My blog

I am reflective today that it has been a year and half since I started this blog. There are many parts of that time that are a blur. Things happened so quickly and I have endured so much. I wanted to help people with this blog. The one thing you may notice is my journey with God. There are days were I feel weak and days where I am very strong. The key to remember is the road to God is not perfect. It is an ever evolving journey. The point is that you seek him. I seek him each and everyday! Not that I always make the right decisions but they are decisions made with the best I have at that moment. As I read and learn and listen to God my journey changes. I pray for each of you that God gives you peace in your life.

Priceless

It is priceless watching your children grow. Yesterday I watched Alexa wash her hands as she sang Happy Birthday to her self twice. I taught her to sing it twice to make sure her hands get clean. I watched Anthony and Bella sing to the baby dolls "Go to sleep sweet baby". Just as I sing to them. Alyssa told me she admires the spark in my eye! I watched her sit at the table and try so hard on her homework and then play with her siblings. Jake prayed in our family prayer so mature and blessed. He really makes me say WOW!
I love being in the middle of all the kids and enjoying each moment but sometimes it is nice to step back and enjoy the view. I am very proud of my children and the little person's they are becoming.
Please join us each day in a prayer for peace in all situations life may bring us. God did not promise the easy road to heaven. I will stand firm in God. I stand firm in each and every situation in my family.
It is all temporary.

Results and Reality

Well I still have my mammogram to go but I got my lung results. My lung is not better but it is stable. I will take that!!! I was very concerned with all the unnecessary stress I have been under lately.
I am amazed people want so desperately to hurt other people that they do not think of the children that are involved.
I am just a mom loving, nurturing, caring and raising my children. When do others realize that the children need to be the focus. They are real human beings with feelings.
They need their MOMMY to be healthy and here for them.
When do you stop blaming other people for the life you have created for yourself. May God forgive you for not taking care of your responsibilities and help you find direction in your life. Wasting time being angry and in denial you are missing out on God's gifts that he gave to you.
May God grant peace to this situation.

Happy Birthday Jake!

Happy 11th birthday Jake! You came into this world at 11:48pm on October 12th. After eighteen and half hours of labor I was exhausted but full of joy! You were a very good baby "my snuggle bug". I am so very proud of your caring heart and your desire to be a better person. You have worked very hard in therapy and I am glad you are at such peace with yourself and situations around you. I am in awe of your honesty and ability to reason. I could not ask anymore of you then you are doing. Your love for family is amazing. I am so excited to be here and watch you grow each and everyday. I love you my baby!! You brighten my days!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEXA!!!!

Happy 7th Birthday Alexa!!!!

At 8:03am your were born. You were so beautiful!! I remember Aunt Amber trying to go get you for me from the nursery and could not find you. She did not want to let me know you were not in the nursery but it was all over her face. To make a long story short the nurse's had taken you the long way around to my room to show everyone how beautiful you were. You have always been so strong and determined. You also have the most loving and caring side to you. You are the little mommy and you have the greatest heart!!
You make each day a joy and I am so proud of you. Thank you for letting me be your mommy and having the joy of loving you each and everyday! My little Princess!

Update

Well it has been a while since I have updated everyone. I saw my pulmanonlogist this week after having to start steroids again. He has placed me on 5 different medications to help my breathing. It is a month to month check on the radiation damage done to my lung. I am not letting this get me down. I am keeping my faith and moving forward. I have zero time to feel sorry for myself I am here watching my beautiful children grow up and loving my soulmate each and everyday of my life. My baby girl turns 7 tomorrow. She is growing up so fast!
