Random Sunshine

I don't understand the weather in this state. Marcus has been sick for over a week now (hence the snot face), but we still ventured outside today to play in the front yard.

My Own Photoshoot!

So the one thing I have been asked for on my website (click here) is an about me page. Well the only problem with that was I did not have any pictures of myself because I am always the one on the other side of the camera. My buddy and neighbor (click here) who is an aspiring photographer agreed to take some photos of me. Didn't she do such a great job. I apologize for the last one, I do not feel as comfortable on the other side of the camera and had a hard time acting normal!

First Haircut

Today my little boy became a man, ok well not a man, but a my baby became a little boy. It was haircut day at the Bonner house because, to be quite honest, my children were starting to look a bit homeless. For me this was a heartbreaking time. My last baby lost those precious little baby curls off the nape of his neck. He did great! Gosh I love that face.

God Bless the USA

In the politically correct world we live in I am so grateful and PROUD! to say that I love our country and the freedoms it gives me and my family! I am proud to be an American (.. where at least I know I'm free.. ok just kidding no songs from me). I never get sick of seeing the flag! As some of you may know my little brother joined the Army and leaves for boot camp in a week and I want to thank him in advance for securing my freedom to enjoy my family!!!

MOPS

Fall means the start of Mothers of Preschoolers (MOPS). Last year was the first year that I attended MOPS and let me tell you how much God used it to bless and grow me. I thought MOPS was a place for moms to just sit around and gab, do a craft and share some food while the kids were being played with in their classrooms. While it was that it was so much more. MOPS is a place where you are surrounded by other moms who can relate to you. They don't judge you and some of them have struggled with or are struggling with some of the same frustrations you are.

Last year when I was so angry and didn't know why our MOPS had someone share their experience with Post Partum Depression. When my marriage was feeling strained someone spoke on how to love your husband. Best of all MOPS is full of women who are in the same stage of life and as you share your life with them friendships are formed. If you have not been – GO!

www.mops.org can help you find a group near you.

If you are in my area get in touch with me and I can help you find one. I firmly believe that every mom can benefit from this amazing organization!
