TIME & Baby Shower

What a weekend it has been.  Family, friends, crafts, food, laughter, babies, memories, happiness, gifts, fellowship, singing and most of all time!  It is so wonderful to have that – time with people who mean a lot to you.  There are never enough hours in the day – there is never enough days in the week – there are never enough weeks in the month – there are never enough months in the summer…I meant year (ha) – there are never enough years in a lifetime.  So, with weekends like this where everyone puts what they have going on down in their busy lives and come together is always a great blessing!!

Thursday night the hunting guys came into town and hunted all weekend.  We saw them sporadically though out the weekend.  Friday my parents and sisters came to town for Sarah’s baby showers.  The shower Saturday was a success.  Little Aaron has more clothes than he can wear in a lifetime – just sayin’.  He is going to be uptown and certainly is already very loved!!  Friday night, the sisters, mom and I sat down and finished up the decorations for the shower.  We laughed, we talked, we laughed some more – Jenni and Haley gave up helping us because we were being too silly….and some of the crafts just were not working out like we thought they would.  Rebecca cannot cut a straight line – but, she is a great helper of cleaning up a mess!  Sarah, is becoming crafty but her nerves itch a little too much.  Mom, well she just laughs at us because NONE of us have her talent. 

I spent a little time rubbing on Aaron – and he really seems to like that…or maybe not.  He would kick me or put his little butt up and roll over.  The kids were amazed at how a little baby in a mommy’s belly could do such a thing.  He was very active but only when Sarah wasn’t.  He has that figured out. I assume he will love for Aunt Rachel to rock him – a lot! 

I am so happy for Sarah and Tim!!  Time – Aaron will be here in less than 10 weeks.  He will be a baby – new to life yet, he will be a baby for a short time. He will be a little boy for a short time. He will grow into a teenager and be there for what seems like an eternity but it will be just a short while. Then, he will be grown.  I pray that his life is blessed with wonderful God fearing, Jesus walking praying parents.  Sarah and Tim will make Aaron the best little guy!!  He will be in their hearts for a life time! He will always be their little boy – their first born and the will cherish their time with him.  Once he is all grown, their jobs will be done – and he will always remember them being there for him!!

Blessing:  TIME with some of the most important people in my life!
