The Dooley Diaries: 5 years
http://thedooleydiaries.blogspot.com/2013/04/5-years.html
It's late, and I have no pictures to post. But, this day is so emotional for me. It passed by quickly. I sobbed tears of joy with someone I love dearly. I was able to have 2 sweet moms in my messy home for the afternoon. I went to Bible Study. All the while, remembering. Today was the day he died. And I miss him. So much. Still. And I will, everyday, for the rest of this earthly life. He added so much color to this world, that Kevin. I am so glad I knew him. Miss you, Kev. Love you long time.

When Harrison was living in my belly, we didn't know if he was a boy or a girl. Same thing with Blythe. I loved it. I loved not knowing, and when he came out it was the best surprise of my life. However, it did make it tough in deciding on names.because we had to choose two. One for a boy, one for a girl. Well, we always knew if we had a boy we would call him Harrison, even dating back to our honeymoon. Not when he was 4. By his pre-school teacher. H has darling teachers, one of them who kinda talks like...

At 35 and a half weeks, we moved into a new home, and my (former) stepmother died, and I got into a fender bender (with a guy who turned out to be a little crazy and bothersome). Stress and sadness would be understatements! So, at my 36 week appointment, I asked the doctor if I could travel to Virginia Beach for the funeral. He was going to let me.until he checked me. I was 1cm, and the baby was super low. He told me to stay put and stay out of trouble. At 2:20 am, I was laying on my left side, and bent ...

My Dad and my Godfather Charlie built this boat in 1980, the year I was born.and I have lots of good memories of days on Lake Lanier on this guy! I had not had a ride on it with my dad since before our wedding in 2004.living in another state and another country, leaving only time for short visits doesn't make for much time on the lake.a crime, in my opinion! Lindsey, Grace, Blythe and me. This is such a Brett face to me! Those long eyelashes just about kill me! Harrison LOVES his girls! Thanks, Chris, Li...

Just a few things I wanted to remember. Today my sister took Harrison to the park.he came home with little flowers for me. He said, "Mom, I picked some beautiful flowers for you because you're so beautiful.". And, Story # 2. Yesterday I took Blythe to the doctor to check on a lingering cold. The doctor I saw was someone new to me. He picked her up and smiled at her and she smiled right back, and he said:. Phew, her Daddy needs to worry! It's true.he already does.

My son is so precious to me. I have loved every moment since birth. Every season has been my favorite. Which makes this one my favorite right now. He is rapidly approaching age 5, and with everything in me, I want to slam on the brakes. But, also, with everything in me, I am dying to see something new each day. We talk every day. And every day it's special. Here's a few things he said today. I took him to Target with me. It was SO fun! And when we walked to the car, and I popped the trunk, he asked, "Mom?

I'm just finishing day 16 out of 17 full days of my husband being halfway around the world. Lord willing, he will be home tomorrow! And it has been easy, so, so easy. I have not cooked anything more than a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.I have been fed every single night by nearby families. I have seen friends that I haven't seen in eons. I have had so much help with my kids. I have even gotten more than a few afternoons to myself. My house? But, today.today was hard. And I hugged her tighter tonight.

On August 23, 2013, I found two very faded pink lines on a pregnancy test. Shock, tears and disbelief, thankfulness, praise- it was a myriad of emotions! This time, I knew, without a doubt, that God's timing was so perfect. Painful, but perfect. I rejoiced with friends expecting babies. I shed tears sometimes that I couldn't be expecting with them, but I was glad. But, my hope was waning. I was getting tired of hoping and getting let down. I remember going on a walk crying on the phone to my frie...Just ...

The Dooley Diaries: Hope
http://thedooleydiaries.blogspot.com/2013/02/hope.html
About 6 years ago, Brett and I started naming our years.It has varied each year, whether we name it in January or September (which is our 'new' year) in marriage. The words have been simple, but chock full of meaning.fun, change, healing. This January we didn't talk about it much. But, I have a word, and I think it will stand for both of us. It is written on my plate that sits close to our door. It is so simple, and so complicated. That is my word for 2013. What do I hope for? So, so much. But, no matter...
