As I type all three are nestled in my bed {waiting for the blueberry muffins I’m about to make}… I often wonder if they know just how much I love them? I hope that each of you find a warm cozy place to snuggle today {and something warm to drink} and that you too will feel loved.
“This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.” 1 John 4:10

January 16, 2009 at 7:48 ami will be traveling down to your neck of the woods for a short 24 hours…alone! i’m not brave enough to bring them alone for what ends up being a 6 hour trip. especially since lil sis doesn’t think it necessary to sleep in the car. i wish i could meet you and see those precious faces in person. another trip. i love the hair twistin.

January 16, 2009 at 8:25 amThey know you love them. Just keep on loving them and holding them tight and praying for them. When they become teenagers it is a whole new ballgame! Take it from someone who knows!
Have a Blessed Day,

January 16, 2009 at 8:34 amGood morning to all of you! Blueberry muffins sound delicious right now!! I’ve made 5 batches of blueberry muffins in the last couple of weeks…just for me and Russell! 🙂 I tell him, “You can have all the leftover ones, but they’re gone before he knows it!” Hee hee!
Oh, Darby, I’m thankful that you’ve failed miserably at posting without words! I know you take that the right way! 😉 Too many of us like to know (need to know??? :)) what’s going on in the life of the Stickler’s.
Y’all are wonderful, and, indeed, praise the Lord that He loved us so that we may love one another.
You can pray for my sinuses to not bother me during my sleep at night and that I’ll sleep better, according to the Lord’s will, these last pregnancy days. I woke up and took a shower this morning to go back to bed for a nap! 🙂 I feel better rested, but groggy. Heading to work now!
Love you, friend.
P.S. Russell and Ryan are camping tonight! It’s going into the teens, girl…I’ll be thankful to be at home in a warm bed! 😉 Sleeping by myself…more room in the bed…and sleeping in. Hee hee!

January 16, 2009 at 8:35 amP.S. Yes, your little ones KNOW how much their mommy loves them!! They learn a little more about that each day! 🙂
