My annual treat is having Toni Elmer take Molly's photos on her B-day. Timmy's B-day is next Sunday so guess what we are doing next Saturday! Treated twice a year now! Sweet M laid down with me last night and said hold me momma and sing. I think I sang Once Upon a Dream about 10 times. These days go way too fast for me!

Twice a Year

Small but Mighty
Timmy had a fever yesterday. Bob took him to Acute Care in Plano. His oxygen saturation was low so they rushed him in an ambulance to Children's Plano. It was protocol for anyone with his stats. Timmy's oxygen saturation is lower than most children his age and size. This is due to his heart condition. So, after it was all said and done we left the hospital with the diagnosis of an ear infection. Poor little guy was traumatized for that! He was put on oxygen, had both ears irrigated and got a catheter for a urine test. :( Sad stuff. The nurses couldn't believe how strong he was for his size. GO BUDDY! It took 4 of us to hold him down for the procedures. Agghhhh! Tomorrow we will get a note from the cardiologist stating what his normal is so that this will be avoided in the future.
On an up note....while we were there he was crying Uma (which is Mom in Korean). I felt so sad for him because he wanted his foster mom. Bob said, Amy he is talking about YOU. I didn't buy it at first. Then on the way home he said Uma to me about 100 times. Every time he said it I would answer yes and he would laugh. We stopped at 7-11 too and bought him some oreos, his favorite. He kept saying yummmmm! When we turned in the drive way at home he starting laughing and clapping. He was so happy to be home. Little by little he is learning to trust us and make sense of his world. I LOVE HIM!!!!

Uncle David
Uncle Pat just sent me this pic of me and Uncle David. I have a lot of family members, LOL! Uncle D was the closest to my Dad. I struggle at this time of year because my Dad takes up about 99% of my brain. To post or not post about him, to talk or not talk about him, to tell others I'm thinking of him, to think about how 5 years later I shouldn't be thinking of him so much. Well, this year I'm just gonna embrace it and go from there. How did I get off on this tangent??? Well, David looks a ton like my Dad (body language and all) so it's comforting to see this pictures since I don't have any recent pics of Timmy Boy (yes, we called him that when joking around). Love you Uncle David and Dad! Miss you Dad........uggggh! I miss seeing you so much and wish you were here to meet your grandaughter and grandson (namesake) Timmy!
Carousel
Tim Tim rode the carousel too but he didn't love it! Molly asked me to stand on the side and wave to her as she went around. Reallly, it was fun because each time she saw me it was like she hadn't seen me all day :)

Together
It's a challenge to get both kids in one picture together. Last night we took them to the = Mall for CPK, the carousel and a visit to the Disney store. L-O-V-E these two!!! Gosh, I just love them!
THANK YOU!!!!
Our friend Kari (though a blog) sent the kiddos a care package this weekend. It came at just the right time. Molly has hand, foot, mouth virus and she was down. That is one gross infection! When the Cinderella doll came out of the box she said, OH MY and gave the package a kiss. Timmy loves his toys and treats too! Thank you Ryan and Kari!

HE IS RISEN!
S.M. Lockridge Sermon
S.M. Lockridge was an African American, evangelical preacher. From what I have read he preached this sermon without any notes. There is a video of the sermon but I can't upload it. Awesome when you can hear the real thing! I wish I could make it the buzzer on my alarm clock. HE is RISEN INDEED!

The Bible says my KING is the king of the Jews
He is the KING of Israel
He's the KING of righteousness
He's the KING of the ages
He's the KING of heaven
He's the KING of glory
He's the KING of kings and he's the Lord of Lords
THAT'S MY KING!
I wonder do you know him?
My KING is a sovereign king
No means of measure can define his limitless love
He's enduringly strong
He's eternally steadfast
He's immortally graceful
He's imperially powerful
He's impartially merciful
Do you know him?
He's the greatest phenomenon that has ever crossed the horizon of this world
He's God's son
He's a sinner's savior
He's the centerpiece of civilization
He's unparalleled
He's unprecedented
He is the loftiest idea in literature
He's the highest personality in philosophy
He's the fundamental doctrine of true theology
He's the only one qualified to be an all sufficient savior
I wonder, do you know him?
He supplies strength for the week
He's available for the tempted and the tried
He sympathizes and sustains
He guards and he guides
He heals the sick
He cleansed the lepers
He forgive sinners
His discharges debtors
He delivers the captive
He defends the feeble
He blesses the young
He serves the unfortunate
He regards the aged
He rewards the diligent and he beautifies the meager
I wonder if you know him?
He's the key to knowledge
He's the wellspring of wisdom
He's the doorway of deliverance
He's the pathway of peace
He's the roadway of righteousness
He's the highway of holiness
He's the gateway of glory
Do you know him?
His life is matchless
His goodness is limitless
His mercy is everlasting
His love never changes
His word is enough
His grace is sufficient
His reign is righteous
And his yoke is easy and his burden is light
I wish I could describe him to you
He's indescribable
He's incomprehensible
He's invincible
He's irresistible
You can't get him out of your mind
You can't get him off of your hand
You can't out live him and you can't live without him
The Pharisees couldn't stand him but they found out the couldn't stop him
Pilot couldn't find any fault in him
Herod couldn't kill him
Death couldn't handle him and the grave couldn't hold him!

Gotcha in Seoul!
Here are the pics from the day we "got" Timmy in Seoul. We went to pick him up at the SWS offices and these pics are from our room at the SWS guest house. He was happy the whole day until he had to go to bed. He cried for five hours straight that night. So much grief for a little guy. Ugggggh! He ended up watching Yo Gabba Gabba on the ipad for a few hours and then passing out.
