This past month has been a blurrr! Brandon started back school, Mark has been working none stop, Addie and I joined a Kindermusik class and a Mom 2 Mom bible study going through the book " 5 love languages of children". Addie had her 4 month shots alst week! OUCH! She is in the 75% of her age group...said another way is that she does not miss any meals!We are trying to get our house ready to be put on the market. PRay for GOd to guide us in selling our house. Apt life awaits us until we get our next hosue built.... SO much to look forward to...... We have been through some family struggles this past week and I am still recouperating..... Lots of counseling and prayer is where we are at right now. It is so hard to make a new family out of two completely different families. Addison is the ray of light that i get to look at anytime i am down and i quickly remember how blessed I am. She was dedicated Sunday and it was a relief to be reminded that God is in control of her life not I but i do play a significant part so I have to live my life selflessly. I am looking for the days were we are striving and not just surviving....

The weather keeps going back and forth so my nose has been running for weeks...yuck!

I have been overwhelmed with the fear of being prego again .... no worries b/c i am not! :) I thank JESUS for letting me be home with my precious angel! Have a great rest of the week!

i have learned an important lesson this weekend. Dont make important decisions and act on them without consulting with your spouse because he/she could have an incite that you have not even thought about. Always forgive when your forgiveness is requested, and don't go outside the issue when addressing an issue. I am learning how hard it is to be a wife and a parent. I was lied about by two people this weekend and after defending myself I accomplished nothing more than i could have by being quite and letting the truth set me free. My parents are good supports and came bearing dinner to watch the patriots vs the jaguars .... may the patriots never see the superbowl 2008!!!

Addison is finally starting to sleep through the night! That
is a change that i am rejoicing over!
It is a new year but some things do not seem to change ....
I hope that I will have the strength to change for the better
regardless of what others may choose.
The three Rs I challenge you with......
Respect for self, Respect for others, and Responsibility for your
own actions (and reactions).....
I have to remember that when there is one set of footprints
He has not left me but rather He is carrying me!

All of the pictures below are a small recap of the past year when we became the Eskew Family! Our Blog will pick up and follow our lives from January 2008 on.... We look foward to sharing a part of our lives with you! Enjoy the recap below!

Welcome 2008!

The Eskew family has gone from two bachelors in the beginning of 2007 to a Dad, Mom, son, and daughter. We are so grateful for the blessings a family brings! Here are a few of our memories from the transition of individuals to a family unit! Happy New Year!
