"there are THINGS that we NEVER want to LET GO OF and PEOPLE that we NEVER want to LEAVE BEHIND. but keep in mind, that LETTING GO isn't the END of the world, it's the BEGINNING of a NEW LIFE."

Who Are We???

i suddenly realized that for those who are new to our blog or who don't personally know us, you don't know our "story". in 8/2001, my husband and i were in an auto accident which left me paralyzed from the waist down. a sad incident but an answer to a prayer and the lesson that i needed to get me back to who i really was, back to what we really wanted out of life, and to mold me into who i want to become. to add to the chaos, they also discovered that i was pregnant with our daughter. she was born at 28 wks, weighing 1 lb 12 oz. and was the miracle that we needed to glue our family together. we can't imagine things piecing together any other way.
so that's the "story" and where we're currently at in this journey of life towards the greater picture, never taking blessings for granted and by learning day by day as we go along.
when asked if i'd ever take back that awful day which changed our lives forever, i simply replied "no. i wouldn't. i've learned so much and we live a great life" and i meant it 100%!
this is the challenge that i, that our family, has been given and we're going to continually hit this head on. NEVER GIVING UP and remembering that things happen for a reason, even if we don't understand what that reason may be.
"it's all mental and it's all in your attitude"
this is a family blog. it's my venting blog. it's my rambling on blog. it's our fun blog. it's our life blog.
enjoy!
