Blogging

I am new to this whole blogging thing and am learning as I go so bear with me... for the last year, I have not taken any pictures other than the two of my kids which are posted but feel the time is right to start again. It has been a long, difficult year with many changes and discoveries along the way. My life is NO WHERE near where I thought I would be a year ago today BUT... "It is... what it is..." my new favorite saying because it says it so well!!
You may not agree with what I write... you may have an opinion of me for all that has happened... and you are entitled. Please understand that although I have not always chosen my "path" I have tried to walk that path with joy, a reckless abandon where love is concerned and have always thrown "all of me" into every new turn! I have been burned a few times but would not trade a moment and have few regrets! For today... I am learning that the path of being alone is not always a bad one... I have learned that in the quiet times, I have found more out about me than when I was being so busy trying to find myself. I have learned that I am so blessed with a wonderful, supportive family... and I have learned who my true friends are! There is nothing like the support of those closest to you... when someone can cry with you along with laugh with you, when they pick you up each time you fall down, when they pray for you daily, sometimes minute by minute to get you through the day... this is love!

My great kids
