simply give...it up!

simply...give it up! 

does that mean what you think it means!??!?! yep! you could say this may be simply ....whats the word? inappropriate! but you'd be surprised how many people need to hear this! ;) as a hairdresser/woman, i kinda hear it all! even if i don't want to! lol there are so many married couples who don't make each other a priority! sometimes our spouses are the last on the list! well, change this tonight! make sure you make time for your lova and show them how special they are to you ! we are so consumed everyday with our kids, jobs, even simple household duties we put our spouse on the back burner. i know we are sometimes exhausted  after a long day, but drink that cup of joe at 6 pm so you will be wide awake when your kids go to bed and have a nice romantic time with your hunny! and you know all those hours you spent cuddling under the blankets when you were dating even in the summer time, (you know what i'm talking about), well, make sure you do the same tonight! owww owww! 

a baby and a butcher block....yikes!

so, i signed up to do a little family blog, and went to sign in and forgot my password! so i decided to write this on simply give!

craziest story ever, right here! 

as parents we seems to always be worrying about our kiddos! here is something that you can do,( if you are not already doing this) to put your mind at ease (at least a bit)! 

first, here's the story:

hunter and i were hanging out at home, it was time for our lovely afternoon nap! i was 6 months pregnant and was always so sleepy! that day, i must of been extra sleepy ! i cuddled up to my adorable little 18 month old and i guess, passed out pretty quick! i woke up to hear hunter screaming and crying at the top of his lungs! 

i bolted down the stairs and found:

this adorable baby boy

sitting on here:

the little ornery guy pushed the chair up to the stove!

with these all around him:

ahhhhhhh!!!!

look at these suckers!

oh.my.gosh! i screamed, it scared the crap out of me! i thought, "did he cut his finger off?"........" did he turn on the stove and he is sitting on a hot burner?" ...after i thought "what if he fell off the stove and landed on the butcher knife?"

PRAISE THE LORD that he had not one cut or scratch on him!!!!

now, that is a miracle! a baby getting into a butcher block and not cutting himself!!!!

i felt like the WORST MOTHER EVER!  everyone that knows hunter and i, knows that i have always had to watch him like a hawk! i never let him out of my sight! how could i let this happen??!?!?

now, i look back and think about something that makes me the best mother ever.....and that is this:

every single bingle night i pray this over my kids:

dear heavenly father, i come to you in Jesus name, i thank you for protection and safety over hunter (and or carter), i pleed the blood of Jesus over him (them) for safety and protection, i charge the angles to encamp around him (them) that no harm will come near them

i am so thankful that i do this, seriously, what would/could of happened that day?

thank God for his protection and saftey!!!!

this is a small but mighty prayer you can pray over your kids, husband, wife, girlfriend, boyfriend or whoever you want!!!
