Having an only child

Kelly from Kelly's Korner is featuring only children today. When we got married we wanted to start a family right away. I thought 3 children would be great and my husband wanted a baseball team! What I thought was going to take us 9 months took us 8 1/2 years and one miscarriage. I must admit there were  A LOT of tears along the way. On 12/04/95 we were blessed with a wonderful little boy we named Logan. It might not of been an easy road towards parenthood but I tell everyone Logan has been the EASIEST child to raise. He is such a blessing. I never planned on having an only child but I am so happy God's plan was for me to be Logan's mom. He is very close to Fran's (my twin) 3 children and I know that he will always have them in his life.

Logan is now a Sophomore and is planning on becoming a doctor.  He wants 4 kids of his own so I will have lots of little ones to love! (I am in no hurry) I have read a lot of blogs with couples having problems with having a family of their own and my heart goes out to them. I was one of them and I just want to say don't give up. All your tears and heartache will all be forgotten when you hold your new baby in your arms whether you give birth to that child or adopt. For me being a mom has been the greatest gift I have ever received. Thank you Lord for letting me be Logan's mom.

Hubby got me a little something...

I forgot to tell ya, my hubby surprised me with a new car this summer. I had no idea I was getting it. Fran and I went shopping one day and when I dropped her off at her house my hubby and son pulled up behind us and my hubby handed me the keys. He said it took weeks to get the right color with all the extras he wanted but everyone kept the secret. I was really surprised. We've had a lot of fun with it. Just wish we had warm weather all year around. It does have the hard top. We needed a new vehicle since my son is getting his license soon and will be getting our jeep.

This is my son Logan and his girlfriend Danielle. They went to Homecoming this past weekend.

Fran and I are leaving in a couple days for Las Vegas again. My bosses take us every year. This time we are going to see Elton John! We have a lot of things planned and it should be a very fun time.

I found it in a magazine...

Have you ever seen something in a magazine that you just loved, only to be disappointed with the price or because you had no idea of where to purchase it? I was flipping through my REDBOOK magazine and fell in love with this jacket. It was $72.00 but there are so many ways you can wear it that I figured I could justify the price.

I was surprised to find it is from Sears. It's part of their new UK Fashion Connection line. I don't know about you but the only thing I think about purchasing from Sears is appliances. I found it on line and on sale for $42.99! It comes in black and tan. I wanted the tan but the sizes went from 2 and skipped to 8. I figured the 2 would be too small because I want to layer it and the 8 would be way too big. I have never purchased anything from the UK Fashion Connection line so I did not know if the sizing ran a little on the small/big side. I ended up calling around and found it at a mall about 45 minutes from us.

While somethings aren't as nice as they look in a magazine, I wasn't disappointed with the jacket. It's well made. Fern and I each got one. We have a lot of the same clothes because we like the same things but we don't wear them at the same time. We have come close a few times. I don't know how many time one of us has said "I was going to wear that today but changed my mind." I did end up getting the size 2. Have you ever found something in a magazine you just had to have?
