Ours was an oyster cracker. Scariest moment of my life--except when AJ wrecked his motorcycle.

Oh I know you were freaking on the inside but you kept your wits and drew on everything you had inside. It is a lot like you described in your entry entitled JANE--"Something passes between us. It's almost a permission, a leading and following all at once, as if we both grabbed hands and began to run." Except in this case Lulie's life depended on it.Goathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12009157421965361554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2454663817940422736.post-11114312623360652192009-02-20T08:44:11.081-08:002009-02-20T08:44:11.081-08:00Well you definitely got my heart racing!

My sleeve felt damp. Both hands were slippery..." after I have a confrontation with my dear, sweet child who is transforming into an adult before my very eyes. I feel as though LeRoy should "scoop up the other kids and shoo them into the sun room" where they can "pray for help." I am inspired, encouraged, empowered by your blog, to keep at it, "make a last ditch effort" to sweep the heart for any remaining "debris." You're such a great Mama, Bethany! I LOVE the way you keep your composure, your perspective. Your children are so very blessed. Thank you, God, for holding Lulu and the other two in your hands and for giving Bethany the grace to handle each situation as it presents itself.Olson Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12126101492297665814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2454663817940422736.post-19795822892803659182009-02-22T18:16:43.441-08:002009-02-22T18:16:43.441-08:00Oh how scary...

She told me that if she is out to eat and sees a little kid eating grapes, she stays until they are done in case they need heimlicking. Hence, I didn't feed my kids grapes until they were ten.Pig Womanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02247528998118262284noreply@blogger.com
