I knew I didn't like spiders!

Philip got a spider bite at work and had to go to the doctor and get a bunch of medicine. The doctor said he could tell it was a spider bite because it did not itch like an ant bite would and it is painful to the touch. But the doctor also said that he didn't think it was a brown recluse but that he couldn't be for sure that it wasn't. We HOPE not!

Happy Friday to my family, everyone enjoy and have a safe and relaxing weekend!!
Love to all,

Happy Birthday, Patsy

Fish Fry

Looking forward to the fish fry on Saturday, May 21, 2:00 p.m. @ the Brims -- where else would you have a "FISH" fry???

Happy Mother's Day

Before I was a Mom -
I slept as late as I wanted and never worried about how late I got into bed. I brushed my hair and my teeth everyday.

Before I was a Mom - I cleaned my house each day. I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby. I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.I never thought about immunizations.

Before I was a Mom - I had never been puked on.
Pooped on.
Spit on.
Chewed on.
Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts and I slept all night.

Before I was a Mom - I never held down a screaming child, so that doctors could do tests, or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.

Before I was a Mom - I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put it down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt. I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much. I never knew that I could love someone so much. I never knew I would love being a Mom.

Before I was a Mom - I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body. I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby. I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child. I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy.

Before I was a Mom - I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay. I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom. I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much before I was a Mom.

And before I was a Grandma, I didn't know that all those "Mom" feelings more than doubled when you see that little bundle being held by your baby...

Happy Mother's Day, Enjoy and remember that behind every successful mother...... Is a basket of dirty laundry.

Thanks!

I just wanted to say thanks to you guys for coming to the Southern Living Party. We don't see enough of each other as it is! Can't wait for the fish fry. I hope to be over the morning sickness by then. Love you all!
