Not a Creature was stiring, not even a mouse. Bode just slept from 11-6 without crying!!! I got him up once to eat at 2 but that is it! Another blessings. The bummer part, I now am up waiting from him to wake up, cause my boobs HURT! Somedays, it seems hard to find the blessings in your life, right now in my life I cannot go 20 minutes with noticing another blessing from Heaven, I veil has been thin, and at my house it still is, The Big Guy Upstairs is watching my house constantly for the past 5 days and he is sending blessings very often. Thank you Heavenly Father... I love him!
I keeping thing of the Messiah, For unto to us, a son is given, unto us, a son is given, Oh, unto us a son is given, unto us. Thank you to everyone on the other side who hugged and watched over my child for the last 29 years, so when he came to me he already new what love was! Thanks for giving me a son! I just received the most price possession!
Things I am thankful for Bode, Cliff, my Bed. Each time I lay my head down, my bed folds in around me and instantly becomes the most comfortable, warm place. I do not belive this was happening a week ago, but the last 5 days... man I love my bed.

Early Christmas
Christmas came early at the Linford house hold. We got the best present, anyone could ever imagine. On 12/12/07, God delivered Bode. To be honest I wasn't sure I was cut out for motherhood, or that it was what I wanted, and now that I have him, nothing else seems to matter. I feel as if God delivered the most precious gift to me, and has in trusted me to love and take care of him. I believe this will be and has been the best Christmas yet.
I have a new respect for my parents, who knew the love they really have for me, for the sacrifices that they have made for me... and yet this new life comes into my life and they love him, as I love him. Hours after his birth, ALL of my sisters surrounded my hospital bed, to show how much they love me and to show the love they have for my child. I feel so blessed to have such friends, to drop everything some traveling many, many miles, while others are hurrying around the city, to make sure I have lunch. And then they gathered with me and Cliff, and held my child. As each of them did, it was amazing to see the love on their face for this new life. It was not there child, they did not care, they loved him anyway, without strings attached. I feel so blessed to have a family with so much love and support.
So for the past 4 days my family has spun circles around me, calling, going to the store for me, bringing in meals, and really the only thing that seems to matter to me... loving bode. Thanks to them for showing me what life is really about, I just had a huge powder day, and yet it doesn't compare to that day I remember in my head, that I need the snorkel to get down the hill. I like to make each turn as if it were the last, live each moment as if it will never happen again, As I hold bode in my arms, I feel as if I am making each turn as if it were the last... I am so glad we are an eternal family, so each time I hold him, it will never be the last! Last Sunday in church we sang the song about the first things that saw Christ were the Cattle... I am so blessed that the first things that saw Bode, were my family!
