We were all walking down the hall way of our hotel rooms to go to the pool for a swim. When Brittany pierce yelled “yelled last one theres a rotten egg…” as everyone took of running, Pierce completely biffed it.

That was last summer at one of our basketball tournaments in albany. Ever since that moment its a huge joke through the whole team. Actually she would probably kill me if she saw i wrote about this little incident on here=]  But hey some of the memories i’ll NEVER forget…

When it comes to Obama… He’s not my favorite person in the world but at the same time he’s the president so theres not much i can do about it. It seems like he MIGHT pull us out of this recession but then again he could be all talk also… so i don’t know. I don’t really care at this time right now.

             As Jenae woke up early that morning 6 months ago, little did she realize life would be changing and with it a test of her emotional strength, her relationships, and her faith. The first thought that popped to her mind was “no! I want to go back to sleep!” She did not want to move even a muscle. Finally she gathered enough energy and walked down the stairs to find her two a half year old little boy playing. It was the beginning of another normal day. She walked into the kitchen and made her usual two scrambled eggs, covered in cheese with toast and jelly and two-three strips of bacon. Her husband Josh walked down the stairs to the smell of eggs, bacon and toast. “Andrew still needs to be dressed” Josh told Jenae. Finishing her breakfast she then gets him dressed and ready for the day and heads off to work by 8:10. She arrived at the Dr. Office to do her job as a medical assistant; she already couldn’t wait till her lunch break at 12:15. Lunch came surprisingly early that day it felt like, and the rest of the day went just as quick. She didn’t make it home until 5:30, just in time to make dinner, do the dishes, pick up the house, and put Andrew in the bath tub so he could be in bed by 8:00. She finally got to relax and spend time with Josh for a little bit before she went to bed at 10:00, just to get up and do the exact same thing the next morning.

              The screaming alarm clock went off early the following morning, at 6:30. As Jenae got out of bed on that normal boring day, she remembered she had a Dr. Appt. at nine. She did her normal routine, and then took Andrew to his grandma’s. She then headed to the doctors office, for a regular check up. That is when and where her adventure started. She found out some terrible yet exciting news….. She was PREGNANT! Jenae has always wanted kids ever since she was a little girl, but when her mom died eight years ago, they found out Jenae had the same disease that her mom died of, called Ehlores-Danlose Syndrome (EDS) and she can’t have kids. I mean obviously she’s capable, it’s just very dangerous. There is the chance of her and/or the baby not making it. Her first reaction was, “no, that can’t be true”, and then she kind of freaked out. When she told her husband she cried because this wasn’t suppose to happen. He was in shock at first. The thought of abortion went through their heads, it was also the recommendation given to them by the doctors for the sake of saving Jenaes life. Josh was a little more for it then Jenae because if something were to happen to Jenae, he would be left with a three year old and a newborn, but this is what Jenae has always wanted. She knew this pregnancy wasn’t suppose to happen, but the way she looks at it is they were doing what they could not to get pregnant, so God must have put this baby here for a reason. Jenae couldn’t bring herself to have an abortion. After a lot of talking and prayer they decided to go through with the pregnancy, trusting God would pull them through the greatest trial of their lives.

That day came faster than ever. It feels like just yesterday Jenae called and told me the news. Now it’s here, it came, it’s past. I woke up that morning, to get ready to go to the hospital. I remember standing in the kitchen and my mom showing me the text message. It was from Jenae, it said “I love all of you guys and remember our God is big!” she sent that text to everyone at 4:28 that morning. When I read that I couldn’t help but get tears in my eyes. I knew she probably didn’t get much sleep that night.                                                                                                                  

 When I look back I can se a clear picture in my mind of walking down the hospital hall way and seeing my Aunt Rhonda, Uncle Jim, Grandma and Jenae’s mother in law standing outside of her room. They told us they were preparing her for surgery. When the doctors rolled her out of her room in her bed, the way she looked, I…I can’t even explain. It was like she was all drugged up and she didn’t look like herself at all. After they took her away we all went into the waiting room, and sat there. Just waiting to hear that everything was okay and that everything went perfect. Everyone was just sitting there. My Grandma was talking to Josh’s mom and my dad and Josh were talking, but even with all that commotion going on, to me…the room felt so cold and so lonely. I was scared to death I might never see her again! She has been like my second mom my entire life. Even though in my heart I knew God would take care of her, there was still that little chance something could go wrong. I couldn’t even imagine how life would be without her, but all we could do is trust God to pull her through this HUGE trial in her life.                 

      At about ten o’clock, the doctor came out and told us that we had a baby and he was doing really well. He didn’t want to breathe when he came out so they hooked him up to oxygen. The doctor said he saw nothing unusual for an eight week early premature baby. He wasn’t mentioning anything Jenae. You could see the worry in everyone’s eyes, when finally my Aunt Rhonda spoke up and said, “What about Jenae, is she okay?” The doctor told us that he didn’t know anything about her condition. He left once the baby arrived, but he said he would send in a doctor who knew more as soon as possible. You could feel the tension build up in the room. We heard the first part of good news, we had been praying for, for the last eight months, now please just tell us the rest I thought to myself. About half an hour later another doctor came out and announced that Jenae was fine. Although it was only thirty minutes I would have to say, it was the longest thirty minutes of my life. He told us she would be in recovery until about twelve pm. So at that point everyone decided to go home, since she and the baby were both okay.                  

     Jenae got out of the hospital on December 12^th, one week after having the baby. Although she was able to go home the baby had to stay for about a month. It was looking like baby Joshua got out of the hospital January 2^nd. He is a very healthy and beautiful baby. He weighed four pounds, six ounces more than they were expecting. Jenae is doing extremely well.

When you say the word technology the two main things that pop into my head is computer and cell phone. I almost always have my cell phone on me. The only time i don’t is if I have got in trouble and got it taken away. I don’t have text messaging but I talk on it often too much.

Probably the thing I do on the computer the most is Myspace. I email sometimes, but if I am on the computer almost 90% of the time it is Myspace.

In my opinion both things are like an addiction. You watch people who can’t stop texting, its like their life, if they don’t have their phone it’s like they go through withdrawals. I’m not saying texting is a bad thing at all, I just think that some people make it their lives.
