But then I think about all the things God has used Beckham to prepare you for motherhood and provided Jackson with a friend like no other.<BR/>Such as: taking stuff out of Jackson mouth; patience; and anger mgmt. Jackson's best friend: all the times Beckham stayed beside him (night/day); tail pulling; fur pulling; climbing over and on top of him.<BR/><BR/>Just his name alone will always remind you and Curt of your time spent in England.<BR/><BR/>I certainly have had my share of getting upset at Bella for her antics but when I get home from a long day - she always there wagging and smiling away faithfully and unconditionally.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24028336.post-6632461390011558062007-10-29T22:55:00.000-05:002007-10-29T22:55:00.000-05:00Hi Amanda...I am *so* excited to hear that God has...Hi Amanda...<BR/><BR/>I am *so* excited to hear that God has shown you His growing image in your life! :) These last two years have been, (in some ways) the more difficult years of my life...and yet, I've seen God grow me to where He has helped me respond with *much* more Christ-likeness than I ever would have before, to defintely "lesser" issues. Thank you for your honesty. All-consuming anger has been something God has had to work on/root out of my heart as well, and while I can say none of this apart from our Great Savior, it has, honestly, in some ways been *so*cool* to see un-fun stuff happen in life and yet see God-responses to it as opposed to what I KNOW would have come out before! :)<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the encouragement & for sharing...Hooray for our Great God! :) Oh...and I hope you and your all-healthy get to make, eat & delight in some delectable homemade bread in the very near future!

I have never tried it in all my 20 years of marriage. It just seemed so hard. And I am all about easy cookin. One of these days I will venture to try it, but not tonighth.

I had to run outside to help my hubby, who was building a swing set for the kids, and returned to find that our dog, Duncan, had pulled the racks down and was scarfing up the cookies from the floor! At least those cookies hadn't required proofing and rising and it only took a few minutes to whip up another batch.<BR/>Hope you all feel better real soon!Cindehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06837713187347850996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24028336.post-47470867213898028422007-10-27T10:22:00.000-04:002007-10-27T10:22:00.000-04:00What a great story.
