Wordless Wednesdays - Fishing fun!

This is an Almost Wordless Wednesday!

We have been doing some fishing the last few evenings. This was Emily's first time and she has a new princess fishing pole (there is not a real hook on it!). The fish that we caught were pretty small but we had fun and enjoyed the beautiful spring evening. By the way, I caught the first fish this night and it ended up being the biggest! :)

Such a big girl.

She knows what she is doing!

Prayer Request

Please pray for my sister-in-law Serena. I got a call tonight from my mom that she went to the ER today, having problems with her asthma. She had also been complaining of "heartburn" or some chest pain the last few days. Turns out after she got to the ER, that she has a blood clot in her lung!! They also had to do some breathing treatments on her as well. They admitted her and won't let her leave until the clot is gone. She had this problem a few years ago too. I will know more tomorrow and update at that time.

So when your saying your prayers, say an extra one please.

Thanks.

Friends with the ex?

My cutie pie stepson Brayden!

I get this question all the time! You actually get along with your husband's ex wife?

The answer is yes! Now I will admit she is far from being my best friend, but we get along great. I decided a long time ago that not getting along with her was not an option. It really is the best thing for my stepson Brayden. He needs to see the adults/parents/stepparents functioning normally (whatever that is). We usually talk to each other every few days about schedules, school, sports or just to chit chat about mom things.

I guess I was really thinking about this today because Brayden's real mom (I am his mom too as he likes to inform me and others) is having a baby on Wednesday morning. I will be taking Brayden to the Hospital after school to meet his newest baby sister! (isn't that nice of me) I of course get to hold the baby too, which is a bonus! (and will probably only worsen the urge to have another, sorry Kyle)

I would like to encourage anyone who is in the same situation to really try to get along with the ex. It really is the best thing for the child involved!

Anyone else doing this too??
