Baseball and Beep, Beep
Sunday morning Carson woke up yelling Momma, BASEBALL, Momma, BASEBALL. Carson loves to throw, catch, and kick any type of ball. However, my Dad coaches baseball so Carson has been to many of his games, listens to my Dad talk about baseball, and watches baseball on t.v. so needless to say Carson learned the word baseball from my Dad.
Today as I was working around the house, Carson walks beside me and says, Momma, beep, beep. He keeps me smiling.

One year today Carson was placed in my arms.
Today is our forever family day. As I was preparing for the day, my mind was reviewing the events which unfolded the day Carson was placed in my arms.
On June 3, 2008 my sister Tracey and I were getting ready in our Marriott hotel room and my emotions were intense. I was extremely nervous, joyful and excited all at the same time. I remember saying to Tracey, 'I do not think I can do this. Let's forget it and go home'. She laughed and replied "It's too late, Greta Jo." UH! My heart fell to my stomach and I started shaking. She said, "Let's go. We are going to be late." Late to my sister is fifteen minutes before the event takes place. So we proceeded to the lobby, however, once we arrived in the lobby I was too nervous to sit inside. Therefore, we sat outside on the bench giggling and conversing about anything and everything while waiting for Carson. All of a sudden Tracey looks at me with wide eyes and says softly, "Did you bring a picture of Carson with you?" I replied, "No, why?" Her response was priceless, "What if you do not recognize him and what if they switch him for another baby boy?" I laughed and said, "I know what my baby boy looks like." Then, I silently thought to myself, what if? No, they would never, well, maybe, NO, stop it, I have seen enough pictures of Carson to know what he looks like, and I did receive a few update pictures a few days ago. I will know him when I see him. Within 10 minutes of having an argument with myself, a young boy and a tall woman holding a beautiful baby boy started walking towards us. I stood up and said, "There he is, there he is!" Tracey said "Are you sure?" I replied, "Yes, it's Carson." I could not take Carson fast enough from his foster mother. As I was holding Carson for the first time, my heart was so light and I was praising the Lord. Carson's foster mother and I exchanged a few words, shed many tears together, and smiled. June 3, 2007 has changed my life forever. Carson, I love you sweet baby boy!

Love those wildwood days..
We live 15 minutes from the wildwood boardwalk. The wildwood boardwalk has four awesome amusement piers with array of rides, games, pizza shops, ice cream parlor, arcades, and much more. Carson and I spend at least three to four evenings a week on the boardwalk in the summer time. We enjoy the rides however walking the boards or people watching is fine with us. Below are a few photos taken last weekend.
*notice who is holding on- I think his knuckles were white when the ride stopped.*

New York
Living at the Jersey Shore gives us a lot of opportunities, so, early Saturday morning we took a trip to New York City to visit the American Girl Doll Store, sightsee, and see the play Mary poppins. We also took a ride around Central Park in a horse and buggy and we saw some hip hop break dancers. We had a great time!

Summer Vacation to the Jersey shore....
If any of my blogging buddies want to travel to South Jersey this summer for some fun in the sun please let me know. There is plenty of family friendly 'things' to do in South Jersey in the summer- boardwalks, beaches, awesome parks, amusement rides (lots of them), swimming pool, family centers and much, much more.
There is plenty of room to either at my home and my parents guest house which sleeps six. The invitation is open...

Guess who got to ride in a 'real' fire truck? Carson
Uncle Levin took me for a ride in a real fire truck. I was a little scared at first, but once I got to turn on the lights and horns I was ok.
Thanks Uncle Levin- You are one cool Uncle!

Favorite Foto Friday
Dear Carson,
You are my sunshine. There are so many things I love about you. I love the way you giggle, your smile, the way you yell Momma from your bedroom, your soft skin, your kind heart, your little hands, your spirit, the way you yell TRRRRUUUCCCKKKK, the way your little lips move when you eat, your little steps when you run. Carson, I love every little thing about you. But, most of all sweet baby boy, I love being your Momma.
I love you sweet baby boy.
