Leap of Faith!!!

Well to all of you who know me well; know that I am a huge worry wart. I worry about everything and often have stomachaches because I am worring so much. Anyways.....My husband has finally talked me into putting our house on the market. We have been talking about it forever. We were going to do it last year, but I kept postponing it. Then with the way the economy was at the first of the year we(I)decided to wait a little longer. Well March 30th was the day. We signed the papers and our house is offically on the market. We(I) would greatly appreciate that if you know anyone looking for a cute house in the middle of Washington send them our way. Our house really is great and I love it, but we out grew it a long time ago. Thanks for listening and I hope that you are all doing well. Love ya.

The Promise was a huge success!!!!!

The last performance of the Promise was on Saturday and yesterday we tore all of the sets down and cleaned up all the mess. It was definetly a stressful, yet fun week. We had really late nights and early mornings but we made it through. Hayleigh has made a ton of new friends that I am sure she will keep her whole life. I will include some pics of us last week. I hope that all of you are happy and healthy. Love ya all.

PRAY

Please pray for Andrea Boes, her family, and friends. She is a very strong and inspirational woman who has fought cancer for so long and it seems that God has put her to the end of the long endless battle. I can't imagine what all she has gone through and she always thinks of others before herself. She spent time with her family last night to say her goodbyes and she is so strong. I pray for her peace because I can't not imagine saying goodbye to my kids(her little boy is a couple of months older than Hayleigh). She has definetly changed our family. So please say a prayer for her as you are reading this that God will take care of her. Thanks so much. Love ya.

Having Faith Like A Child

I have read in the bible where Jesus has said to have faith like a child, but I never fully understood until recently. As I stated in my post a couple of weeks ago, Hayleigh, Johnny, and I are doing the Promise this year. Hayleigh has amazed me. She has inspired me soooo much this year. I now know what child like faith is. She has her whole heart into the Promise. She even called me a Brutus Snake the other day when she was in trouble. (John the Baptist calls the Pharisses, this Brewd of Snakes, in that scene.) She has made so many Christian friends that I hope and pray that she keeps her whole life. Yesterday morning I was a little on the crabby side and I told Hayleigh that we may not go to Promise practice and just stay home and rest and go to bed early. She promptly told me that That decision would not make her Jesus happy and We are doing the Promise to praise him and make him happy. Wow. I definetly need to put my heart where hers is. I hope to post some pics of all of us in our costumes. Have a great weekend and Try it yourself to have Faith Like A Child. You truely will be blessed and no dissappointments. I promise. Love ya all.

Addyson my child who will eat eat ANYTHING!!!!

I have always heard parents talking about how their kids put everything in their mouth. Hayleigh never did this. Addyson on the other other hand will and would eat everything in site. To begin this story I have to start at the very beginning. We moved Addy to her big girl bed and she did great for a couple of nights. She did realize quickly that she could get out of bed and she is cutting her bottom I teeth at the same time. So needless to say she is not sleeping much. After the second night in a row of no sleep I asked Johnny on Saturday morning to please watch the girls so that I could take a peaceful shower. He let Hayleigh play the computer so she was good, he then decided that while I was in the shower he would go ahead and shave and make his morning rountine go quicker. ANYWAYS.... As soon as I opened our shower curtain to dry off this is the face that was looking up at me..........

With the PERMANENT MARKER still in her hand with no tip left on it. Yes she ate the permanent marker. I knew at this moment I could be really mad and ruin everyone's day or I could just laugh and take pics. I chose the second option. She had already done the damage why be mad. The even funnier part is that she loves to look at herself in the mirror. She kept looking and opening her mouth and giving herself this look like she didn't know who she was looking at. Sooooo funny. Hayleigh came in the bathroom and looked at Addy and her exact words were.."What did you do girly" We laughed even harder after this. I can promise one thing, there is never a dull moment at the Cummins household. I love these two girls. P.S. The marker did come off her face with a baby wipe and some scrubbing, but her tongue still has a little black on it. We still have not found the tip of the marker either... Anywhere. Love ya All.
