1 Samuel 1:20 It came about in due time, after Hannah had conceived, that she gave birth to a son; and she named him Samuel, saying, "Because I have asked him of the LORD."

Thank you Lord for hearing my cry... Amazing thing is I had named him months before I even conceived or new I could. He is our miracle baby. I am so blessed at this gift you have given me in him.
Happy Birthday Samuel!!

Sam took all the photos and I probably couldn't tell you what they are all of. Jude & Charis decided it would be fun to bang on all the exhibits and open & close the doors. So our visit unfortunately was cut short. It is a good thing we just started studying about Abraham Lincoln this week. Now I can find out all I missed while I was fooling around in school.

MENIFEE: Teen saves brother's life

2009-05-15T19:34:00.000-07:00

Great Story about our Nephews!!

Seventeen-year-old Damian De Los Reyes was giving the family dogs a bath recently when he looked up and saw his 9-year-old brother, Zack, holding his throat, his face purple. In a split second, Damian was behind his brother, performing the Heimlich maneuver. Never mind that Damian had no formal training on the emergency technique. The teen was acting on instinct. He said he knew his brother was dying.
"It was really scary," Damian said. Zack vomited, and it helped a little, but he was still gasping for breath and grabbing his throat, the Paloma Valley High School junior said. Damian grabbed his little brother and took him to neighbor Juan Munoz's home. He knew Munoz, who has a child with severe allergies, was trained to know what to do in the event of an emergency. At that point, Damian said, he didn't know why his brother couldn't breathe, and wasn't sure if it was an allergic reaction or something was lodged in his throat. When Munoz looked down Zack's throat, he saw the culprit ---- a small, round plastic part of a toy whistle. Munoz was able to help Zack vomit out the toy. Zack was rushed by ambulance to Inland Valley Medical Center in Wildomar, and is now recovering. In the aftermath, Damian's quick reaction has been heralded by the family as life-saving. Damian had been babysitting at the time of the incident, which took place Friday around dusk. "You can't help but think of the what ifs," said Erica De Los Reyes, the boys' mother. "He's a bona fide Damian De Los Reyes, 17, is glad to have been able to help save his 9-year-old brother Zack's life Friday. When Zack was playing with a plastic siren whistle that accidentally got stuck in his throat, Damian saw his brother choking and rushed to his aid, performing the Heimlich maneuver. Adrienne Stone, Erica's sister and the boys' aunt, echoed the sentiment. "I guess instinct took over because he saved his 9-year-old brother's life. I was so proud of him," Stone said. At the hospital, doctors told Damian he did the right thing, Erica De Los Reyes said. "I am glad it turned out the way it did," Damian said. Zack described the incident as "creepy." The doctors advised that Zack drink a lot of apple juice, and when the family stopped by the grocery store after leaving the hospital, the young boy asked his father to buy two thank you cards, one for Munoz and the other for his big brother. "I wrote in the card, 'Thanks for saving me,'" Zack said.

So far today with every request to work I get. "Aw Mom but it's my Birthday" He sure knows how to milk it.

It is amazing to think we couldn't have any children and yet God knew better. Praise God for His Amazing Love for us!! I love you my sweet Sam, you are a miracle from God.

Luke's First Show and Tell

2009-02-24T19:56:00.000-08:00

This is a picture of Luke and Mrs. Josie @ Classical Conversations. Luke had his very first opportunity to present something at show & tell. He decided he would bring his SPONGE. Since Luke was real little we noticed he loves to pack and hide things. He plays pretend RV and borrows everything his little mind thinks he may need on his trip. He takes from the closets, from the cupboards from the garage and when dad brings tool or supplies into the house they some how end up in his pretend RV or in his many suitcases or collection of boxes. Whatever this kid can find he will pack it in his pretend RV. Well he decided he needed a sponge so when he needs to wash his RV he could. Dave was not willing to give up his sponge so on his next trip to Home Depot Luke pleaded with daddy to get him his own sponge. Not candy, not Lego's, not any kind of a toy but he wanted a SPONGE. Well this is Luke's sponge and he loves it!! So if Luke is ever visiting at your place and you notice toilet paper rolls or empty bottles missing he may of taken them to add to his collection for his RV vacation.

Hallelujah Night 2008

2008-11-02T09:39:00.000-08:00

Here is Anakin getting ready to battle the scary wolf, Peter Pan & Tinker Bell ready to fly through the night and Momma's Sweet Angel. I put Jude's outfit together about 5 minutes before leaving the house. We had her already to be Tigger and after getting her dressed she took it off and would not put it back on again. She can be a little stubborn and I don't know where she gets it from. I remembered how her brothers did a pretend wedding one day and thought about this dress they put on her. I found a pair of wings and halo and an instant Angel. I'm sure you can tell by the smiling face.

2008-10-28T15:29:00.000-07:00

I am having so much fun with this blog. Here is a new picture of the kids having fun after school.

Daniel Richard Henley

2008-10-27T20:02:00.001-07:00

Today is my oldest son's 20th birthday. We all called his voice mail singing Happy Birthday this morning. The kids love doing that. I can't even believe I am the Mother of a 20 year old or a Grandmother of a 2 year old. It's also hard to believe he won't let me be part of their life.
Please keep praying for my prodigal and his girlfriend Tiffany and son Jacob. I know God is doing something amazing here, the hard part is waiting.

Happy Birthday My Sweet Son!!!
Love, Mom
