ThAnKfUl ThUrSdAy!!!!!



I am thankful for my family,for without them I would not be who I am today.
I am so very thankful for my wonderful children and how God trusts us to take care of them.
I am so thankful that Samm has found love in a world that doesn't neccesarily understand love.
I am thankful that Bill is going back to work after his back injury.
I am thankful for Jordan's health and every funny thing he does to cheer me up when i am feeling blue.
I am thankful that our river has receded a bit.
I am thankful for life itself.

Invisible!!!

Some days are better than others,for sure.There certainly are busy times coming up for us.The first being Bill heads back to camp on Friday,Samm has a job interview on Friday as well(walmart)and jord is hopefully heading to a summer job at the driving range.Everybody is off doing something.Which makes life exciting.Which gives me time to have a quiet house to do my courses.Life is busy but good.With finally being able to step out my dark place i am ready to get back to work and life.I am now starting to feel like myself again,gone are the curtains and blinds staying closed,gone is the frustration.I want to be able to say gone is the depression but i must be realistic as this is something that will take time.I feel and know that i am on the right path in life.I can finally say that I am ready to go back to church and play an active role again.I miss everyone and everything about our church.I miss the friendships and the feeling of belonging. Since i have been gone god has still been a part of everyday life for us. Till Sunday!!!!Blessings

Happy Mother's Day Indeed!!!!

You know you have finally let go of all your childhood resentment,anger when you can finally have the conversation you want with your mom and she finally understands you.Now many of you know that my childhood was anything but great and I have been so angry with my mom and dad.However i have come to realize that no matter what I can not change the past so why dwell on it.Do i wish that my childhood was different,i'd be lying if I say no as I often thought that.Another realization I have come to is my mom and dad love me and have always have,always will.If things where different I wouldn't have my two beautiful sisters or my loving brother.So why waste another day holding onto resentment?When life is soo short? An update on my brother he is going to be 21 in Sept and so far he has proven all the doctor's wrong.Although he is 15 years younger than me he is such an amazing role model.Yes he is terminally ill,has a feeding tube,rods in his back,a trach and a breathing machine and struggles everyday but he still has his humour and his handsome smile.I know he struggles within but you would never know it.My brother and i are in the process of writing his memoir,something that he wants to do.Not just to tell his story but to share with others what life is like living with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.That there is life after being diagnosed.The medical choices that he has had to make and what other options there are.As well as the most important thing to my brother that what is life without faith?This is still his favorite song..,Mom said I never should have sung this to him.., oops sorry Mom we love you!!!!! Hope you had a great Mother's Day!!!

"A Good Day"!!!!! By Jewel

Where has time Gone!!

Wow,
Has time passed since my last post and so much has happened!
Jordan's foot healed well and he is back to normal but alot more helpful around the house.We are finally in our own place and i must say i love it.It isn't huge or small but it is home.A three bedroom,three floor townhouse and with Samm in the basement i finally have a spare room.!I am so happy and excited for Samm with her prom in two weeks and graduation in June.
PICTURE AT sHANE'S pROM IN pRINCE gEORGE. pWith us almost settled in our new house,Bill is back off to camp and i'm in school so we have a very busy few months ending off with my sister's wedding in August.I am very happy for her and am looking forward to going home.I only hope bill can come with us.Usually when life is this busy I must say I am stressed but i am only happy,very happy!!!
