"An Answered Prayer": After my mother's yearly mammogram, she was called back by her doctor in Birmingham on Thursday of last week. They wanted her to travel back up there so they could do an ultrasound on a "suspicious" spot that was found in her right breast. Praise be to God that it turned out to be a fluid-filled cyst that was only 1/2 centimeter in diameter. They said that they will see her back in one year.

I took this picture of her forever smiling face tonight after she prepared a delectable meal in honor of the December birthdays-me and my daddy! I just LOVE her sooooo much!!
























Just wanted to share some pictures of my sweet little loves. They are growing up too fast!!

Your boys are precious!!

My mom had that same situation about this time of year a few years back...it is sooooo scary! Praise God Mrs. Sherry is healthy and can keep cooking those wonderful birthday meals for all of y'all:)

Beth said...

Thank the Lord Mrs. Sherry is okay! I KNOW how scary it can be!!! You are right, she is always smiling and always sweet as can be~

Your boys are growing! Sawyer is changing big time! They are sweet!

I don't know why you haven't been able to get in touch with me...I know my linc usually has no service here at home but my house phone works---I don't know. I'm sorry! I would love to borrow clothes at some point if you would like for me to!! I'm afraid I'm going to need them sooner this time! I can ALREADY feel my stomach growing!!!! That is SCARY! I may look like an elephant before it's all over!!!!!!!!!

Julie your boys are absolutely adorable! And I'm so thankful your mom got good news when she went back to the doctor...thank God for that!

Lori said...

I'm thrilled to know that your mom got a good report. I can only imagine how troubling that would be!!

The pictures of the boys are great!! The second one of the Sawyer is my fav. My favorite of John Parker is the only with his hands on his chin. Too, too cute!!

Christy said...

I'm glad everything turned out okay for your mom. I guess she is who you get your forever smile from :)

The boys are precious, as usual! Cute pictures!

Heather said...

The pictures of the boys are fabulous and that little Sawyer is getting big.

I'm soooo glad your mom got a good report. That is a hard thing to go through. Cancer is a harsh disease, and I hope I never have to see someone suffer through that again. However, my Aunt (my mother's sister) had her second mastectomy yesterday. She is not going to have to have Chemo or radiation this time. I pray that God touches and heals her body for good. Ok I've said enough!

I am glad to hear everything is Okay with your Mom. How sweet of her to cook for everyone! Sawyer is looking so big, I can't get over how much he has grown. I think he looks alot like you. They are both so precious! By the way, I loved the idea of Elf on the Shelf. I went and got us one and so far so good.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Dawn said...

Wonderful news Julie. We had a scare with my mother 4 years ago with a tumor in her bladder that was cancerous. They went in and got it all. What would we do without our Mothers? We certainly don't want to find out do we? Love you and your sweet mother! Of course, your boys are precious too!

Julie - your boys are so handsome! I love those pictures!! Looks like you guys had a great Christmas! Illy

Great minds think alike! I have the same background. Ha! I am so glad your mom got a good report. Scary!! Anyway, your pictures are so great. I sent you an email about the Nikon. Not sure if you got it or not, but I asked you a few questions about it. Trying to get used to it; too many options but I love it.

Hi Julie,
My head is spinning from catching up with so many people, but it is great!! I don't even know if I knew that you married Jeremy!! Your sons are so precious, and you are right, John Parker does favor him. You look beautiful, as always! I checked over Scotty's blog too. Looks like everyone is doing well! It is great to hear from you.
Take care and give everyone a hug from me!
Elizabeth

Happy Birthday!! I know you must have been worried about your mom, I am so glad she received a good report.

Kelly said...

Hey Julie! Your two boys are soooo precious! Seriously :) Hope you are doing well. I am so happy that your mom received good news. What a relief!

Dawn said...

I LOVE the new picture of Sawyer David at the top of your blog! It's precious!

Julie, we are on our way to the sugar bowl today. Say a big Roll Tide for us. I will post pics on my blog when we get back. I am super excited. I have never even been to New Orleans except to just ride through. We are planning on spending the day there tomorrow! RRRROOOOOLLLLLLL TTTTTIIIIIIDDDDEEEE!!!!!!!!

Carrie said...

Hey Jules. Hope you had an awesome Christmas. I am so glad your mom's report turned out to be good. Jason's mother had breast cancer last year, but she is good now too. It is really scary. It also seems to me that we are more aware of our parent's health as they become older. Maybe it's just me...Your pics. are great. It is ridiculous that we live literally 2 mins. away from each other and we hardly see one another. Maybe that should be one of our resolutions...

Hey Jules! It was so wonderful to see you over X-mas. I Miss You so much! Maybe one day we can sit down and really catch up. I really appreciate the gift for Asher. That was too sweet! John Parker has grown so much since the last I saw him and Sawyer may as well be call "Little Scotty". I'll be keeping in touch.
