All Things Caden





Caden's birth was definitely traumatic. A prolapsed cord was diagnosed and I was rolled into the O/R with my 8-months-pregnant OB riding on top of the bed with her hand holding his head off of the cord so he could get oxygen. From the time she ran into the room till the time he was born was 6 minutes.

But he's here & he's glorious boy. He loves anything with wheels, talks up a storm, and thinks his daddy walks on water. He's a challenge, but I love every day with him & wouldn't trade him for anything in the world.

I'm back

For the pitifully few of you who are probably checking this, I am recommitting to blogging. I'm recommitting to a lot of things. I, unlike many normal people, have made a list of summer resolutions. As a teacher, I find myself blissfully free for several months a year & this is a wonderful time to get refreshed, renewed, and reenergized. So, that being said, I am starting my diet again (thanks to The Biggest Loser reruns). I am in the midst of an awesome bible study (Thanks Central ladies!). I am also organizing & cleaning my home to get ready for a garage sale.

Caden just celebrated his 2nd birthday! He is such a big boy now. He's in the throws of the 'no' passion, although he adds a bit of attitude by saying "No way!" Cute, but needs discipline nonetheless.

I will leave you with the words to my favorite Christian song right now (it constantly changes)

Desperation - Rescue

You are the source of the life
I can't be left behind
No one else will do
I will take hold of you

I need You Jesus
To come to my rescue
Where else can I go
There's no other name by
Which I am saved
Capture me with grace
I will follow you

This world has nothing for me
I will follow You
This world has nothing for me
I will follow You
