I am a somewhat young mom of a *now* 15 year old daughter, a *now* 10 year old son, and a 6 yr old son. Our family's lives have changed dramatically over the last 10 years. From loosing my first husband (of almost 8 years) to giving birth to our son 2 months later, to finding (and marrying) the new love of my life. I am so blessed! This blog is my walk through the tragedy, the loss, the new chances, and new life for our whole family.

The start of summer and a suprise....
I haven't posted in a while and I do apologize for not writing more frequently.
The school year officially wrapped up for R on Tuesday of this week. She had been sooo worried about being held back this year because her math grades have not been good. She's done well in everything else and she will have a lot of work to do this summer just to be ready for the fall.
Today, Jeff (and the rest of the gang of First Day) had to sing in Mountain Home, AR and he left here about 2:30. The surprise is that R actually reached for him and gave him a hug and said "I love you too".
This may not sound like much for most people but it's huge for R! I'm not sure if she's just been stressed about getting thru to the end of the school year or what but, she wouldn't even hug me sometimes.... She would just lean in to get a hug but never put her arms around anyone... Even me. So, today was a nice surprise and hopefully this summer won't be quite so stressful for her (even though I know she's not going to like doing homework but, it's gotta get done.)
More to follow.....
