Picture day at school. They both just had to have new outfits. Connor surprised me by wanting a tie! I wonder who he's trying to impress? So handsome and beautiful. So proud to have wonderful kids (most of the time).

Karlea's first Alabama game! She had a great time and was such a good girl! Very proud to have such good kids!

First day of school! I now have a 3rd grader and a kindergartener. Wow how time flies! I pray they both have a good year and make lots of friends. I pray that they will remember to be Christ like and always do the right thing. I love you Connor and Karlea!

Girls just wanna have fun!

Connor and Brandon decided to go deep sea fishing. Us girls did some hanging out. We played in the pool and then decided to hang out for supper at The Hangout! Good times. I need to do this with Connor some too and let Karlea hang with her dad.

So we are in Gulf Shores. It's cloudy and has been raining. There's a 60% chance of rain today. What a lovely vacation! Hopefully, the sun will come out sometime VERY soon!

So I am trying mobile blogging. Want to see if this works!

Mr. Peacock. Oh, I mean Mr. Cox!

So, we went to the lake yesterday. We had a good time. We ate lunch with my family for Father's Day. It was a really great day. After eating and giving out presents, we had some friends come up (Eric and Brianna) and rode the boat for a while. I think we all had a good time.

After riding for a little while, we stopped to let the big and little kids swim for a while. Once we stopped, I looked up across from me and there he was....Mr.Peacock! I had to take a picture of course. Some days I could just eat him up and some days.....not so much! But I love him anyway.

Where have I been?

So, my last post was in August 2010. It is now March 2011. Needless to say, it's been busy around the Cox home. School, work, church, hobbies, and now baseball. Karlea has decided she wants to play t-ball. Connor at first, said he didn't want to play, and now he does. Yay! I really don't mind them playing but I don't know how I'm going to be in two places at once. I know someone can get one or the other to where they need to be but I'm a mom. I want to be able to see both of them. It breaks my heart. How do I choose where to be? I can't. I don't know how moms with more than one do it. Where do you go? How do you decide? I just don't know what to do. Of course their first games are the same day at the same time and of course in different places. I'm just not sure I'm up for this just yet. Besides this fact, Karlea also is gymnastics. Of course her first game is the same day she has gymnastics. I told them both once they started there would be no quitting. But, I really wish one would say, I really don't want to play. How could I go back on my word for my selfishness? Oh well, surely something (hopefully God) will work this out.

It is spring break. We are going on a cruise to Cozumel, Mexico on Thursday. Not one time have I worried about being on a ship in the middle of the ocean. Until this weekend. Japan was hit by an earthquake, which caused a tsunami. Now, I AM WORRIED!. Of course I have already begun to pray for God to keep us safe and well. I guess if it happens, it is just our time. Brandon,Connor and I are all saved. But Karlea, 4, is another concern. We just talked about last week about children and what would happen if they died and were not saved. I'm talking about a 4 year old who doensn't know yet about salvation. Yes, she knows who Jesus is and what he did. But really, she doesn't understand. So, does that mean that God would spare her from hell because she doesn't understand and hasn't deliberately rejected Him? I'm hoping so. I don't know all the ins and outs of the Bible. We talked about this last weekend and I'm not really sure what to think. As a mom, I'm just praying that if Karlea were to die right now she would go to Heaven. Surely God would know, even though she's a sinner, that she hasn't rejected Him. So, please pray for us- safety and health. I pray that we see and apreciate God's beauty while on our cruise.
