He gently leads me.: 2007
http://kylakay.blogspot.com/2010/05/2007.html
He gently leads me. A journal of motherhood. Monday, May 31, 2010. I took off running down the Ferry pier and along the fishing pier to the left following the ship, dragging my girls behind me, sobbing and waving. Not at all the strong Navy wife and mother I wanted to be. As the ship disappeared around North Island and out to sea, I gathered my kids and held them both, walking back up the pier. An older couple met me and said, "first deployment? I also had great neighbors. My next door neighbor Grace...

Bessman Family Updates: December 2014
http://bessmanfamily.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 26, 2014. Violet 2014 - 14 months). Aubrey 2009 - 13 months). It seems that every year my excitement and anticipation grows along with the kids' until just after opening presents and that "well now it's all over" feeling hits. But I was pleased this year as our kids were genuinely grateful and happy with the treasures they received. The smiles, the hugs, the love, the laughter, the excitement. Celebrating Jesus' birth with the ones I love the most. Monday, December 22, 2014. Right becaus...

Bessman Family Updates: November 2014
http://bessmanfamily.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 25, 2014. So I decided (for the sake of cuteness) to continue our monthly updates/photos of this sweet baby girl. It's so much fun to be able to look back and watch her grow before our eyes. And to look back on all the milestones she was reaching. It's priceless really. And just think of all the new developments she'll be making this year! I recently proclaimed "I'm pretty sure our baby hasn't had a single serving of vegetables in the past three days! Half of it." I said, frustrated.

Bessman Family Updates: October 2014

Friday, October 31, 2014. If you'd like a reminder of what pumpkin carving generally entails in this household refer to this post from 2012. This year we put off carving so long that the beloved event actually happened last night.the night. Before. Halloween. And in case you're wondering why I'm in so many of the photos, it's because this year it went a little something like this. Left the pumpkins outside and nearly "forgot" about carving until the kids insisted we needed jack-o-lanterns. I persuade Bre...

Thursday, April 30, 2015. Brendan was so proud of himself for teaching his baby sister to count. One of the benefits of having older siblings. They'll have her reading by the time she's 3. Monday, April 27, 2015. Twelve to Eighteen Months. I'm not sure how much longer she'll actually pose for these pictures. I'll take them as long as I can get them. Sunday, April 26, 2015. For milk (she'll eat cottage cheese, all cheeses and yogurt.). Sunday, April 19, 2015. In charge of, the ones he works alongside, and...

He gently leads me.: 15 minutes in my life
http://kylakay.blogspot.com/2010/07/15-minutes-in-my-life.html
He gently leads me. A journal of motherhood. Tuesday, July 20, 2010. 15 minutes in my life. Meanwhile, I spot cleaned as fast as I could with the 4 and 3 year olds standing on the couch holding their noses and pointing out all the places I had missed. Oh, the trials of poop. Way to keep it together, girl. Amazing how fast we go from feeling like weve got it under control to everything unraveling at lightning speed. Thanks for sharing! July 20, 2010 at 1:38 PM. July 20, 2010 at 5:51 PM. Needless to say i ...

the spacious place: March 2012
http://alisareese.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 1, 2012. I prayed for a healthier, easier pregnancy that would allow me to be a good mom to my boys. I prayed for a healthy baby. I prayed for financial blessing for my husband in his work, and for our family to "catch a break" that would allow us to be relieved of some burdensome debt. I prayed for a better job for my sister. I prayed that we would be able to be able to share the birth of our child with certain loved ones, and for my kids to be well cared-for during our hospital stay.

Wednesday, October 31, 2012. Cinderella and her Bomber Pilot. Gone are the days where I can get these two to agree on some type of matching costumes. And so Cinderella stepped out with her bomber pilot instead of prince charming this Halloween. Sunday, October 28, 2012. Bessman family pumpkin carving goes a little like this. Kids get excited and then grossed out by the pumpkin "guts" and turn the process over to the parents. And they all live happily ever after. Saturday, October 27, 2012. Then kindergar...

Wednesday, November 28, 2012. Tuesday, November 13, 2012. It looks so cool down there! I fought back tears and lost my stomach. Joe, stifling laughter himself, finally said "hey buddy. I don't think Mommy wants to look." To which Brendan found even more amusement and said "oh mommy, it's not that bad. it's like you're being the kid and I'm the parent! I thought "sure buddy, I'll be the kid for the next 2 minutes if that's what it takes to get me through this ride alive! Monday, November 12, 2012. We arri...
