Friday was a great start to the weekend! Terrell had the day off of work so he did a little work on some music and then we went to see Transformers 2. We have been waiting FOREVER for it to come out and finally got to go see it. LOVED IT! Thanks to my parents for watching the little ones while we went out :) After the movie we came home and Talaya, Jaelyn and Arianna came over. Later Marcy, CaJuan, and Arrie-Sky came to hangout.
The kids played together for hours and seemed to have so much fun! It's great to see them all together again! Including Arrie-Sky!! She is CaJuan's four year old daughter. She is super cute! I wish I had taken some pics. Next time. The girls were looking up Michael Jackson videos on the internet. My mom asked me the other day if I think any of my kids will remember/know who Michael Jackson is. Then asked me if that made me feel old! I said Jae knows who he is so therefore I am still young!! Jae and Arianna seemed to know a bunch of his songs.
I still think that it is weird that he died...but I guess we all go sometime and who knows when that will be. We are not promised tomorrow or even the next minute. I am so thankful for the many blessings the Lord has given this family. The Lord continues to provide for us in so many ways. He showers our family with grace. He continues to love us. I was really burdened on Thursday by the deaths of Farrah and Michael, a story my mom told me about a mother who accidently left her 2 year old in the car and she died, and I saw a horrible motorcycle accident. It just reminded me of how the Lord is in total control. All I could do was pray. We need Him more than anything. It's amazing the grace he shows this family. He has protected us on many occasions. If I go through my life there are many ways I can remember he has protected me and my family from when I was a child. It is such a blessing the way he hold this family, with our kids and Terrell, together. We have a unique family dynamic and he holds us strong together with love. For this I am very grateful!
