Angel Baby

Here is a picture of Bella on her blessing afghan. It is a guardian angel, she is laying on the body of the angel with the wings out to her sides. There is a really cool story behind it. I dont tell it very well but I'll try.
I have been given blankets for all my other kids but hadnt received one for Bella. So I told my "other mother", Jo, and she mentioned it to one of her niece's. So Gloria, her niece, searched for a pattern and couldnt find one. Then she had this book and it just fell open to this pattern. This was just before my brother died. She was able to finish the blanket the day he died, which was also the week we blessed her. So she had her guardian angel there. I sent her up with the blanket in remembrance of Kirk, sort of a stand in for him. Him and Angie had planned on coming up to the blessing but he decided to go on an eternal flight instead.=) So there it is, not as good as when I was told the story but it really means alot to me. I will post more pics of the blanket and Bella another time.

It's almost spring!!

Well, not a whole lot of new stuff going on. The rock chucks are out, I hear tell there are meadowlarks a singin', though I havent heard any yet myself. I am so happy. I dont like to be cold. I think I am finally caught up on my school work from the funeral. Spring break is next week. Hopefully I'll be able to relax for a couple days, and maybe get ahead a little. The kids are growing like weeds, especially the babe. She is smiling now and it's so fun to watch her. Ryan will be able to process his orders next week so we'll be able to start getting our move to Oklahoma all figured out here soon. Brianna's birthday is in less than 2 weeks. She is going to be 7!! Wow, I can believe how time flies. Anyhoo, that's about all for now. I need to post some pics of the kids. Next week, next week........=)

In remembrance.....

I dont really have a lot to say on this, I just want to post this link for anyone that might read it and be willing to help out in any way. My brother, Kirk Babbitt, died in a plane crash on Antelope Island in Utah on March 3, 2009. He died doing what he loved so that is always a plus I guess. Anyways, my cousin put together a website, it is very nice. There is a link for donations. So anyone that reads this and is able to help it would be greatly appreciated. He left behind a wife and 3 children. Take a minute to read the obituary, it is beautiful.
