Because of the blessing from Pastor Alice's secret friend we were able to go buy the kids clothes they all needed so badly. Since daddy was off today we took off for the mall. Madison had gift certificates to spend and the kids had Christmas money from Uncle Gene and Aunt Mary Jo.
We surprisingly had a really great time shopping. The only problems we had were Sam related...that is to be expected...
Sam, Amaris and Elijah decided they wanted to spend their money at build a bear. Sam made a Lion he named Leo, Amaris made a purple Hippo named Hannah, and Eliojah made a Zebra named Zachary, Zachary also is wearing leapord print boxer shorts. (Elijah is a crack up!)
When wqe returned home, Dominique (who stayed home from our little excersion) asked if he could go pick up his friend and go to the mall. When we got home the roads were fine....so, we let him...within 20 minutes the phone rang, a very shaky voice on the other end said...."MOM I have been in a very bad accident, I don't know what to do can you come please?" needless to say I was almost out the door before I hung up the phone. Thank God for Dominique's angels! They worked overtime this day for sure! His car obviously from the pictures is a total loss. But praise God no one was injured. The other driver was not injured either. Darn that ice! It forms so quickly and sometiomes is hard to see especailly at night.
On this night we also had the privelege of meeting Joy's boyfriend Dan. Once nerves were settled we had a nice visit. The kids loved him and still talk about him today! We all loved him, Joy is a very special person to us and she deserves the best in the world. He just might be the closest thing to the best! Thanks Joy for allowing my crazy family the opportunity to meet your special Dan. Everyone else, please pray for Dan as he is a soldier and lives a soldiers life, he just returned from his second tour in Iraq and serves on a special unit that could deploy anywhere in the world to assist with natural disasters. He is a great guy!
