Mayeaux Family's Life Journey: "Have No Fear, The Mayeaux Family Is Here"

My Miracles

I AM SO BLESSED !!!
I never would have dreamed that the Lord would have blessed me so much! I am now the Mother of Three wonderful children. Doctors said after numerous surgeries for endometriosis that we would never conceive on our own. But God! He had his own timing and plans for us. I can remember praying for nine years for our hearts desire to have a famiy! Witin those nine years my relationship with the lord did run it's emotional roller coaster! I did finally get pregnant! We were so excited! But there were complications. This was an Etopic pregnancy. We would have to give this baby back to God . Although traumatic and sad ,how awesome of God to give us an answer that we could become parents. I was so Blessed and honored that the Lord would touch me in this way to have been able to be pregnant even if it was for only 7 1/2 weeks it was still a miracle! I did have to have surgery to remove that etopic pregnancy. Before I was brought into surgery I did have to sign papers that if neccessary the doctors could have to do a hysterectomy.But in that moment I was given complete peace. I was confident and comfortable with whatever road the Lord was taking us on. If this was to be my only pregnancy then praise the lord to have proven the doctors wrong and for answering our prayers. After my surgery I did find out that the doctors tried all they could but they did have to remove my good tube and ovary and that our chances of conceiving were now even less. But God once again showed everyone how mighty he truly is. When man says No he says YES! Exactly one year to the day that I had my surgery , Rick and I were in that same doctors office having an ultrasound looking at a baby who was to be a full term baby who would be Emma Faye Mayeaux born 10/15/2003, Then followed by Ava Grace Mayeaux04/27/2005, And Then 8 Months ago we were blessed by our third child Ray Anthony Mayeaux12/29/2006. What an awesome God we serve! My life right now although it is busy, My worst day is still a blessed day! Thank you Lord for these precious gifts you have given to us!

"Have No Fear, The Mayeaux Family Is Here"

We "The Mayeaux Family" NEVER have a dull moment!! This past Sunday was no exception! I went to Sunday Church at the theatre since I worked the nursery on Saturday!The Message of course was AWESOME! Thanks Pastor Peter! Upon returning home Rick wanted to cut the grass, but the Lawnmower was broken.So off to retrieve a mower from Uncle Will on the Westbank! Rick took Emma with him, while the other two sleeping precious angels stayed with me. Well here is were it gets interesting,so hold on! We have some friends that live here in Norco also. Aaron & Kelly watched Copper for us when Rick and I went for our AWESOME weekend. Anyway I get a phone call from Kelly letting me know that they were watching Nic & Stephs dog "FRED" this weekend! She was calling me to ask to keep an eye out for Fred, because he had escaped from their yard. After hearing of Fred's plight, Ava Grace made the suggestion of "HOW BOUT WE HELP GET FRED"? So , I called Kelly and told her that The Mayeaux's are on the way to help in the search! A little bit if backround here about this dog: Fred belongs to a good friend of mine Stephanie!The girls call her NEE NEE! So the girls KNOW Fred!Emma plays with an imaginary Fred sometimes! When they saw UNDERDOG they actually thought it Was Fred! So this search was personal! I pack up my two fellow search team members and off we went. We went street by street from the River Road to Airline Hwy. We asked people in their yard , on bicycles, anyone! We went a looked in the park, everywhere!! During this time we have the windows open and Ava is doing her famous call "FRED, OH,FRED, WHERE ARE YOU?" "FRED< COME HERE TO ME NOW"! Needless to say we also had Ray in the back trying to repeat"Fred"! His basically came out "ED"! But I have to say it was a family effort!We rallyed back at Aaron & Kelly's only to find out, NO FRED SIGHTINGS! So we all venture out once again for our search for "UNDERDOG"! At this point Emma& Rick are now back and are a part of the search! So with so many of us searching Aaron decides to try and look at Nic & Steph's house hoping to find Fred there, while Rick and I continue to search the neighborhood! As I am driving around, Ava decides she is finished looking for Fred and she wants to "GO HOME AND MAKE PUP CAKES"! Before all of the excitement we were supposed to be making cupcakes, So her mind shifted to the cupcakes instead of Fred! So I told her that we would make one more trip to look for Fred! I was going rather slow when I thought I saw a glimpse of Fred's red collar! So I stopped the car and called for Fred. Fred stopped for a moment and then went to run off again! I sternly yelled "DOWN FRED"! With that Fred stopped and I now had "The Package" in my hands!! YEY!!!WE FOUND FRED! Ava was so excited!Fred too!!LOL So after returning Fred SAFE & SOUND, we went home and made our "PUP CAKES", and they were fabulous!!
