Well, it actually started yesterday when Mom came over and told me to go and not come back until 5p. She even took over carpool to pick up all the kiddos! Wow! I was able to go shopping and was blessed to hit a $5 sale at one of my favorite stores. I bought 10 shirts for $5 each and a $5 purse that I absolutely love! Yay! Thanks, Mom! Then today my sisnlaw, Jill, said she would watch Elijah and Grace so I can work on SewSensible. I was able to sew two Boutique Bottoms and get some computer work done and then I decided to get the next outfits for the next pattern cover and go to Jill's and take pictures of Grace and Annalyce. I am so glad that they came out good! These are a few of today's pictures. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5201018826816507562-6690290872182013928?l=ampoche.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/feeds/6690290872182013928/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5201018826816507562&amp;postID=6690290872182013928' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/6690290872182013928'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/6690290872182013928'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/2011/01/sewing-pattern-cover-photoshoot.html' title='Sewing Pattern cover photoshoot!'/><author><name>AdoptedAsHisOwn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03689939037406988587</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8JrbE3WWk9w/TlrlMy7WIjI/AAAAAAAAEH4/qkE8J5PVPEw/s220/familypic3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/TUNus4N38JI/AAAAAAAAEFw/10tLvmbozao/s72-c/IMG_0430%2Bcherrycream.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5201018826816507562.post-7305688428789103106</id><published>2011-01-27T09:48:00.006-06:00</published><updated>2011-02-02T09:23:54.458-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Family'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='school'/><title type='text'>Asa's Field Trip!</title><content type='html'>&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 420px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 287px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566893651747604418" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/TUGUSBbLB8I/AAAAAAAAEFI/7uBbiRu9-rg/s400/IMG_0261%2Bcherrycream.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Have I told y'all lately that I love being a Mom! Love it! I love love preschool and elementary school age groups! They are just so much fun. Asa's field trip was this week and thank you, Mom, for watching the kiddos at home so I could go with him. We went to see a play about your health: Mr. SlimGoodBody or something like that. Mrs. Christian (whom we love) did a great job at picking at an educational fieldtrip.  I did pay attention but I was more excited about watching how Asa reacted to what he was seeing. He was all smiles as he got in line to go ride on the school bus and then all smiles as he sat in his seat with his friends. I sat two rows behind him. At one point Mr. SlimGoodbody wanted some volunteers and all hands were raised..... except Asa's! He is so funny. He acts so shy in front of others. I love him! After the show the children went back to school and had pizza. It was a good day :) It's a WONDERFUL LIFE!! :)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5201018826816507562-7305688428789103106?l=ampoche.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/feeds/7305688428789103106/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5201018826816507562&amp;postID=7305688428789103106' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/7305688428789103106'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/7305688428789103106'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/2011/01/asas-field-trip.html' title='Asa&apos;s Field Trip!'/><author><name>AdoptedAsHisOwn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03689939037406988587</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8JrbE3WWk9w/TlrlMy7WIjI/AAAAAAAAEH4/qkE8J5PVPEw/s220/familypic3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/TUGUSBbLB8I/AAAAAAAAEFI/7uBbiRu9-rg/s72-c/IMG_0261%2Bcherrycream.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5201018826816507562.post-5137999117227591737</id><published>2011-01-20T19:42:00.003-06:00</published><updated>2011-01-20T19:47:24.770-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Family'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='school'/><title type='text'>Asa's Flat Stanley!</title><content type='html'>&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 420px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 287px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5564449127068854754" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/TTjk_9Wr6eI/AAAAAAAAEFA/gtaKzBriP3I/s400/IMG_9838flatstanley.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Asa is in Mrs. Christian's class this year and he just loves school!

I cannot believe our Elijah is already 4 years old..... 4 years old! I have to admit that today I really wanted more children. I wanted more little pitter patter feet running around, I wanted more giggling toddlers in their diapers in the living room, I wanted to hold on to all this cuteness at their young ages!! I just love this age. I had to quickly thank God that we do have children and children that He no doubt blessed us with. We love them so much. I know they can't stay young forever but wow it is a little painful to watch them getting bigger. Again, thank You, Lord, for our blessings! Thank You for our many blessings! Thank You for this precious birthday and all the rest we will celebrate this year! Thank You, Lord! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5201018826816507562-86796020110150990?l=ampoche.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/feeds/86796020110150990/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5201018826816507562&amp;postID=86796020110150990' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/86796020110150990'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/86796020110150990'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/2011/01/happy-4th-birthday-elijah.html' title='Happy 4th Birthday, Elijah!'/><author><name>AdoptedAsHisOwn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03689939037406988587</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8JrbE3WWk9w/TlrlMy7WIjI/AAAAAAAAEH4/qkE8J5PVPEw/s220/familypic3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/TSXhBkvf2II/AAAAAAAAEAQ/f8NplmR-ecM/s72-c/IMG_9346flattened.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5201018826816507562.post-1220269303183921944</id><published>2011-01-02T19:46:00.006-06:00</published><updated>2011-01-02T20:00:39.373-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Projects'/><title type='text'>Project Kid Artwork Room Display!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5557771386295887442" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/TSEroSb_JlI/AAAAAAAAD_A/XUXE3Om4Bzg/s400/IMG_1742.JPG" /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/TSEsBMqjYNI/AAAAAAAAEAA/FMSqcYAArOY/s1600/IMG_1723.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5557771814243098834" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/TSEsBMqjYNI/AAAAAAAAEAA/FMSqcYAArOY/s400/IMG_1723.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;em&gt;1.

And the other nations said, “What amazing things the Lord has done for them.” 3 Yes, the Lord has done amazing things for us! What joy! 4 Restore our fortunes, Lord, as streams renew the desert. 5 &lt;strong&gt;Those who plant in tears will harvest with shouts of joy. 6 They weep as they go to plant their seed, but they sing as they return with the harvest. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Philippians 4:6-8&lt;/strong&gt; 6 Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. 8 And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Romans 8:28&lt;/strong&gt; 28 And we know that God causes everything to work together[a] for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Genesis 50:20&lt;/strong&gt; 20 You intended to harm me&lt;em&gt; (us),&lt;/em&gt; but God intended it all for good. He brought me &lt;em&gt;(us)&lt;/em&gt; to this position so I &lt;em&gt;(we)&lt;/em&gt; could save the lives of many people. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hebrews 13:5-6&lt;/strong&gt; 5 Don’t love money; be satisfied with what you have. For God has said, “I will never fail you. I will never abandon you.”[a] 6 So we can say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper, so I will have no fear. What can mere people do to me?”[b] &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;here this is in the Amplified Bible&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hebrews 13:5-6&lt;/strong&gt; 5Let your [a]character or moral disposition be free from love of money [including greed, avarice, lust, and craving for earthly possessions] and be satisfied with your present [circumstances and with what you have]; for He [God] [b]Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you nor [c]give you up nor leave you without support. [I will] not, [d][I will] not, [I will] not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor [e]let [you] down ([f]relax My hold on you)! [[g]Assuredly not!](A) 6So we take comfort and are encouraged and confidently and boldly say, The Lord is my Helper; I will not be seized with alarm [I will not fear or dread or be terrified].

I have started a really good book about raising boys that I am squeezing in as I watch the children play outside. I actually ordered a few more for boys and a few for girls. I have a strong personal goal to master this parenting call God has given me :) I want our boys to be gentlemen and our girls to be ladies. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5201018826816507562-2702712349574602411?l=ampoche.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/feeds/2702712349574602411/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5201018826816507562&amp;postID=2702712349574602411' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/2702712349574602411'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/2702712349574602411'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/2010/06/busy-busy-summer.html' title='Busy Busy Summer!'/><author><name>AdoptedAsHisOwn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03689939037406988587</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8JrbE3WWk9w/TlrlMy7WIjI/AAAAAAAAEH4/qkE8J5PVPEw/s220/familypic3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/TBjF9v9PyhI/AAAAAAAADes/j71U2NzbBQE/s72-c/IMG_6225.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5201018826816507562.post-1838822406606132528</id><published>2010-06-03T20:36:00.010-05:00</published><updated>2010-06-03T21:05:31.451-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Family'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='school'/><title type='text'>Rose's Kindergarten Graduation and Asa finishes 1st Grade!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5478728882269587042" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/TAha5BBaBmI/AAAAAAAADdE/qYHc2BaGjkc/s400/IMG_5684E.jpg" /&gt; the Kindergarten graduates: Rose and Mia!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 267px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5478728873105035522" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/TAha4e4aEQI/AAAAAAAADc8/alnmSlahNSU/s400/IMG_5692E.jpg" /&gt; your time is coming Annalyce! :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 267px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5478728521237127426" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/TAhakAEj4QI/AAAAAAAADc0/8Rey1GMyZFI/s400/IMG_5694E.jpg" /&gt; Awww!

Yesterday was just beautiful so after picking up the school children we went outside and played and played. Here are a few pictures I took and played around with on the computer! Aren't our children the best and most beautiful!! I surely think so!! I love my family!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Ok! I am back! Did you miss me? I just spilled my coffee all over my lap and floor! I am still smiling..... HA!! Anyway, we had a nice time yesterday in the back yard.

He was actually so "out-of-character" for him! He was Mark the Monkey and their theme was "they are loveable" and so I made him this monkey costume. The shirt was all tucked in, the tail in the back and all. But by the time Asa made it on stage with his class, his shirt was untucked, he was obsessed with this tail and he played with it the whole chapel!!!!! Me and Mom were laughing so hard because while the play was going on Asa was that child..... waving at us, making his tail go over his head, waving his tail, etc..... he was so cute to watch!! Great job, Asa!!!!! You did awesome!!!!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5201018826816507562-6661292123304084255?l=ampoche.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/feeds/6661292123304084255/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5201018826816507562&amp;postID=6661292123304084255' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/6661292123304084255'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/6661292123304084255'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/2010/03/mark-monkey.html' title='Mark the Monkey!'/><author><name>AdoptedAsHisOwn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03689939037406988587</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8JrbE3WWk9w/TlrlMy7WIjI/AAAAAAAAEH4/qkE8J5PVPEw/s220/familypic3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/S5u22dYtSJI/AAAAAAAADNE/shYQSQaWmbs/s72-c/IMG_3786.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5201018826816507562.post-6400221931198701423</id><published>2010-03-09T15:40:00.008-06:00</published><updated>2010-03-20T07:11:05.507-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='birthdays'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Family'/><title type='text'>Happy 5th Birthday, Grace!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

Tommy and I did the &lt;a href="http://www.awake21.org/"&gt;Awake21&lt;/a&gt; day fast in January which we have been doing for the past several years but this one was different for me. I usually have a specific focus but not this year. I started the fast not knowing really what I was fasting for; however, God showed up bigtime!! This fast he showed me areas I need to improve in, areas so that He can bring me even closer to Him! It has not been the easiest thing to do but I know it is what I am supposed to do! I also have been diving headfirst back in the bible like I used to do before having all the children and wow I missed that more than I knew! I found a great bible app called Logos Bible Software that is free. It has an awesome Text comparison and all the Bible translations, Strong's concordance, study notes and sermons from people from the past. The more I read His word the more I desire more of Him!! Balancing the role as wife, Mom, daughter, sister, friend can be so challenging and overwhelming at times but God would never put anything on my plate that He knows I cannot handle and I can handle all these roles as long as I stay completely connected to Him!!  I also found YouVersion bible reading app (free).  I use this app for my bible reading plan for the year.  As far as taking notes in church, I use the NIV Bible by Tecarta.  I really like the way I can take notes and copy scripture in my notes from this free app.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;So if you have an iphone these bible apps are so awesome! I now get to read the bible in carpool line, while rocking Elijah to sleep for nap, laying in bed with all the lights off as not to disturb Tommy! I had no idea the iphone would be used this much by me! Love it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5201018826816507562-4200929212576436126?l=ampoche.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/feeds/4200929212576436126/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5201018826816507562&amp;postID=4200929212576436126' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/4200929212576436126'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/4200929212576436126'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/2010/02/asa-and-elijah-playing-in-tub-yesterday.html' title=''/><author><name>AdoptedAsHisOwn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03689939037406988587</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8JrbE3WWk9w/TlrlMy7WIjI/AAAAAAAAEH4/qkE8J5PVPEw/s220/familypic3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/S2xVAV1JcpI/AAAAAAAADGM/dJK0C9Z3MC4/s72-c/IMG_0939.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5201018826816507562.post-5083491560623430182</id><published>2010-01-22T13:29:00.007-06:00</published><updated>2010-01-22T14:36:29.008-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Family'/><title type='text'>Love them all!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 267px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429650658631722610" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/S1n-gao1pnI/AAAAAAAADFc/5-EEZ0FyXXQ/s400/IMG_1897.JPG" /&gt; Congratulations, Asa, for making the Principal's List and Honor Roll!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;The other morning, Tommy and Asa were reading the bible together and afterwards Asa came to me and said, &lt;em&gt;"Mom, guess what I am going to be when I grow up?"&lt;/em&gt; I said, &lt;em&gt;"What!"&lt;/em&gt; He said, &lt;em&gt;"a world changer!"&lt;/em&gt; Yes!!

It is reportedly the worst natural disaster in the western hemisphere in the last 200 years. The magnitude of destruction is still unfolding but we can be sure of this – this is a time when the body of Christ has an opportunity to stand up and engage a need by shining the light of hope and the love of Jesus in Haiti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here’s what we’d like to invite you to do with us:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Join Churches Across the World on Monday Night in Prayer For Haiti – Together with Pastor Stovall Weems and Awakening we are making a call for churches everywhere to pray this Monday night for Haiti. We encourage you to invite your church to pray. Open the doors of your church and ask your people to come and pray specifically for Haiti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At Healing Place Church this Monday, January 18 at 7:00 p.m. CST, we’ll host an evening of special prayer for Haiti at our Highland Campus in Baton Rouge, LA. We’ll also stream this event live online here. We encourage you to help spread the word and join in from wherever you are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you’re on twitter, please use the hashtag #pray4Haiti to help spread the word.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Engage the Immediate Needs by Giving – There are two main ways you can give to help the relief effort in Haiti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Give financially.&lt;br /&gt;You can give online at http://healingplacechurch.org/haiti or by giving directly to our partners, Samaritan’s Purse and Joyce Meyer Ministries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Give relief supplies.&lt;br /&gt;If you’re in the Baton Rouge area, you can bring relief supplies (listed below) to:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Healing Place Church Highland Campus&lt;br /&gt;19202 Highland Road in Baton Rouge.&lt;br /&gt;Items will be collected now through Monday, January 18&lt;br /&gt;6:00 a.m. – 9:00 p.m.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those outside the Baton Rouge area, you can send mail your donated items to:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love A Child&lt;br /&gt;Attn: Mike Essman- Haiti Earthquake Medical Donation&lt;br /&gt;9304 Camden Field Parkway&lt;br /&gt;Riverview, FL 33578-0520&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are blessed to have tremendous relationships with ministries that have a long history on the ground in Haiti as well as a wealth of experience in large-scale crisis response. It is through these partnerships that we are able to engage the need in Haiti. Serving together with these ministries in our own experiences of natural disasters and tragedies, we have learned to value their integrity and wisdom very much in these situations. That gives us great confidence that you can trust that what you give will be stewarded well to help the people of Haiti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Prepare for Future Recovery and Rebuilding – These problems Haiti is facing will not go away in just a couple weeks, so we are committed to serving Haiti long-term. We are already beginning to adjust our missions plans for 2010; working in plans to send teams to Haiti to help with the recovery effort. The immediate emergency situation in Haiti doesn’t present an opportunity for us to put teams on the ground to serve. But in 60-90 days, there will be tremendous opportunity for teams to serve in Haiti. Please begin praying, and if you feel it is something God wants you to do, begin preparing to serve on a missions team in Haiti sometime in the next few months. Here’s a look at some of projects we intend to send teams for:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Construction and clean-up&lt;br /&gt;Children’s ministry&lt;br /&gt;Pastoral counseling&lt;br /&gt;Medical care&lt;br /&gt;Cooking and feeding&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have some great relationships with people who have friends and connections on the ground in Haiti. We will be connecting with them in planning our missions trips. Pastors, we want to encourage you to do the same as you plan your own missions trips in these coming months. For example, we’ll be connecting with Celebrate Jesus Haiti – a group that cares for 600-1,000 orphans each day. This ministry is led by the mother of our friend Bill Scheer, pastor of Guts Church in Tulsa, OK.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is moments like these that the body of Christ must work together to engage the need. What better way to communicate the love of our Savior than to respond with hope when people are hurting? And together, we can make a huge difference in this tragic situation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for caring, and for putting that care into action. If you would like further information, please feel free to email Mike Haman or call 225-753-2273.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;LIST OF ITEMS NEEDED&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IMPORTANT: If you’re sending large quantities of supplies, they need to be palletized and shrink-wrapped for shipping, with an inventory of items included.

I look forward to the day after Thanksgiving to start doing everything Christmas and so do our children (now is I can get that way with the shopping then that would be awesome!) Our tree is up and decorated and the stockings are hung by the chimney.... hmmm mmm..... I mean sliding glass door ;) (all except Heidi who took hers home last year). I know, for a Mom who sews you would think we would have some great looking homemade stockings huh? Next year I keep telling myself! no really next year!! The kids don't care though, they just love seeing them hung and their names on them. And so do I! And through all the wish I would have done this and I hope to do this next year..... this family embraces the reason for this season..... the birth of Jesus! I love that our children know the meaning of Christmas and talk about how Jesus' birthday is coming! He is what Christmas is all about for us! Thank you, Lord, for You! The greatest gift we could ever receive.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;And today me and Tommy and GrandMother CC and Grandma and Grampa went to Asa and Rose's school and listened to them sing Christmas carols! Such sweet moments to cherish! We are a blessed family!!

I just thought it would make them smile when they saw it. Well yesterday morning I wrote them another love note that said, &lt;em&gt;"I love you so much!" Love Mommy and Poppy&lt;/em&gt; and put it in the same spot I always put it. But before we left for school Asa came to me with the note in his hand (that he took out of his lunchbox) and smiled and asked if he could not put it in his lunchbox. Well of course my heart dropped and I asked him why and he said because he gets laughed at! WHAT!! He is only 6!! Uuuuuu! "Protective Mommy" kicked in and I wanted to talk to those little children. (Yea, that didn't happen!) So I smiled and said yes he could take it out so that he will not get laughed at (and then I talked to him about life and how the world can be cruel sometimes but we are His children, we are different than the world..... and ...... yes yes, I was on a role with this subject! ;) A little too heavy for him at 6:30a in the morning ;) so I just kissed him and said as long as you know how much I love you. So this morning, I told Tommy what happened and he said that's ok just give him a "cool coded" love note. I said what do you mean. He said make a secret code note. And this is the love note Asa got this morning..... the cool coded love note: &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5413468477185158930" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/SyCA5fFlbxI/AAAAAAAAC20/bGN6oJGIlWM/s400/IMG_6130.JPG" /&gt; &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;"Yo-Asa- You Rock! From Space Woman"&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;secret undercover code for "I love you so much!"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;The rest of the story: When he got in the car he said he didn't eat his lunch I made him because of Pizza Day. I forgot today they had Pizza Day which meant he did not get his love note. I said, "Oh so you didn't get to see my love note to you." He opened his lunchbox and pulled out the note. He read it and then had a big ol'smile on his face! I explained the "secret code" behind that love note.

Thanks, Jenny! these times always make me so stressed! To get everybody to smile and be happy just does not happen with these ages. Again I was wild stressed Mommy but all in all we got a few good ones out of the 347 that were taken!! These are a few pics. The real good ones to come later. One of the family pictures will be our Christmas picture and I have ordered some poster size for our home. I am excited. The only thing I wish is that Heidi is in the pictures. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you Teresa for letting us take pictures at your beautiful home!!!!!!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Much has been going on since my last post a month ago.  My sweet dear 92 year old GrandMother (MawMaw) on my Dad's side of the family passed away on November 8.  Just an awesome faithful woman of God.  I hope to post some pictures of her in a post soon.  And another great woman on my Mom's side: Dee!  I have a little of both in me ;)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5201018826816507562-4290909428493919813?l=ampoche.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/feeds/4290909428493919813/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5201018826816507562&amp;postID=4290909428493919813' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/4290909428493919813'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/4290909428493919813'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/2009/11/family-is-what-we-are-about.html' title='Family is what we are about!'/><author><name>AdoptedAsHisOwn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03689939037406988587</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8JrbE3WWk9w/TlrlMy7WIjI/AAAAAAAAEH4/qkE8J5PVPEw/s220/familypic3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/SwVi-J_BTOI/AAAAAAAAC1s/d24lU7lXRBQ/s72-c/IMG_0465.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5201018826816507562.post-991236558970160701</id><published>2009-10-19T05:16:00.004-05:00</published><updated>2009-10-19T05:20:16.371-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Healing Place Church'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Live the Dream'/><title type='text'>Getting Ready!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://healingplacechurch.org/"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 112px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5394253074665157602" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/Stw8l2f5s-I/AAAAAAAAC0s/usJP7k9mTrU/s400/LTD+logo.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;We are blessed to be able to have a booth at HPC's next Live the Dream Women's conference which is this Thursday-Saturday!

I dropped it off to &lt;a href="http://www.therohners.blogspot.com/"&gt;Stephanie and Randy &lt;/a&gt;yesterday and the party is today!! Happy Birthday, Kylie!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I have been having a little difficulty on school mornings with getting 7 children ready for school to leave at a certain time every morning. I literally was not looking forward to school mornings!! HOWEVER!!!!! I decided to make a chart and give checks and x's to good or bad behavior and IT WORKS!!!!! It has been just a few days but those few days have been awesome and yesterday the children even had 15 minutes to spare and played some games before we left! So awesome! I will let you know if it continues to work!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I finally have one family album I personalized on snapfish! This book is random pictures of 2005-2006. I love it and can't wait to make some more!! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Tree climbing is the thing these days! I love seeing them up in the trees. It reminds me so much of when I was little! I LOVED being in a tree! They are so cute to watch up there! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Baked some chickens the other day and decided to take a picture! The casseroles are great for me but they just don't work for our kiddos or for Tommy! So back to chicken, rice, brocolli and any other simple dish. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I pray all of you are doing great!!!!!  Looks like a little cool front came in last night which any "cool" is welcomed this October.  This has been a really hot October so today it should be in the low 70's which we welcome!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5201018826816507562-2772740567457064539?l=ampoche.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/feeds/2772740567457064539/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5201018826816507562&amp;postID=2772740567457064539' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/2772740567457064539'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/2772740567457064539'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/2009/10/sewing-tree-climbing-school-chart-and.html' title='Sewing, Tree Climbing, School Chart, and Chicken!'/><author><name>AdoptedAsHisOwn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03689939037406988587</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8JrbE3WWk9w/TlrlMy7WIjI/AAAAAAAAEH4/qkE8J5PVPEw/s220/familypic3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/StCChrrmSeI/AAAAAAAAC0k/uWgIfawDkDc/s72-c/IMG_5942.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5201018826816507562.post-5225826632585721141</id><published>2009-09-29T21:03:00.007-05:00</published><updated>2009-09-29T21:30:02.938-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Family'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dentist'/><title type='text'>Birthdays, Farm Day Fun, Dentist visits, and Mommy time!</title><content type='html'>&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5387079595930796770" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/SsLAWbw1wuI/AAAAAAAACzM/oQyTsT8Ui0w/s400/IMG_5911.JPG" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;I have been having a hard time figuring out what to cook so I bought this magazine cookbook and decided to try the tater tot casserole first.

She wanted butterflies so I made her some from construction paper and hung them outside along the back patio and we had a sweet little party! I have to say that this was the first birthday that she loved loved!! She was happy the day before and woke up happy and smiled all day and came home happy and smiled and laughed and clapped for her little party!!!!! I told her we are going to have to celebrate her birthday every day!! HA!! After cake and ice cream the girls made a necklace and bracelet while the boys played in the backyard. Then Zoë opened her presents which she loved all of them!! She then took her balloon and let it go in the sky. This is something we do so that we do not have to take them inside because someone's always pops and then there is an argument and then one gets in the fan so to avoid the drama we make a big deal of letting the balloon go free!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Happy Birthday, Zoë!!  We love you sooooo much!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5201018826816507562-1841551861285195340?l=ampoche.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/feeds/1841551861285195340/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5201018826816507562&amp;postID=1841551861285195340' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/1841551861285195340'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/1841551861285195340'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/2009/09/happy-8th-birthday-zoe.html' title='Happy &quot;8th&quot; Birthday, Zoë!!'/><author><name>AdoptedAsHisOwn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03689939037406988587</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8JrbE3WWk9w/TlrlMy7WIjI/AAAAAAAAEH4/qkE8J5PVPEw/s220/familypic3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/Sp24ZnyrgAI/AAAAAAAACtU/t80oqIxIZFQ/s72-c/IMG_1041.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5201018826816507562.post-2492691830974637210</id><published>2009-08-26T18:01:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2009-08-26T18:13:01.789-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Family'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dentist'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='school'/><title type='text'>School and First trip to Dentist!</title><content type='html'>&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374412081401065970" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/SpW_UCx6cfI/AAAAAAAACsw/w9bt9iItDUs/s400/IMG_5787.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374412091555180402" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/SpW_Uom173I/AAAAAAAACs4/itDAF4hsQqA/s400/IMG_5790.JPG" border="0" /&gt; &lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374412054365889986" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/SpW_SeEOZcI/AAAAAAAACsY/KB29pQPhNgo/s400/IMG_5791.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374412063424677538" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/SpW_S_0AhqI/AAAAAAAACsg/HQeE7zk4mSo/s400/IMG_5794.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374412070374078002" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/SpW_TZs39jI/AAAAAAAACso/7MayDN2rCzQ/s400/IMG_5803.JPG" border="0" /&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rose and Grace had their first trip to the dentist and they were so brave!!

Thanks, Dr. Braun's office!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;School is going great! Asa and Rose love their teachers and they love their friends! The wonderful thing about their friends is that two are their cousins Ethan and Mia.  They come home everyday and tell me how they played with them at recess.  I could not be more excited about their first year at school.  And actually we love all our children's teachers.  Anthony has an awesome teacher who is working hard with Anthony.   Zoë is in a special needs class and her teacher and paraprofessionals are awesome.  She loves them and so do we!  And Henry is in a great Christian high school where he is doing awesome!  We could not be more proud of our children in their school.  Grace will be homeschooled this year K4 Kindergarten.  She is so excited and I expect Elijah will be sitting by her side during "class".  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5201018826816507562-2492691830974637210?l=ampoche.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/feeds/2492691830974637210/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5201018826816507562&amp;postID=2492691830974637210' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/2492691830974637210'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/2492691830974637210'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/2009/08/school-and-first-trip-to-dentist.html' title='School and First trip to Dentist!'/><author><name>AdoptedAsHisOwn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03689939037406988587</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8JrbE3WWk9w/TlrlMy7WIjI/AAAAAAAAEH4/qkE8J5PVPEw/s220/familypic3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/SpW_UCx6cfI/AAAAAAAACsw/w9bt9iItDUs/s72-c/IMG_5787.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5201018826816507562.post-5996632668353718340</id><published>2009-08-14T05:35:00.004-05:00</published><updated>2009-08-14T05:42:02.507-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Family'/><title type='text'>First Week of School!</title><content type='html'>&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369766330955718162" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/SoU-Bxt33hI/AAAAAAAACsQ/87iNCoZNk64/s400/IMG_5713.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I cannot believe this week is already here! They are babies one day and then BOOM they are old enough to go to school!!!!! wow!! They are loving school. This is their first year "in a real school" as Asa says. I homeschooled him for the past two years. I miss them so much during the day! They each have a teacher that I believe is a Godsend and answer to prayer! Rose's teacher adopted her daughter from Guatemala so she has a heart for adoption and an understanding that is so important to us. And Asa's teacher I have known for a while. I taught with her when I was teaching and she was there every step of the way during our adoption journey of Asa! She actually held Asa when he was wee little little..... wait! he was never wee little little!! LOL he was a chunk chunk baby..... all 9 lbs 6 oz!

Yay!! It felt so good to have him catch up and share this birthday with him!!!!! We celebrated, just the two of us, in Disney. Can I say we love Disney! Really!! It is one place that I just get lost in the cartoon characters, atmosphere, food, and people!! Love it! We both wore Happy Birthday Disney buttons but I did take mine off on Sunday so the day could be Tommy-focused! The Disney staff are the most courteous and so friendly and we always have the best food! And how can we do all this with so many children? Well, family is the best!! Tommy's Mom and Dad got up 4:00a early and came over until my Mom came over. Mom Trixie and Pop took Henry and Anthony and my Mom was with all the rest!! Many many thanks Moms and Pop for letting us run off together to Disney! Wonderful wonderful trip!! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Great memories: Toy Story (I am a Cosmic Commando at 741,000), Splash Mountain, Lava Cake, up at 5a and not seeing the room again for 13-14 hours later, watching all the people, Everest 4 times, Rockin Roller Coaster, Steamboat ride, One Man's Dream (my favorite story), Beauty and the Beast, the Muppets 3D, Mickey's Phil Harmonic 3D, It's a Small World (favorite too), Hall of Presidents (ok, slipped into sleep couple times), Carousel of Progress (appreciating it more each time but still doze off), Street comedy, the roses, the cola's around the world tasting, Soarin!!, (the land/hydroponics tour closed. I love that one!), lots lots more, and of course spending day and night with just Tommy and no interuptions!! Thanks, Tommy, for a great trip! I am so in love with you! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5201018826816507562-3089601542278599674?l=ampoche.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/feeds/3089601542278599674/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5201018826816507562&amp;postID=3089601542278599674' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/3089601542278599674'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/3089601542278599674'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/2009/08/happy-40th-birthday-tommy.html' title='Happy 40th Birthday, Tommy!'/><author><name>AdoptedAsHisOwn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03689939037406988587</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8JrbE3WWk9w/TlrlMy7WIjI/AAAAAAAAEH4/qkE8J5PVPEw/s220/familypic3.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/SoIxJnCQ_gI/AAAAAAAACsI/uOncCQQG5D0/s72-c/IMG_5668.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5201018826816507562.post-805374131831984209</id><published>2009-08-04T13:49:00.006-05:00</published><updated>2009-08-04T14:04:49.072-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Family'/><title type='text'>Birthday Blessings!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;"I command you--be strong and courageous!

As hard as it was to swallow, God showed up and encouraged me and carried me "over this hill!" I still don't know how I got here and why all of a sudden I am getting "Mrs." Aimee' and yes ma'ams! I want to tell people that if you are within 20 years of my age please spare the ma'am and Mrs. So much for Southern Hospitality. I can surely do without some of those! HA!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;And in a way only God would do it, He managed to first encourage me with Joshua 1:9 which I desperately needed and then He very creatively reminded me of all the scriptures of my 30's that shaped my last decade! John 10:10, Jeremiah 29:11, Hebrew 11, Psalm 139! Only God would be so specific !! I felt so loved by Him on my birthday! &lt;em&gt;Thanks, God!! And thanks to my family who are a huge blessing in my life!! &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366183366637367602" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_hDflqpVUw6I/SniDVzgHsTI/AAAAAAAACq4/7JS6EfQ9jzs/s400/IMG_5632.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And Yay!!

We just finished up Vacation Bible School at &lt;a href="http://www.healingplacechurch.org/"&gt;HealingPlaceChurch&lt;/a&gt;. I volunteered in the CRAZY and LOUD snack tent while all our little ones enjoyed water games, singing, dancing, crafts, and learning about Jesus! Yay!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Yesterday was Rock the River. I volunteered in a hot dog vendor while Tommy took the little ones to visit Grandma and Grampa. Me and Henry and Anthony got to hear some great music while doing that! Henry and Anthony went their own way and had some fun with some friends. It was super hot but wow to see all the people come together and rock for Jesus was awesome. Governor Bobby Jindal gave a great talk, Mayor Kip Holden was great and then Franklin Graham was amazing. Just like his Dad the message is simply you need Jesus! What a great event in our city!! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Oh, and I had to add the picture of Elijah's sweet time on the chair playing in the sink water.  I looked over from being at our island and saw those cute little legs and instantly thought about how fast they grow!  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5201018826816507562-5457111853530830841?l=ampoche.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/feeds/5457111853530830841/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=5201018826816507562&amp;postID=5457111853530830841' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/5457111853530830841'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5201018826816507562/posts/default/5457111853530830841'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ampoche.blogspot.com/2009/07/busy-summer.html' title='Busy Summer!'/><author><name>AdoptedAsHisOwn</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/036899
