  3. Jump for Joy? Whats NOT to Jump about? I can't think of a reason to be bummed at all. You know the year I'm in...and I am celebrating everything.
    Oh yeah...and soon, I'll be able to jump even higher!;)

  4. The little miracle growing inside me is the first reason that comes to mind! However, there are so many other reasons such as my family, friends, health, employment, a roof that is ours over our heads, etc...

  5. hmmmm the first thing that comes to my mind is that Parker has finally learned how to give himself his own insulin shots. The proud look on his face as he did it makes me jump for joy :-)

  7. I jump for joy everytime I hear Madeleine say "Mommy," even when she says it non-stop all day long. I also secretly jump for joy when Madeleine writes on the walls, although I tell her not to. I don't erase what she writes because her writing makes my house feel like home.

  11. Last night siting across a table from 4 beautiful women. All four, students I taught some 10 years ago. They are so wonderful, and I am so proud of them. Everytime we get together they tell me again,as we laugh, how much I made a difference in their lives...but really it was those young ladies who changed my life! That's what makes my heart JUMP for JOY!

  12. My children make me jump for joy and having you take pictures of them before Pena goes to college would make me jump even higher. (It would also make me cry every time I look at the pictures because it's going to be hard with out "Brudder" around.)

  13. When we were at mass last week, 2 yr old Rose was too small to see over the pew in front of her. When she started crying, "I can't see Jesus!", her big brother, 7 yr old John struggled to pick her up to which she squealed, "I see Jesus!" A big brother picking up his little sister so she can "see Jesus" makes my heart jump for joy!

  14. Seeing your beautiful pictures makes me jump for joy-not to suck up or anything:) Also, feeling the first few kicks and flutters of my baby and hearing Kenna say she will actually share her toys with her brother! We need pictures done desperately and I have been meaning to write you:)

  16. There are so many things that make me want to jump for joy at this time in my life ~
    ~ I feel like jumping for joy when I think that I get to meet my little girl ANY DAY NOW
    ~ I feel like jumping for joy each time I see my boys playing together and nurturing their imaginations.
    ~ I feel like jumping for joy when I hear my children sing, and see the happiness it brings them to do so...
    ~ I feel like jumping for joy when I think of all the possibilities that our future holds...
    ~ Who am I kidding ~ I can't jump at all right now, jeesh, I can't even bend over!!!!!

  20. My heart jumps for joy and skips a beat every time I hear my twins say a new word, for it shows speech therapy is working. For a shoot with you, I'd not only jump but I'd twist and shout! :)

  22. I jump for joy when my 5 little boys are playing together and my oldest is explaining to everyone why Jesus is awesome (it happened this morning)...actually I shed a tear too :) But I would do some serious jumping up & down if I could get a picture of 5 little ones looking in the same direction before surprise #6 comes along!!!(shhh!)

  23. I jump for joy being able to actually "jump" with my kiddos! These past two years, going through cancer, surgeries, and remission, has taught me to value the little things that I do with them, even if it's just running in the backyard. <3 :)

  24. What makes me jump for joy is watching Addison play soccer, and actually follow her coaches directions 100%. It is so cute, and for 21 months, pretty good!

  26. My 12 yr.son did not make it into the leadership elective in Jr. High and when he received the news he burst into tears. It killed me to see him so upset... but during these Jr. High years when everything is so un-cool, I was secretly jumping for joy that he cared so much :).

  27. As a single mother of an 8 year old (of whom I have sole custody), I rarely get a moment to myself. Occasionally, I have a good cry session when I am experiencing the "weight" of it all. What makes my heart jump for joy is when my son silently comes and brings me tissue, rubs my back and kisses my cheek. It shows me that I am raising a wonderfully compassionate young man. - claudia diaz

  28. My grandkids make me jump for joy! They give me a reason to live. I love when for no reason at all, they hug me and say "I love you Grandma". Just melts my heart. Love them to pieces!

  31. I am jumping for joy that my daughters (6 months and 2 1/2) are starting their relationship. Just the sound of Audrey's voice makes Abby giggle. I can't wait to watch them grow up together!! (Thanks to Wee for the link - I love your photos!)

  32. I jump for joy every time I see my daughter do something new. I mean I literally jump for joy, squeal and do my version of a happy dance. She always giggles and tries the new skill again! I love it! And I love her! Of course, my husband thinks I am a bit crazy...but what does he know! :)
