The Bug and The Drama Queen

A visit from Cuz and other MISC...

My cousin Katie and her husband Randy came to visit yesterday.

We had such a wonderful time sitting back, catching up.

Her and I used to be so tight.....

but time went by, and we were so far apart....

we never really lost touch, but our relationship became distant.

It is so nice to reconnect with her, and get to know her AWESOME family.

Here are some pictures from her wonderful visit....and boy did time FLY!!

Katie, Alek, and Randy....


Adorable little Alek.....


Drama Mama and Alek sharing a kiss.....how sweet!~

Katie and Alek.....he is such a cutie pie!


CANT WAIT FOR OUR BBQ ON THE 24th!!!! HUGS TO THE FAMILY!!!

Now here are a few of Drama Mama I took yesterday...

hehe..she is NOT happy...I just did her hair.


Outside...noticing her shadow for the 1st time...


and a quick video....she is so precious to me.



ALSO...............

Wow

I was visiting a friends blog today....she had lost her 5 year old daughter in a drowning accident last year, and has been a huge inspiration in my life.
I know she isn't perfect (who is?)...but it is her constant outlook on life...even after something as devastating as a loss of a child that amazes me.

She had found another blog of someone who had lost their 3 and a half old little girl, and as I visited this site to offer words of comfort and prayer.....

I was surprised to find that I was the one who was comforted.

She had posted a video (in her Dec archive) of a 12 year old (at the time) young man.

He lives in a VERY rural town in Nebraska, and had to put a calf down one day. He called the radio station after and said this...



I am stunned that a 12 year old can have so much wisdom and depth in his words.

It only goes to show how POWERFUL words can be.

I am thankful I got to see that, and will refer back to it often.

Hope you all have a MOST WONDERFUL Day!!!! God Bless!
