So i dont think ANYONE reads this thing besides My good friend B so i am TESTING YOU.....lol..
i would like to hear everones favorite Halloween memory..or costume....and if you dont celebrate Halloween, i would like to know what was the highlight of your week....Do it...i DARE YOU:)
My favorite Halloween memory was when i dressed up as Mimi bobeck from the drew cary show when i was in 6th grade. Some girlfriends and i went around our neighborhood trick or treating and my AMAZING friends decided that they were going to play a tick on me (since im the biggest scaredy cat you will ever meet) and the hid from me when we were going through the park....sure enough someone reached out, grabbed my foot, i took off SCREAMING and ran the the closest house which happened to be my mom's friend. What i didnt realize is that while i was running all of my pillow stuff fell out of my dress, i lost a shoe, and i didnt pay attention to my friends who were chasing after me trying to calm me down. Wasnt fun at the time but now i look back on it cracking up imagining myself running through the park screaming like a mad man with pillows falling out of my dress!
Happy Halloween!

Prayers
Hey All!
Sorry that it has been awhile since i have last blogged. Things have been a tid bit crazy around here. Buying a house, Working, Having sickies in the household...its truly been kinda INSANE!
The reason why i am on here right now is that im just asking for some prayers for my son and my family. We just got the call this afternoon that the doctors want to put michael through some tests that kinda scare me. I can't tell you the official name of this test but they put a needle through his leg muscle while he is awake and send shocks through it (like a static shock) to see if his muscles contract. Basically they are looking at how his muscles function because they are worried about a few things...they are thinking that the brain waves are registering to his muscles..Im just freaking out not because of the outcome of the test...im scared of the actual test itself....i just pray that he doesnt feel pain and that it wont send him into seizures...luckily, Michal's guardian/aunt/my best friend is coming with me to sit in the office to make sure i dont have a break down (thank you ahead of time Beth!) My son is a strong boy, stronger than i could ever be and i know he is in God's embrace and that he will guide him through the test...i just wish we were all done with the tests!

...
So i really dont know how i should titlethis so im just going to leave it blank.
When i woke up this morning, i would have never guess that tonight would end up so emotional and convicting for me. Its just sad that it took a friend's misfortune and positive life radio to help me to come realize some things.
This is hard for me to type because i honestly dont like to admit my mistakes and emotions to people, most of the time i try to pretend like nothing is wrong but what is that solving?...NOTHING. So this blog is going to be a reminder on what i, Heidi, need to work on.
1) Being judgmental....Tonight i was talking to a friend about T.V. Christians.. you know what im talking about...the Christians on T.V. shows like "wife swap" that are so far out there in left Field that it gives us Christians a bad name...as we were going on about how we hate about how people get their guards up with us when they learn that we walk with the Lord that it hit me..Us Christians....well, I do, i can't speak for everyone else..do just the same. I honestly have stopped talking to people once i found out that they were huge drinkers, or that they dont believe in the Lord, or even if they look Gothic..i probably wouldn't really make an effort to get to know them. What kind of message does that send to non believers? Im lucky that i had found my way to the Lord but just because i have doesnt make me any better than the next person. I sin. You sin. we all sin. The only perfect one is God himself. What i am trying to say is that i can love the sinner but hate the sin. Just because they do something doesnt mean im going to do it. Im a grown woman and i know the difference between whats right and wrong....but Maybe i have pushed a friendship away when in all reality I could have let the Lord use me to help bring them closer to him. I know i need to surround myself with God's word, i totally agree on that...but that doesnt mean i can't reach out to those who dont know him yet. If i judge them, then im no different from those who judge us....
2) Being Fake.....I hate acting like everything is hunky dory fine when really inside im just having a bad day. If i want to cry...i should cry! if i feel like dancing around like a craze lunatic....why not just do it? As my son grows i want him to feel like he can be himself.. how am i going to teach him that if i cant do the same thing?
and now
3) i have no patients. How do i expect others to have patients with me when i can show them the same respect!
As you can see i have done alot of thinking tonight and i feel good about what i came up with and i am excited to act on what i need to change!!!!

God's Whisper
So tonight has been a VERY productive night...we played with Michael, watched ghostbusters (for those who dont know about the movie, its a 80's movie with lots of slime and dan achroid), made chocolate chip cookies All while being on the phone taking care some personal matters involving house issues. Now im not going to go into detail about the issue but i am SOO happy that everything worked out for the best and that God used my dear friend BAM* as a voice. Somehow she decided to go on google today to research some things and that move right there pretty much saved my family from some tough times ahead! Thank you my Bam Bam! love ya!

Bitter-sweet!
So let me explain my title...because i have GREAT news but also sad at the same time. The great news is that the Lord blessed my lil family with a new home! We woke up Sunday and decided that "ho hum lets go buy a house today!" Now this is where the bitter part comes to play, This home is also the home of my son's guardians and our best friends. Now if im being honest, i am guilty of hoping that they would stay here instead of taking their great adventure that God has planed for them...but i know that God's will is WAY more powerful than my want, lol go figure!
Now to some other news....
Now to some other news....
As i was checking my friend's blog i realized that there are some of you who are wondering who i am! Welp, i will try to let you have a better understanding. My Name is Heidi, Im a wife of a wonderful husband and a mommy of a beautiful boy. I LOVE ME SOME STARBUCKS!!! Dance is a must in my life. Feel Good movies are my favorites. Gelato is heavenly. Romantic at heart. I dork it up with the best of them, I crave to be closer to the Lord always and cuddling on the couch with the hub hub watching our shows is the best ending of a hetic day!
I hope that clears up "who is mama-k" for you all:)
