The Last Few Weeks

Well . . . They have been a little crazy to say the least.

I have said before that I am writing this blog to keep track of my children's childhood, so I am going to focus on the positive things of the last few weeks.

Bottom line: My Mom had to suddenly have her 6th spinal surgery. The last few weeks have been filled with not only hospital visits, but major life decisions. While I believe that Mom WILL get stronger, I haven't gotten the feeling that she will make it all the way back to physical greatness. In recognition of this, Jayson and I decided that it was time to make some changes . . . So we are making the biggest one possible to date! 

We bought a house this week - one that can accommodate our family on 2 levels . . . And Mom and Eric on another level.

I am kind of patting myself on the back - I fulfilled an impossible list of requirements for children, husband, mother, and brother.

We close at the end of the month and move right before Independence Day - the irony is not lost on me . . . 

We will enter a new phase in all of our lives. There will be challenges, but mostly there will be peace, comfort, and family - I know in my heart that I have made the best possible decisions for MY and OUR families.

Let the good times roll . . .
