BB & HP

What an incredible few days. First of all, I now have a new child to take care of during the day. His name is Charlie and he just turned one. I'm so happy that little man will have another boy to play with here at the house. He is being overrun by girls! He came out of Cassidy's room one day with blush and a necklace on. Yeah, we REALLY need more boys around this house. But I am so grateful for the children that have come into my life, both old and new. They all fit here so well and I can't imagine life without them.

On a more sad note, Bruce got laid off at Old Dominion. We knew this was a possibility when he got the job since the trucking industry is so fickle and he has never worked on fork lifts, but having that job the past few months was such a blessing and now we are moving onto something else. He already has 3 interviews! I am so proud of him. But obviously God has other plans for our family and we are excited to see where he is leading us.

On a bittersweet note, LITTLE BRUCE IS TURNING TWO! AHH!! I can't believe that this is happening. It seems like he was just born yesterday. I feel like time is flying by and I can't do anything to slow it down so I can enjoy this age just a little bit longer. He is the sweetest little boy. I couldn't ask for a better son. I am so happy that we are going to be able to celebrate his birthday with all of our family here in Tennessee. Last year was so hard because all of our family was back in Tennessee, with the exception of Lisa, Mark and Ricky.

But I do have a prayer request. Ricky's girlfriend, Brittny, lost her grandfather yesterday (Tuesday). She was very close with him and her family is going through a very rough time. Please just keep them in your prayers.

Now onto the entertainment portion of my blog:

IT'S BIG BROTHER TIME!!! To most people summer means the beach, cookouts and etc...But to me and my mom, it's means Big Brother on CBS. They announced a few weeks ago that 6 old houseguests would be returning and we were praying that one of them would be Evel Dick. And then premiere night came and our wish came true. He walked through those doors and we lost it. We even posted a video on Facebook! He is our all time favorite houseguest. But then we found out that within a week of the game starting he had to leave. From what I have read he had a friend who needed him. I'm assuming he was hurt or sick, but whatever the case may be I just hope that everything turned out for the best. I will for sure miss him this season, but I hope that he will be back on another season.

The final Harry Potter is coming out Friday. I can't even explain how that makes me feel. I have been reading these book since middle school! And on Friday it's over, done, finished, no more! It's been such an incredible ride though.
