because I am doing good just to get shoes on him and me!!!

We are so glad to be back together as a family and are really looking forward to a wonderful weekend. Lots of pictures to come with the weekend post.
