Several things have happened since last I posted...But, all in all what happens in our dailey lives has a purpose...to help us grow...It's up to us how we receive the growth...I want to grow in the strength of the Lord...I know that He is my strong tower and that I can ALWAYS run to Him...I know that He is my strength and gets me through alot of things....Really, all things...I know that He is my fortress and my peace, and my all in all...Yet I have to let Him be these things to me...So here I am letting Him be...exactly what I need...Do I want answers?  Yes...Do I want to know why? Yes...Do I always need to know what? Well, sometimes the TRUST factor has to weigh in and take over..."I know whom I've believe and am presueded that He is able to keep that which I've committed unto Him against that day"  Do I waver in this? Well, yes. I'm only human...But bottom line..I believe that Jesus is who is says He is and I can always trust that He knows waht, when and where... Thank you Lord, for your constant, neverending love that you have already given to us in the form of your "only begotten Son"...Thank you for your long suffering with us and that you never give up on us...thank you that you love us inspite of ourselves and that your love is sincere...thank you that you are always trying to get through to us and showing us the love that we have in our families, our true family..I love you Lord and trust you with my life, my family, my finances and everthing in between..for you are the light of my path and the strength of my heart and the joy that comes ever time I look at what you have done not only in my life, but in everything that you have created...Help me to always see the beauty of you even in the tough things that we have to go through and to achieve the purpose you have mapped out for me...in my life&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33177935-6631101351077098951?l=bettyfm.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bettyfm.blogspot.com/feeds/6631101351077098951/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33177935&amp;postID=6631101351077098951' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33177935/posts/default/6631101351077098951'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33177935/posts/default/6631101351077098951'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bettyfm.blogspot.com/2009/10/growing-up.html' title='Growing UP'/><author><name>bettyfm</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16871431279087130234</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/280/3639/1600/bry%20and%20maw%20kiss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33177935.post-6695767530919848411</id><published>2009-09-21T11:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-21T12:08:07.929-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Rain, Rain, Go Away!!!

We give them birth(God gives them life), we change their diapers, we help with homework, we watch as they go out on dates, hoping that they make right choices along the way. We then, take a back seat to their lives. They go along not realizing that, they too will take this road. Watching as their children grow and start making their choices. One thing that I never thought of was how their choices would effect the "back-seat" parents. We try not to butt in or offer too much opinion, but it gets hard sometimes. Are they thinking that because you do not say something about a way of life that they have developed, as approval? Do they even care about what we think anymore? Can we actually help them, not money wise but heart wise? Do they want us to? These are questions that roll around in my mind quite often. Then,today as I was thinking on these things, I wondered if they have thought about how it's gonna feel when their children are grown and they don't seem to care what they think...It's something to think about...I never did...When you're 60 years old, will your son or daughter respect your opinion?  Will they listen out of courtesy?  Will they totally disregard everthing you have tried to teach them?  If they think back to their teen years, do they want their kids to go down the same path or one that's even close? You can not, I repeat, YOU CAN NOT make anyone do what's right...It's their choice, even when they are young...All I know is that I wanted more for my kids...I wanted them to make better choices than I did...but mostly, I wanted them to seek God more than I did...He is the best shot you got...so why not take it...sitting on a fence can be fun for a while, but you can't hold hands with two worlds...you have to choose...because if you don't the fence will choose for you..you will be pulled off by one of the two sides...which will it be? You think these times of recession are bad?  Just wait..it will get worse..the Bible says it will and so far everything that has been predicted has happened..go check for your self. So I say...EQUIP, EQUIP you children with weapons of the heart that only God and His word can provide. Think of the time when you are not around...will they be able to stand alone..they may have to..It's up to you to help them know how...If you are unsure how...Find out...HELP THEM KNOW...You are their only link to knowing..Ask yourself this, AM I doing the best I know how to ensure my child's mind, soul and body? All you can do is your best ,in HIM, and if you fail, get up and try again..They are worth your best effort. And ,remember, the "back-seat" may have some good advice sometimes, Ask...It can't hurt to listen to someone who may have already walked the way you are headed.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33177935-7999299665687918967?l=bettyfm.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bettyfm.blogspot.com/feeds/7999299665687918967/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33177935&amp;postID=7999299665687918967' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33177935/posts/default/7999299665687918967'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33177935/posts/default/7999299665687918967'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bettyfm.blogspot.com/2009/09/back-seat-driver.html' title='Back Seat Driver'/><author><name>bettyfm</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16871431279087130234</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/280/3639/1600/bry%20and%20maw%20kiss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33177935.post-7776724487520520119</id><published>2009-09-16T14:18:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-16T14:41:45.433-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Just Plain Blessed</title><content type='html'>I feel just plain blessed!!! My back is better and the day is good. Steve is gone fishing..by his self and I pray that he has a great time and that he might catch a fish or two. We have had a couple of great weeks..we got to keep Tyler and Brody Friday nite and had a wonderful time...Man, they are sooooo cute and funny...The only mistake we made was turning off the ocean noise, Brody was restless and finally woke up enough to want to play...He was so cute, we laughed is our sleepy state at him..he was humming a song and clucking his tongue.. we would just start giggling at him..He finally went back to sleep around 3:30am, so we got some sleep..Tyler slept through it all.. We got up on Saturday and took Tyler to watch Bry play soccer. Tyler loved it..he got out on the field at the half time and was kicking that ball into the goal..he kept it away from the big boys and made a goal..he was very proud of him self..and of course the grandparents(that'd be me and steve) wer beaming for him and Bry, who did a great job with his team. The we got ready for the Bama game..I cooked spaghetti, salad and Mom made her from scratch buttermilk chocolate cake with fudge icing and we had a feast. Brett, Tonnie, Sierra, Luke, RB and Frankie came over. The game was good..we won..and Luke, Frankie(akagreat grandma) and I played skippo and Luke was so funny that Frankie was amazed. That was the most she had ever seen him in action with his little quirky funny personality..&lt;br /&gt;Then on Sunday..I had my first Stars class and I had a blast..you know when you teach, you learn far more than you know and they girls are so much smarter that I am that I think I need a WHOLE lot of LONG prayers going up for me...We started out behind so we are gonna hit it hard and fast to get all their steps in before next June..so please keep us in your prayers gonna need them to make it. After church on Sunday we had the annual awards program for the Missionettes at my house...Rojelia cooked for us and there was about 20 or so folks here and it was a good thing.. I love that serving God can be so much fun and that in the process you get to see young children grow and learn to do the right things...things that the Lord has mapped out for us all in His Word...I know that I will learn far more than they will. It's gonna be a fun year all the way around..church, family and friends...I love you all. God Bless...'til next time.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33177935-7776724487520520119?l=bettyfm.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bettyfm.blogspot.com/feeds/7776724487520520119/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33177935&amp;postID=7776724487520520119' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33177935/posts/default/7776724487520520119'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33177935/posts/default/7776724487520520119'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bettyfm.blogspot.com/2009/09/just-plain-blessed.html' title='Just Plain Blessed'/><author><name>bettyfm</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16871431279087130234</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/280/3639/1600/bry%20and%20maw%20kiss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33177935.post-85340214716139960</id><published>2009-09-10T16:58:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-10T17:07:38.475-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Just Wishing</title><content type='html'>Well, I have been in the old chair most of the day with the heating pad on my back....just wishing that I could not be sitting in the old chair with the heating pad.

Let's see...Where do I begin....Humm-mm-mmmmmmmmmm...Well, I'm a lot older and have two more grandbabies since Jamie first set this blog up for me....I have had a hip replacement(Aug.26, 2008)...I had both ovaries removed on July 17,2008..Steve's Mom passed in July,2008. We had a lot going on in 2008..but guess what? We're still kicking.&lt;br /&gt;I would say this has been one of the best summers for me... The grands have worn out the pool and that is fun watching them enjoy swimming and Tyler and Bryant have learned to swim without water wings this summer. Tyler took swim lessons and really has done well..He was so afraid...but now he's not. Bry just decided he had to learn in order to keep up with the older boys and Sierra...Now there's Sophie and Brody...They have no fear of the water and have to be watched VERY closely...They think they are kin to Flounder and Ariel...They are so cute, Brody will jump in before you can prepare to catch him and Sophie will swim on her back with her wings on....They are a sight...I LOVE IT!!!!&lt;br /&gt;Also this summer I went to the "Pink House" and had a blast..We left on July 26...Hank, Jamie, Tres, Bry and Sophie went with me...The girls in my car and the boys in Jamie's car...We traveled down and got there around 6pm or so and the boys called us to say thy wanted to go straight to the beach(&lt;a href="http://kidsrealityandmore.blogspot.com"&gt;Jamie&lt;/a&gt; has posted pics from the entire trip) so the girls were left to unload and put up the food...UMMMM what's wrong with this picture? Just kidding....We went to the beach, ate out, shopped, went to the beach, ate out....well you get the picture..Now, Matt, Kayla, Tyler and Brody were already at the beach with KK and Papi, aunts, great aunt and uncle and cousins having a blast...so we were able to plan a 2nd birthday party for Sophie at the Back Porch (I told you it had been a while since I posted!). By Friday, Steve, Jennie, Sierra and Luke were headed down and got there around 6pm...They went to the beach for the sunset and Jamie got some great pics of that. Matt and Kayla were planning on leaving on Sunday...so we had the party for Soph on Sat. afternoon, everyone was there except Tonnie and Brett....They had to be there for church, But on Sunday after church..Tonnie and Lori headed down, while Steve, Jamie,Hank and the kids(not Sierra and Luke) were headed back... I had an afternoon with Luke and Sierra, while Ton and Lori were traveling. Tonnie and Lori stayed until Thursday, they left and I was ...ALONE... I usually do not like this position in life...I don't like to be alone even to go to the grocery store or to drive...well, anywhere....or anytime...but, this time I did like it..I really don't know why...maybe I'm finally growing up (HA HA)(that'll never happen) but for what ever reason...I was ok with it...I didn't even put a chair in front of the door this time...

I've been up since 2:30 playing games and now on the "blog". So here's the update....Tired!! I've shopped with Tyler and Kayla, par-tayed with Tres, finally got back to church(Yeah!!!),Colored and re-colored my hair, had another cat scan, ate lunch with Mom, Jamie, Kaye, Kayla,Grands. Had dinner with Steve, Matt, Brett, Hank, Jamie, Tonnie, Kayla, Jen, all the grands.(NOT IN THAT ORDER) I miss Vickie and Cookie. I'll have to do something about that. Oh, and let's not forget football. ohoooo---I almost sinned.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have come to realize that I am not as well versed,spoken or otherwise sharp as Jamie on this here blogging thing. But, I said I would try and by-golly I,m not gonna be defeated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went shopping with Kayla and Tyler on Monday and we had a great time. We started out by eating lunch at the Olive Garden with Jamie, Tres and Bry and it was fun.&lt;br /&gt;Tyler is just adorable(as are all of my grands). I hop Jamie and Hank will post one of the pics from that lunch. And we really shopped til we dropped. It was great!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tres b'day party was at my house on Sat. and it was fun.Then the ball game happened and all was almost spoiled, but as Jamie said that sun rose the next day anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OH Yeah, I ran into an old and wonderful friend while shopping with Kayla. Connie Kessler and we were happy to see each other and catch up a little and we are not gonna let so much time pass from  now on. Praise the Lord!! I've really missed Connie and Cecil. There have not been to many days that I haven't spoken of them or thought of them. They are two people that I do not ever intend to forget. They made and will continue to make a deep impact on my life.. A wonderful Christ-like, big difference kinda, impact.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I think that I'll try to get some sleep now.  God Bless you and goodnite.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33177935-115935199662654504?l=bettyfm.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bettyfm.blogspot.com/feeds/115935199662654504/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33177935&amp;postID=115935199662654504' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33177935/posts/default/115935199662654504'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33177935/posts/default/115935199662654504'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bettyfm.blogspot.com/2006/09/better-late-than-never.html' title='BETTER LATE THAN NEVER!!!!!!'/><author><name>bettyfm</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16871431279087130234</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/280/3639/1600/bry%20and%20maw%20kiss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33177935.post-115916115801066086</id><published>2006-09-24T22:09:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2006-09-24T22:14:22.076-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Grandaddy's Father's Day video</title><content type='html'>Hey Betty Fay,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just thought I would upload this video so you and all your friends could view this slide show, and I wanted to tell ya'll how much I appreciate all that you and Steve do for me and my family, I love you guys very much.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your Favorite Son-In-Law Hank&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="350"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/zYhgMKaHSsE"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/zYhgMKaHSsE" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="600" height="350"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33177935-115916115801066086?l=bettyfm.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bettyfm.blogspot.com/feeds/115916115801066086/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33177935&amp;postID=115916115801066086' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33177935/posts/default/115916115801066086'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33177935/posts/default/115916115801066086'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bettyfm.blogspot.com/2006/09/grandaddys-fathers-day-video_24.html' title='Grandaddy&apos;s Father&apos;s Day video'/><author><name>bettyfm</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16871431279087130234</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/280/3639/1600/bry%20and%20maw%20kiss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33177935.post-115818149526140008</id><published>2006-09-13T13:57:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-09-13T14:08:02.403-07:00</updated><title type='text'>My grandkids!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/280/3639/1600/IM000441.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

I've been venturing out and reading blogs and my spaces, but I haven't figured out how to post comments yet. So, Vickie, I love your blog and I LOVE your new do. It's da boom!! Soon, I'll be a pro at this like you guys. Well, maybe not exactly but I'll get it a try.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went back to the doctor Thursday and he said that I may have to have a little more surgery. He said that I may still have a small piece of the mass deep down. But the good news is that it would be a day thing. But, first I have to have another cat scan on Sept. 20th, then see the doc. again. He said that he would go thru my ribs with a tiny camera and pull the rest out that way. It's just that he said he didn't want to leave any to grow and do any damage. SOoooo, me either. and here we go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm just glad that it's simpler.

I slept most of the day today. Yesterday, Jamie brought the boys over and helped me get Jen to the doc. took us to lunch,where we just happen to meet up with Steve and helped with dinner. I can't tell you how much those boys cheer me up. They are so funny and the Word says," a merry heart doth good like a medicine" ,well I get a lot of "medicine" from those two.  I LOVE IT!!!!Then there's Luke and Sierra and Tyler so I'm a pretty happy camper.&lt;br /&gt;Cookie took me to get my hair sut today, then to lunch at Swamp John's and then the most important stop, getting the PAIN pills, that's why I slept all afternoon. It was great!!! I went out and watched Steve swim with Sierra and Luke. Tonnie fixed left overs and now I'm on this computer.&lt;br /&gt;I don't think I told you guys that Tonnie and her family are staying with us in the basement apartment while their house is being built. I'm gonna be very sad when they finish. I'll have that nest thing happening again..well, I'll cross that bridge when it gets here. But it will be hard for me.&lt;br /&gt;Matt and Kayla had to have tubes put in Tyler's ear today. Please just pray that Kayla will get some much needed rest now and that Sweet little Tyler will be free from aches, pains and break outs.  God is good and He can take care of all things for Tyler. He needs some Doctor free life now...He's 10 months old, walking all over the place, dancing,baby singing and all in all a joy to everyone..He truly is an angel!!! I'm so excited about getting to spend time with them this weekend...I wouldn't miss going for anything.&lt;br /&gt;Well I better close for now I'm tired. See ya soon  Betty&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33177935-115646876279972336?l=bettyfm.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bettyfm.blogspot.com/feeds/115646876279972336/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33177935&amp;postID=115646876279972336' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33177935/posts/default/115646876279972336'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33177935/posts/default/115646876279972336'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bettyfm.blogspot.com/2006/08/my-second-time.html' title='my second time'/><author><name>bettyfm</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16871431279087130234</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/280/3639/1600/bry%20and%20maw%20kiss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33177935.post-115627639990604920</id><published>2006-08-22T12:47:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-08-22T12:53:19.916-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Posting a Start!</title><content type='html'>Hey everybody!  I'm a blogger now!  Jamie set me up.  She's making me dictate my first entry (Hi everyone! ~ Jamie) cause I'm computer illiterate.  So maybe this will help me learn.  In case you don't know me... I'm Betty, mother of four, plus three spouses, grandmother of five... and loving every minute of it!  I've been married to Steve for 30 years... a VERY long time!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just had surgery.  I had my breastbone cracked open, so they could remove a mass behind the esophogas.  Everything came back great.  I just have to recover. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My husband, son, his wife, and Tyler are taking me to the 'pink house' this weekend in Panama City for some seafood.  I'm very much looking forward to it!  No beach this time... but the Back Porch is good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'd just like to say to all my friends out there, thank you for praying and supporting me during this time.  I love you all and couldn't make it without you... friends and family.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33177935-115627639990604920?l=bettyfm.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://bettyfm.blogspot.com/feeds/115627639990604920/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33177935&amp;postID=115627639990604920' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33177935/posts/default/115627639990604920'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33177935/posts/default/115627639990604920'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bettyfm.blogspot.com/2006/08/posting-start.html' title='Posting a Start!'/><author><name>bettyfm</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16871431279087130234</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/280/3639/1600/bry%20and%20maw%20kiss.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry></feed>
