Kind of funny really when we
as grown adults, question what God is doing in your life, when we should really
know better that he always has something wonderful planned.
Being a momma at the young
age of 17, I knew no other life really. Trav worked nights and traveled a lot
for work, so My kids were my everything, daily routines is what I thrived off
of. It was a pure joy on most days to be a momma to my four kiddos. Supporting
them on the side lines on whatever sport or activity they played.
It is what Trav and I
took great pleasure in doing and still do in all these years.
So I will admit although not
proud of it, that early this year when my baby girl got her license and started
working and taking summer college class and was never home much anymore. It made this momma a bit sad.
You see her and I were attached at the hip.. It has been that way for 16 years now.
And my Twins were off at College and loving it by the way.
Our oldest was happily living on her own working and doing her thing.

This momma may have fallen
into a deep pit of sadness. I did not feel “needed” anymore.
Let's be honest here.. My husband really deserves a
medal of some sort. He was always so patient and understanding and went out of
his way to love on me and spend time with me.
Of course We are so thankful
that he has a regular job now and is home with me every night.
But my heart ached knowing
that “That Season” of raising kids was gone.
BUT.. Little did I know that
there was a new season forming..
Few months ago our Ciera
moved back home, and with her she brought us a little precious gift growing in
her tummy.
Our Penelope Grace will be
here in November.
She is now engaged and
because of that soon to be marriage we will “officially” have Presley as part
of our family too!
But wait! There is more…
Trav grew a step son from a
past relationship, and that son (yes we don’t use that step word in our family)
has come back into our lives. Of course we welcomed him and his lovely wife
with open arms. The bonus of that relationship is that they have a little girl
named Lillee who is now a part of our family..
AND they found out they are
expecting another girl who they are naming Amanda Maria.. Coming in December..
So, if you know me than you
know I am jumping up and down with excitement and my heart is full.
Four Grandgirls in a year! Whoohoo!!
AS you can imagine Auntie
Jazzy and I are thrilled and we may have even gotten t-shirts made.
Even though We may have been having a little fun playing the part the last 3 years.

So The Hammetts are growing
and we are excited about this new season. So I am warning you!
Be prepared for the many pictures coming soon!

For these precious babies, this Nana
