Slip and Slide

What an interesting day. Today Daddy woke up to an ice storm. While he was in the shower he received a call that the school would have a delayed opening. No good for Daddy since he lives so far away and traffic would get hectic. He decided to keep getting dressed. Good thing he did because Mommy received a call saying that her school was closed. That meant Mommy and CJ got the chance to stay home while Daddy had to brave the elements.

Daddy did not see CJ again until he returned home from a meeting down at the church. She was waiting for her dinner which never came. Luigi's on 516 in Old bridge will hear it tomorrow. She had just had her hair washed with her new products and she smelled so ethnic with natural African American hair care products. I like the shampoo and can't wait to use it.

CJ is sleeping soundly and Daddy is about to join her. Daddy thanks God for traveling mercy today. prayer does change things, people, and situations including road conditions.

One Shining Moment

At the end of the NCAA Mens Basketball Championship game, as the credits role and all the commentator's have had their say one song plays. That is, "One Shining Moment". It nearly brings me to tears when I hear and that is the feeling I felt tonigt. CJ had been put to bed but I guess she was not ready to go to sleep so of course she whined. For the past few weeks we have just let her be but tonight Daddy was in the room so he sat down and talked to CJ for a bit. She then gave him a hug and he just held her head to his face. He got her pillow and when she felt like letting go she laid down. Aw man that moment tonight felt great. I will savor it for a long time.

I pray we have many more moments. If we keep praying we will. Prayer changes things, people, and situations.

Just Highlights

Due to the late hour and the bunch of work Daddy has to do tonight and get rest you will only get highlights of the day.

CJ and Daddy had Saturday breakfast as usual.

Daddy and CJ were able to see both the TCNJ Women's and Men's basketball team lose today. Making shots was a problem. CJ cheered for the wrong team but as Mommy said maybe she just wanted to support the winners.

CJ visited the sitter and got her hair done.

Daddy and Mommy bough their own toothpaste no more using CJ's.

Keep us in prayer, as always prayer changes things, people, and situations!

Testing

OK, CJ is really beginning to test her luck. No is not just her favorite word but she is catching tantrums along with it. It is very lear that she is aware of what she is doing so Daddy is acting accordingly. CJ seems to have developed a real fiesty attitude when she does not get her way. Recently Daddy has found himself having to lay down the law more often. CJ must learn right from wrong and how to listento her parents or fear having a miserable life.
Discipline will always be tough for me. I will always
pray that I have a level head and that I alway am
teaching through discipline. Daddy wants CJ to mature positively and not develop any resentment towards her
Daddy. So keep us in prayer. We know prayer changes things, people, and situations.

NOTE TO CJ: Understand the decisions you make. Follow the directives taught to you and you will not have to be discipline in a negative way. Daddy wants you to have self-discipline which is the best discipline of all. I Love You!

Pass The Time Away

Tonight we needed to accomplish two things. Get Daddy a haircut and get Mommy to the doctor. Poor CJ had to endure it all.We had to wait for a guy to get his hair dyed which took longer than we anticipated. Once we were done we had to make the bank which we were successful in doing. What sucked up the entire not was Mommys trip to the doctor. CJ and Daddy wasted time by shopping and when we could not waste anymore time went back to pick up Mommy. We waited for a good half hour, which was not to bad.

We are all home and CJ is sleeping. Daddy is wasting precious moments watching Jersey Shore. Pray for Daddy, prayer chanhes things, people, and situations.

The X-Ray

Well Daddy got his wish and the job was closed today. That meant a day home with his Princess and lovely wife. So the day started as any day we are home would with Daddy and CJ awake and Mommy sleeping. Daddy prepared breakfast for CJ and himself. Eggs, corn beef hash, and grits with cheddar cheese. The meal was scrumptuous too. CJ had a scheduled appointment for 5:45pm today for an X-Ray. Mommy thought to ask if we could get it moved up since the snow was really not that bad. So Daddy called and we were able to have the appointment pushed up four hours. This allowed us to relax some more.

CJ was taller than the normal child so the technician needed to adjust the machinery for her. Since CJ is so observant it took her a while to get focused for the x-ray. Both Mommy and Daddy needed to get involved. Once we were finished CJ wanted to talk to the old guy in the waiting area. Daddy told Mommy that the "do not talk to strangers" conversation will have to be very detailed for CJ.

Next up is back to the Ear Nose and Throat specialist to see if CJ will need surgery or not. Keep praying for her. We know that prayer changes things, people, and situations.
