Kyson Xavier Kent has arrived!!!
After 39 weeks and 3 days our boy has arrived. We arrived at the hospital at 5:45 AM and started the prep work for the C-section. At 7:40 the knife came out, and at 7:50 the doctor pulled the beautiful new baby boy out. He measures 6 lb. 6 oz. and 19 inches long. He has a little bit of hair, not quite as much as his older brother. Anyway, here are a couple photos that can do a little more justice than I can type. They still don't do enough, you have to see this little angel in person to be able to know how much of an angel he is.
Darci is now doing ok, she is in pain of course, but she was a trooper and has done fantastic. She is a great mother and knows just what she needs to do. I sure love that woman!!!!
There is a light at the end of the tunnel!
After much stress and even a nap during the exam. Tyler finally passed the 3rd section of the CPA exam. Now there is only one more section to pass and he is finally a CPA!!!!
Mothers
A baby asked God, 'They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?' God said, 'Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you.'
The child further inquired, 'But tell me, here in heaven I don't have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy.' God said, 'Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy.'
Again the child asked, 'And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don't know the language?' God said, 'Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak.'
'And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?' God said, 'Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray.' 'Who will protect me?' God said, 'Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life.'
'But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore.' God said, 'Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you.'
At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, 'God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel's name.' God said, 'You will simply call her, 'Mom.
A Thousand Splendid Suns
I am not an extremist; I am not the type of person to be overly-patriotic and make a show of it, or to burn my bra and hate men, but reading this book made me realize just how good we have it here comparatively. A lot of people like to complain about our government, and politicians annoy me to no end-- but it could be worse, a lot worse. I was shocked at how recent the events described in this book occurred (some still going on). Afghanistan seems like such a far away place, that I guess I hadn't connected the dots. It isn't often I read a book that affects me this way- it really made me think about how blessed I am to live where I live, be educated, have freedom, security, and a loving husband.
