HAPPY 3RD BIRTHDAY ADDIE KATE

Well...I am a little behind YES, but here it is! Addie Kate turned 3 on March 19th! We celebrated her birthday at Chuck E Cheese on March 17th!
 
What a BitterSweet Day it was! It was so much fun seeing her play with family and friends, but yet so sad that shes not a baby anymore. Brought many tears to my eyes to know that she is growing up! She is such a fun loving little girl and has such a bright future ahead of her!

LONG WEEK.......

So this past week since last Friday 02/15 has been pretty long!!!! I have adjusted to having a wonderful man around that LOVES me and Addie unconditionally!!!He had to travel for work this past week to Orlando...only the most Magical place on earth since it is Mickey and Friends, and the Princesses home!!!! Sad we could not make this trip but there is always next year!!! Adam will be home tomorrow!

Anyways AK went to her Dad's Monday and comes home today!!! She has been very upset being over there and I have had to endure her pain of crying each night to come home! I am so ready for her to be home as she is ready to be home as well! :)

So the past few days have been long and hard! I did get to enjoy a dinner and movie girls night with Adam's mom and I just loved it! I love that I can have another Mom to hang out with and do girl things! She is the best! I am going to keep her!!!!!

We have a fun weekend planned for all of us! A little Family time together and a Date Night!!! Yeah for fun times for everyone!


I will leave you with Adam's little LOVE saying to me before he ever hangs up the phone, or leaves.....

I LOVE you with all my heart and if I had 2 hearts I would love you with that one too!!!!

HOW DID I GET SOOO LUCKY?

So...everyone knows that I went through a very bad year and a half in life recently! It's no secret! Life was changed for Addie Kate and I in a bad way!!! I thought during this time that my life was horrible, wanted to crawl in a hole and die, the only thing I had to live for at this point was my precious daughter Addie Kate and I did EVERYTHING in my power to protect her from this awful event in life!

Well I turned to God because afterall he knew what he was doing and he was the only one that could make me better. I cried myself to sleep many of nights praying that he was doing the right thing and that he would bring a loving husband, and father into our lives. Someone that wanted to be a Godly man to our home, be a dad and enjoy family fun, someone that wanted children and someone that most of all LOVED me for ME and not this model like person someone that would love Addie Kate as if it was their own child! Many prayers, many tears, many arguments with family and friends telling them they would never understand my pain and many prayers asking God WHY ME..WHY ME???

All the while God had the PERFECT PLAN in store for Addie and I! This past October he brought Adam DeCrow into our lives! WOW...did he listen to all my tears and pleas! He found the man I have prayed for! Adam is a loving man that loves his family so much and wants his own family, he loves me for me, he loves AK with all his heart and he was raised in the church and wants a christian home for his family!!! A man like this does exist and its the best thing that could have happened for us! The first time I met his whole family on Thanksgiving Day you would have thought we would have know each other for years....that's how wonderful they all were and they have not stopped loving AK and I!!! I am forever grateful for this man!!!

Thank You Lord for hearing my feeble cry and teaching me to believe in you because you are the one and only you are the Lord Supreme and over all!!!!


I am so happy!

VALENTINES ~ 2013

Happy Valentines! What a SPECIAL day it was. Adam had the day off because he is leaving for a work trip to Orlando and will be home February 21st! So we talked about meeting for lunch at Lenny's! No Biggie Right?! Well, I had to work yesterday, and right around 10:45 guess who appears in my office???? ADAM DECROW!!!!! I had to take a doiuble take! LOL He was standing there with flowers, a teddy bear and a card!!! PRICELESS and made me feel on TOP OF THE WORLD!!!! No one has ever suprised me this way....it was the MOST SPECIAL MOMENT!!!!!! I could not stop smiling and laughing out of disbelief that he did this for me!!!! So as planned we went to lunch together! We returned back to the office and he got to have the GRAND TOUR of our manufacturing palnt to see what I do at work all day long! It was great getting to spend a couple of hours with him during the day even more special this was his whole idea!!! So...I must tell you he had a wonderful person help him out on his plan that happened the night before while we were at the Memphis Tigers basketball game with the owner of my company and his wife!!! Even more sneaky is he...I will be watching him!!!! Adam talked to Mrs. Gaye while I was in the bathroom to get JC's number. Adam then got him mom to call me to step out so I could hear her and talk to her for like 20 minutes we talked about sooo much! I just love her but she was behind this too! LOL All the while I had no idea!!! So while I was gone Adam and JC talked about him coming up here to bring me my Valentines suprise! :) I give him LOADS and LOADS of brownie points!

After I left work I went to get Addie from school and took her to McDoanlds for dinner! She stayed with YaYa while Adam and I enjoyed a nice dinner at Longhorn Steak House! Yum..Yum! Not too bad of a wait and EXCELLENT Customer Service I might add! I gave Adam his Valentines gift which was a Picture Book that I put together of us from the day we met! It captured all the moments that him, Addie Kate and I have shared together! It brought tears to his eyes and I was so happy to see that he loved it as much as I loved creating it! I also bought him a new picture frame of us for his office! Love Pictures and Love having these moments with him! Adam bought AK a Mickey and she was in LOVE!!! She loves her Mickey and Friends. I got her Cinderella and she was soo excited!
After we picked Addie up we went home and did the normal evening routine! It was so nice to share this day with the one that I love and have him at home with us!

Adams parents got Addie and I Valentines Gifts too! We get to have a McDonalds dinner night! Can't wait....because Addie likes going there to play! So it will be a special evening one night! I just love his parents and so does Addie Kate! They treat us so nice and love us unconditionally! They are just the perfect family to bring us in! They are loving and welcoming. After I thank Mrs. Peggy for our gifts she said, "Of Course Yall are one of us now"! Can I just tell you what this meant to me and made my heart just melt! I love this family beyond measure!

Here are a few pictures of my suprise on Valentines Day! (Addie did not want her picture taken yesterday so I picked my battle and did not force her!!!)

NEW BEGINNINGS....

Mine and Addie's lives have changed a little since I have posted in June 2012! Alot has happened since then.....

A wonderful man has came into our lives and I thank God for him each and every day. God has given me the opportunity to love and be loved once again. God has brought a male.fatherly role figure into Addie's life and I couldn't be happier! Addie Loves Adam so much and he loves her more than life itself! I never thought this day would come that I could feel so much LOVE again....but it has. The prayers, tears, and wisdom have all paid off. The Decrow family is so loving and caring and welcoming of Addie Kate and I. I really thought this transition into a new life and family would be very hard for Addie and I but I am wrong and I am happy that I am wrong. This family loves us unconditionally and I can't ask for a better family to be loved by!


We had a wonderful Thanksgiving and Christmas Holiday Season! Addie was an angel in her Christmas Program at school and sang her songs wonderfully! She had so many people there to see her perform and she was excited to see everyone! We spent the night at mom's on Christmas Eve this year which was new for us..but FUN! Made me bring back childhood memories of waking up and seeing my toys as a kid! We were able to spend time with ADam's family on Christmas Eve as well and then spend all day together on Christmas! What wonderful memories we all made together as a family!

New Years Eve was alot of fun this year for Addie and I both! She got to spend the evening with Miss. Ashley! Sheloves Miss. Ashley from church and she was soo sweet to babysit and have fun with AK so that Mommy could go out this year! I have not been out in a long time so this was a REAL TREAT! Adam and I went to dinner with several other couples and then went to Fox and the Hound to RING in the NEW YEAR...2013! We had so much fun!

Addie has grown up so much, if you don't see her regularly you would wonder where the sweet little baby has gone! She is now going on the BIG GIRL Potty! She would not go when I was ready she started when she was ready! Thank GOD because I thought this day would never come! She has done GREAT and I am so proud of her!

Valentines Day is approaching this week and you can just see the LOVE in the AIR around our home! My LOVE for Addie is endless and I love this kid more than anything! She is my rock. I have added to my love this year and that is Adam. He just coompletes me in many ways. We are going to go to dinner on Valentines Day and then pick AK up and go home! Life is great with these 2 loves in my life!

Soooo..that catches you up just a little bit to whats been going on in our life! I promise to try and stay more up to date!







Till next time.....
