Amazing story

Ever since I heard the story of this AMAZING mom, I've been a changed mom and person. Take a minute and read this blog, and you will be so touched. You will need a tissue because it will make you cry. It has made me appreciate, love, and hug my kids tighter. This mom is an example of how giving, loving, and devoted every mom should be to these special children we have been trusted to take care of. I think my mother in law said it best the other day, "when we choose to have children we give up our own life to serve our children, we put their happiness and needs above our own".
Reading her story of heartache, prayers answered, and the unwavering love she has for her little boy Tripp is so inspirational to me. She was voted ABC news most inspirational person for 2011, and she deserves it!! I do believe that many times our trials are to make us more aware of those around us, teach us life lessons, bring us and others closer to God, love more deeply, and find the joy in our lives everyday, even if it's just one thing everyday. This story is so heartbreaking, but amazing what this little boy has taught thousands of people in his short 2 years on this earth. I'm thankful for people like this mom that stand up to life even when it's so hard, and she turns everything over to God. I know the only way you get through things like this is with lots of prayer, and faith.

Be sure to click on the right hand side on the picture that says I'll need a pinky swear. She has written the most touching poem to her little boy.

Anonymous said...: Wow! What a strong, courageous, Mom. I am not surprised that Heavenly Father chose a nurse to be his mother. I love her scriptures on adversity and passing judgement. It is so touching what some of these little babies go through to come to this earth and receive a body. Thanks for sharing...; January 15, 2012 at 8:50 PM

Lexi's Funny Moments

9/15/08- Lexi asked Cody if he had to go to work, and he said yes. He asked her why daddy has to work and she said, "because it takes a lot of money."
9/21/08-Lexi had her pretend cell phone out, when all of the sudden I hear her say "oh no I missed a call."
10/15/08-Lexi opened our front door and said "mommy, it smells like elephants out here." It did smell like cow poop outside pretty bad. I had to laugh.
10/23/08- Lexi is playing with her mr. potato head elmo doll. She puts on the mustache and says, "look mommy and daddy, he has a musmache." We couldn't stop laughing.
10/24/08-Lately when Lexi can't get Cody's attention she will first try daddy, and then she will say "hey Cody." She is getting pretty smart!
11/13/08-I asked Lexi if she wanted to go to preschool one day and she said "no, I just want to stay at home with you mommy."
11/13/08- Every night Lexi tells us the sprinkler is bothering her. Cody has to get up on her bed talk to the sprinkler on her ceiling and tell it to be nice so Lexi can go to sleep.
11/13/08-The other day Lexi wasn't up from her nap yet and Trey went to her door and layed by it. Whenever she isn't up he always goes over to her door and starts tapping on it.
