<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">This morning while we were getting ready for school, JD
asked about the game called “Life” I explained it to him and then said….” it
can be hard”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Right at the moment I thought about the parallel between the
game and the <strong>REALITY </strong>of Life….and I thought to myself “yes it sure can be hard”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Obviously I thought of the many ups and downs
of my life, and the hardest moment of all…8/3/04 when Brandon went from this
earthly life to his heavenly life, but I also thought about JD & Desi’s
life…how their beginning was so very hard.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">And yet in all of that….<strong>GOD HAD A PLAN!<o:p></o:p></strong></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">It amazes me of what I couldn’t see then, but has and
continues to unfold now.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>How God was
healing my heart in that first year after Brandon died, and at same time he was
working his plans for hope and a future for my other son that was to be born 13
months later.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Even in my suffocating
darkness God was with me and yet he was also walking this sweet little boy
through a very rough start in life.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Most
of the time I know without fail that God is always so faithful…sometimes if can
be a battle getting it from my head to my heart.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But today, JD turning 9 is another reminder
of how much he loves me and my children and how faithful he has always been to
give Brandon, Jordan, Seth, Jedidiah & Desi a hope and a future!!!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Since I heard your voice telling me <em><strong>I LOVE YOU, I WILL SEE YOU IN A LITTLE WHILE</strong></em>. At times, it still feels like yesterday when you were telling me that and holding my hand as you were drifting off to sleep for another "procedure". Sometimes those many days, hours, and years can feel so suffocating. It can be so hard for my earthly mind to comprehend heavenly "stuff". But GOD!!! <br />
<br />
He is still faithful to make all things work together for my good, and those suffocating moments do pass quickly at times. And those times they don't....well God gets me through it. Even in all this missing you, wondering what you would look like and what you would be doing....there has been <strong>A LOT of good stuff A LOT of living, and A LOT of LOVING!!!</strong><br />
<br />
For right now, I will keep counting time (God made me that way), keep living, keep loving, keep hoping, keep believing <br />
and keep <strong>HAVING FAITH</strong>!<br />
<br />
I love and miss you my sweet silly 1st born son!<br />

I really enjoy getting my thoughts out, or just talking. I know I know! Talking in person or on here...I love it! No wonder God gave me 2 more children that talk more than me!<br />
<br />
We have been trying to get into a more RELAXED rhythm since coming back from Jamaica. Seriously, life should really be more relaxed and enjoyed. Steve and I are committed to try to keep that "vacation vibe" going, and staying on island time would be great too! But I will admit, the farther we get from our vacation, it can be hard not to get caught up in the stress of busy, or just general negative feelings.<br />
<br />
One area, that I know that would take care of that is.....MORE GOD! I know that I am a better person, wife, mother, and friend when I don't let stress or irritability consume me. And since I don't live in a resort on a tropical island, but in the real world.....God has shown me consistently since I have been home....that, THAT is the vibe he wants for me ALWAYS. Even in the hard places....let him have my stress, anxiety, and big on the list...MY TIME!<br />
<br />
God has been faithful always to show me that when I give him those things I struggle with he ALWAYS replaces them with...Peace, Peace, more Peace, Joy, Trust, Hope, Courage, LOVE, and MORE TIME! After all, time is his. And he just wants more of that with me!<br />
<br />
So today, while I am home with these two small bundles of non stop energy, talking, and motion....I will not become a stressed out mommy! I am going to PRAISE God that I get a "re-do" and that he trusts me with a son and daughter that are very much like their talkative, swirling motion of a mama!<br />

So very happy that he has had this adventure for the summer. It has been A LOT of work...and we are VERY PROUD!!!Dawn http://www.blogger.com/profile/00598394231061411599noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-582371695849587969.post-51372540472925033812012-08-01T13:09:00.000-04:002012-08-01T13:09:27.643-04:00Getting EmotionalGetting so emotional with:<br />
<br />
1. Summer closing (way to FAST)<br />
2. Seth getting ready for his freshman year at the University of Delaware (REALLY FAST)<br />
3. Jordan getting ready to head back to California (this past year with him home...again TOO FAST)<br />
4. 8 years ago today last day I heard Brandon's voice when he said..."I LOVE you, I'll see you in a little bit"<br />
5. August 3rd...8 FULL years of him being GONE! (FASTER & SLOWER than I can even comprehend)<br />
<br />
<strong><u><span style="color: magenta;">Good things:</span></u></strong><br />
1. Seth gettting ready for freshman year at UofD ~ So PROUD of him, exicted for his next new chapter!<br />
2. Jordan getting ready to head back to California ~ So PROUD of him, excited for his next adventure!<br />
3. Jedidiah getting ready to start 1st grade ~ SO PROUD of all that he has accomplished!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
4. Desi is 4 ~ a very sweet, but also sassy DAUGHTER who loves to sing and dance!<br />
5. August 3rd ~ <strong><u>Celebrate Brandon Day</u></strong> ~ 8 FULL years of him being HEALED & living with JESUS!!!<br />
6. August 13th ~ Seth's Eagle Scout Ceremony ~ VERY PROUD of this accomplishment<br />
7. August 15th ~ 1 FULL (and I do mean FULL) year of completed adoption of Jedidiah & Desi!!!<br />
8. August 19th ~ 3 FULL years (again...FULL) that Jedidiah & Desi first walked into our/their home!!!<br />
<br />
<br />
Wow ~ I am a wreck good/sad, but <strong><em>GOD is ALWAYS FAITHFUL</em></strong>. Sometimes I just have to really press hard to get my heart to <strong><em>KNOW IT & FEEL IT</em></strong>!!! But even still...God is always the same, and that helps me through the tears of joy or sadness.<br />

<br />
Desi turned 4 and had a Birthday Weekend. Friday night (her Birthday) was nice and we just did some playing outside...and lil' mama rode the motorcycle with one of her brothers and her daddy! We had her Family Celebration on Sunday. It was a <strong><em>DISNEY PRINCESS BIRTHDAY!</em></strong> This is our 3rd birthday with her....but SHE was and IS definitely <strong>OUR GIFT</strong>! <br />

<br />
This came way to fast! It is so weird how fast those last 4 years of school go by. I can remember each freshman year (Brandon, Jordan, & Seth) and how much I thoroughly enjoyed everything they were involved in, and their friends. I guess that is a part of what makes it go by so fast. BUT, I guess I get to do it all over again with Jedidiah & Desi! I just pray for the energy level of me to be the same!<br />

After a VERY strange year with tennis (Seth started out 1st team doubles, then moved to 3rd team singles), AND after a very hard fought battle during finals....Seth finished 3rd overall in 3rd Singles! It was a long hot weekend...but WORTH it! So PROUD of you Seth!<br />

BUT...today's post will go on for sure!<br />
<br />
Today is Steve's BIRTHDAY!!!<br />
Happy Birthday Sweetie. I am so thankful for this man. He is a man of God that remembers to pray for me when I need it (most of the time), and pray for me when my ATTITUDE needs it! He is a HUGE help around the house, helpful with the kids (especially the "littles"). Adores his children and works hard to provide for his family.<br />
<br />
He knows just what to say (most of the time) when I am in full FREAK OUT mode (rarely happens...HA!). The four simple words I really need to hear....EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY. <br />

I have been emotional all year, but I have to say.....it is really gearing up now. This next month and a half are going to go by so fast, and I just can't beleive it. So yeah....this girl is emotional! But finding JOY also! More to come. :-)Dawn http://www.blogger.com/profile/00598394231061411599noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-582371695849587969.post-15076545321452371622012-01-17T13:31:00.008-05:002012-01-17T14:00:06.432-05:00I want; I desire<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihHRWBc9pxlMA64VPnTj2eoIFpXeGOnirQvy1uD7Eq3WAQMwjj6GpbXPT8nO3t3W4Q615fkF2qqd-DPivN9ZhtOkkQEmKBCGIODjh1Q8vzjJM-V7Bu-5CeRfzfDV3q1JHi_KsXZ_lhWe2n/s1600/Brandon_%257E_Mother_%2527s_Day_2004.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 127px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihHRWBc9pxlMA64VPnTj2eoIFpXeGOnirQvy1uD7Eq3WAQMwjj6GpbXPT8nO3t3W4Q615fkF2qqd-DPivN9ZhtOkkQEmKBCGIODjh1Q8vzjJM-V7Bu-5CeRfzfDV3q1JHi_KsXZ_lhWe2n/s200/Brandon_%257E_Mother_%2527s_Day_2004.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5698675471979902146" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8kVlIfzp_y39S1sU67BjLO0H_rezdHA60gpfbKP8wUfub3f2oNDHkiP4hBYYNEmi-gQdMX0VJdkYOvWbYsQge7YgQfLgBWGA1zzuGbL_1Kw0sC_eQ8KA3eX_SPNUYtG8phW9nSbiBB8U-/s1600/DSCN1253.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8kVlIfzp_y39S1sU67BjLO0H_rezdHA60gpfbKP8wUfub3f2oNDHkiP4hBYYNEmi-gQdMX0VJdkYOvWbYsQge7YgQfLgBWGA1zzuGbL_1Kw0sC_eQ8KA3eX_SPNUYtG8phW9nSbiBB8U-/s200/DSCN1253.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5698675304197651874" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjX75Wu-2Hzuq1jaK8vI4sdgshe0oYCSS8k6w6LSW4JzRGl7oq-Ap_OdZuMTjkFySi2bwYFH7JeVQe8XtUBSpWDvB6jfFdzWpJk7IVhEKXXJm88oPibqhpOa1wijqQn9XWMKnGYr-_nfLSt/s1600/RSCN1274.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjX75Wu-2Hzuq1jaK8vI4sdgshe0oYCSS8k6w6LSW4JzRGl7oq-Ap_OdZuMTjkFySi2bwYFH7JeVQe8XtUBSpWDvB6jfFdzWpJk7IVhEKXXJm88oPibqhpOa1wijqQn9XWMKnGYr-_nfLSt/s200/RSCN1274.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5698675089663981858" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8MAaPmLRu4-wk4polCW61Uw1uMET9jr-DMq8mNsGGwxg0XoqyEaHvi19QGDmlD-0petBfmv8KbzKpzbRc7Y52J_YPvsnxcNMa6INdMb6ZqU82N4nWbmmduNL7jdHTpMyWxE_3cSEmU5g4/s1600/RSCN1695.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8MAaPmLRu4-wk4polCW61Uw1uMET9jr-DMq8mNsGGwxg0XoqyEaHvi19QGDmlD-0petBfmv8KbzKpzbRc7Y52J_YPvsnxcNMa6INdMb6ZqU82N4nWbmmduNL7jdHTpMyWxE_3cSEmU5g4/s200/RSCN1695.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5698674733868597954" /></a><br />Sitting here and reflecting on my 5 beautiful children, and the honor and privilege I have at being "their mom", there are some things that I so desire and want for them.<br /><br />Obviously the top priority is their salvation and ETERNAL life, and YES I am assured of that. All 5 of them!!!! I desire for them to be happy and healthy in life, to love what they do, and do what they love. To always feel loved by me, their dad, each other, and their future spouses. To always know their identity in Christ, and the person that God created them to be. (so glad I get to help them on this part of their journey). For them to see themselves and abilities the way God sees them. What CONFIDENCE they will hold with that!<br /><br />For them to remain close and bonded with each other and their family. To be there for each other through the journey of life. To build on their own special relationships with each other, and then with each other's families. To be those FAVORITE Uncles and an Aunt. Of course, she will lovingly share her Aunt role with her brother's wives, and they will gladly accept her prince of a husband! For their children to be so close with each other and their cousins. Yes...just the way it should be!<br /><br />So yeah, among all of the other things I "may want"....THIS IS THE BEST!!!<br /><br />I LOVE YOU Brandon, Jordan, Seth, Jedidiah & Desi!Dawn http://www.blogger.com/profile/00598394231061411599noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-582371695849587969.post-1684624906864411762012-01-16T13:41:00.002-05:002012-01-16T13:45:43.581-05:00Cool<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPs_kIwPbMREdQ-ufvpREyYtgr7ITbgwZVQKvtpcXjiGRyDEFKW6-Z4r79EtTgv-_XVczB9BkraLrnJWQIcb0R5w3cda8Q6lzsSn6ie_LVz6j4ZTK16Hs-In-9pIMa6h3TozVAafcV1xoX/s1600/life+art.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPs_kIwPbMREdQ-ufvpREyYtgr7ITbgwZVQKvtpcXjiGRyDEFKW6-Z4r79EtTgv-_XVczB9BkraLrnJWQIcb0R5w3cda8Q6lzsSn6ie_LVz6j4ZTK16Hs-In-9pIMa6h3TozVAafcV1xoX/s200/life+art.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5698302817392190898" /></a>Dawn http://www.blogger.com/profile/00598394231061411599noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-582371695849587969.post-13917362007222693692011-12-05T17:12:00.002-05:002011-12-05T17:21:24.929-05:00Moments In Time ~ Photo'sHear The Sound ~ :-)<br /><br /><br /><br /><div style="width:480px; text-align: center;"><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" src="http://w7.photobucket.com/pbwidget.swf?pbwurl=http%3A%2F%2Fw7.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fy258%2Fbrandonmichaelhastings%2Ffa597bcf.pbw" height="360" width="480"><a href="http://photobucket.com/slideshows" target="_blank"><img src="http://pic.photobucket.com/slideshows/btn.gif" style="float:left;border-width: 0;" ></a><a href="http://s7.photobucket.com/albums/y258/brandonmichaelhastings/?action=view&current=fa597bcf.pbw" target="_blank"><img src="http://pic.photobucket.com/slideshows/btn_viewallimages.gif" style="float:left;border-width: 0;" ></a></div>Dawn http://www.blogger.com/profile/00598394231061411599noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-582371695849587969.post-9356943211909415142011-11-25T16:11:00.003-05:002011-11-25T16:17:38.100-05:00Stands to ReasonI really miss Brandon EVERYDAY....but obviously it stands to reason that holidays, birthday's, ect......IT STINGS even more.<br /><br />I am so Thankful for many things though.
