Kids

I have two kids of my own. An almost two year old and a brand new baby. I was recently reading a blog and was reading a story of a mom who lost her baby. The sad part was my baby was born 7 days later. It makes me wonder that even though I had a very difficult pregnancy. Why did God gift me with my little boys and take the lives of others? I constantly ask God that very question. I use to always complain that why did I have two boys when all I wanted was a little girl. I don't ask that question anymore! I have come to realize that there are many people in this world that would give anything to hold there baby for more than just a couple days or maybe even just a few seconds. I should be grateful that God has blessed me with two handsome little boys everyday. I should wake up in the morning and say " Thank you God for my awesome little boys." I guess I was just so sick that I didn't know how to tell God I was thankful or maybe I just needed to say I don't understand know but hopefully one day I will. The bible says in James 4:14. Whereas ye know not what [shall be] on the morrow. For what [is] your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. Which to me means you don't know what will happen tomorrow or even if you will have it, so be thankful and do your best with what u have today. So be thankful for what u have. What is hard for me to remember is that in the bible it also says that in everything give thanks. So when you look at what God has given you tell him THANK YOU.

Red Hair

So many people say that they would love to have red hair. Well when I was growing up I would always get picked on for my hair. Children can be so mean sometimes. I would be called names from a carrot top to the torch of the statue of liberty. This always made me feel bad. I think the worst thing I was ever called was a red headed step child. I always took offense to that one. "It's not easy being me" I would always say. I could never stay out in the sun to long because I would get burnt ,and that's hard to do living in Florida. I remember one time when I was little my mom came down to see me and we went swimming at our hotel in Orlando before we got on the plane the next day. I was out side for possibly an hour and I was one crispy kid I looked like a lobster literally I was blistered from head to toe and I had to ride on a plane the next day. So next time u look at some one that has red hair always remember that u don't know what they have to go through and that u may have life pretty good. Always remember to be thank full for what God has given you no matter what.
