Life has tender moments

Life is crazy sometimes. It is funny how things happen and you never understand why or know how you will get through things. But somehow you just do. Andy and I have been looking for a job for months now and still haven't gotten one. I guess that we just haven't found the right job. I know it is out there, and yet it is so far away. I have been feeling better and as the weeks go by, I get more energy to do more things. I have tried not to get stressed out, but sometimes it just doesn't work. Worrying about how things are going to work out, jobs, kids, and etc. We found out the other night that my Uncle passed away. My heart just broke for my family. I know that he isn't in pain anymore. It hit me that you never know what is going to happen so to take each day and live for it. Enjoy every moment. I know for me some moments are really tough and I just wish that I could hide but I know that wouldn't solve any problem. I am grateful that I have a wonderful husband who takes care of me and the kids. He is always there to help when needed. I have come to appreciate the little things. The kids are a huge blessing in our live, they bring joy most of the time. I wouldn't change things at all. I am having a easier time looking towards the future. Maddie has crawled out of her crib, we moved her to a big girl bed, and she is doing great. That means no more crib for us. The kids are getting easier to handle the older they are getting. I am grateful that I have each one of them. I think that we are ready to take the next leap of faith and do what we need to do. I know there is a plan for everything, it might not be what we want to do, but if we follow it, it always turns out for the better. I have come to learn alot of things over the past couple of months. Never take things for granted. Life is full of storms, you just have to learn to dance in the rain. I hope that someday I can understand everything that has happened and take the experiences and help someone out. Thanks for listening to my feelings, and my vents. I can get my feelings out on my blog. It is also a journal for me to write to.

Long overdue

This blog is long overdue. We have had alot going on. So here is a little update on us.

Andy is still looking for a job, he has gone to some interviews. He continues to do really well in school and has almost completed 14 hours already!!! WAHOO!!! Lys graduated from kindergarten and is on her way to 1st grade. (I feel old) She is enjoying the summer and having fun with her friends. Chaser's graduated from preschool and is looking forward to going to kindergarten. He is very excited because his really good friends are in his class. He has been enjoying the summer and playing with his friends. B-Will has been keeping us busy, he went to summer preschool and loves it. He likes to play with his friends and ride his bike. He says that he is going to be a racer just like grandpa. Miss Maddie is getting so big. She is talking alot more and loves to be outside. She follows the kids around and wants to be with them alot, we are in trouble when they go to school because they keep her busy. Me well I got really sick the beginning of May and they didn't know what was going on, then the end of May, after several er visit and almost being hospitalized. I had a hysterectomy they found that I had adomenosis (where the glands attack the uterus making it very painful and it was scary. I also had to have blood transfusion. I am slowly recovering. I feel better then I have in months!!! I am planning on going back to work, and I am still looking for a job. The kids keeps me busy and so does pampered chef. Oh I forgot to add that 5 weeks after surgery I fixed one of B-Will toys with a screwdriver and just set it in my lap, well Miss Maddie fell down some of the stairs so I got up to get her and the screwdriver fell on the floor just as I put my foot down and I stepped on it, puncturing my foot and falling which in turns sprained my ankle. Yes I have to worst luck in the whole world. Hopefully things will get better. Not to mention that 2 weeks before Chaser's fell and gave himself his first concussion. I told the nurse that we are just going to make a standing appt for every week, so then we won't be in there. I think that brings us up to date. I will get better about posting.
