Advice

I think one of my biggest worries of raising my children (these days) is that they won't be kind.

I see cruelness in kids.  Even at VBS, one of the best of circumstances, kids are mean to each other.  Especially as they get on towards 4th grade.  I see the beginnings of it in Liam's preschool class, sometimes even in my own son.  It's one of the reasons I toss around the idea of homeschooling.

I'm not saying it wasn't this way when I was growing up.  It might be normal...but that doesn't make it right.

This blog post a friend posted on Facebook has some good words of advice on manners.  I think I'll be poking around this blog more often in search for more nuggets of wisdom...

Blue eyes in a blue Woombie in a blue rocker:

Father

Here's my husband, Liam & Larkin's father, on Father's Day morning 2012.  I have to tell you, he is a fantastic dad!  He is a blessing to me and to his children. 

We love him :)

It's a Girl!!!

We spent about 16 hours in this room...

...and ended up here once again!

God's hand was over us!  After looking at my uterus in surgery, Dr. Michael believes that it would have definitely ruptured if I had pushed.  I got to labor like I wanted to and the baby came out in the safest way for both of us.  Praise the Lord!

And, here she is!  Larkin Lynn Sherry.

Larkin is a really sweet and good baby...not to mention cute as a button!  She sleeps well and gained 2 pounds by her 2 week check-up!  Liam has had no problems adjusting to the new addition.  He says, "Mama, I like her."  I love my family!!!

I still can't believe I have a daughter!
