Our baby turned Five today!


Wow! I am continually amazed at how time flies. Bobby and I can not believe that Madeline is Five years old today. We are so grateful for her and to be entrusted with her.


Madeline (1 month) and our beloved Bailey (11 years)
Thank you all for being apart of her prayer-filled life.

Choices...



Bobby and I have been faced with some difficult choices as of late. I am asking for your prayers as we have had to make some changes around "Sweet Home Swaine" that do not include these two very sweet babies. Thank you in advance for witholding questions and just praying for Sheba & Belle and for our family without them. Have a wonderful holiday.

A Huge Thank you

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you to all who prayed, cooked, called, and visited me after and during my knee surgery! I could feel the calmness on Wednesday morning when we woke up to leave for St. Pete. ; I knew that it had to be all the prayers going up for me. I appreciate each and everyone of you and understand how fortunate I am to be surrounded by such great and gracious people.

Love and Laughs! Jody

Feeling better

Day six after knee surgery and I can finally say that I am feeling better. What a wild ride that was! The knee part was a breeze, the anesthesia and pain medications...not so much. However, focusing on the positive, I am well on my way to recovery. Saturday was the first day without my crutches for about a 1/4 of the day and Sunday was even better. I am trying very hard not to be overzealous and hurt myself. Upon waking up this morning, I sat on the couch, removed the bandages, and hobbled to the shower...Hallelujah!!


No bandage, a little swollen.


Huge bandage And just cause I think they are so stinkin' cute!
