Hasta la Vista, Baby!

Closing up shop for a while.

My six year old son, Hilton (pictured earlier in my blog wth the cowboy hat) was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes this past Monday. It was a complete shock to us. He is doing awesome, and if there is any kid who can handle something like this, it is Hilton. He is being such a trooper! He is now insulin dependent and will need 4 shots daily, of which HE prefers to give himself!!! Unbelievable!

Needless to say, we have many changes in store for us; for which I need to completely, 102% focus on.

Please do not question why God gave this sweet little child diabetes.
Jesus said, "This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for God's glory so that God's Son may be glorified through it." John 11:4

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28

Hilton knows his Lord and Savior and he loves Him with all his heart! I'm sure of that!

Mommy, there's a ball in my tummy!

That is what I heard this morning from my sweet daughter's lips!

Yep! She swallowed a metal ball from a Magnetix toy kit.

Thank goodness it is just the ball and not the magnet too. Now we wait for the inevitable passing of the ball.

Just a typical Monday at the Harris household!

Boys and Trees

What is it about boys and trees? Well, at least he has his helmet on!

This tree expedition originally began when my sweet cat, Mystic, was spotted up in it. So, down goes the bycicle and up goes the boy. I ran as fast as I could to get the camera, but upon my return, Mystic plunged out of the tree and scattered across the yard. There was Walker, smiling away, waiting for me to take his picture.
