My laptop bit the dust last week so I resurrected my old desk top that we haven't used in years. I decided to go through everything that was on here and I am so happy I did. Here are a few precious pictures I thought I'd lost. These were taken shortly before we moved into the house we live in now. Ethan has just turned 6, the triplets were 4 and Carter was 2. I want so much to reach into the pictures and hold my babies. Especially Ethan, who is almost taller than I am. Where did it go? It goes by so fast and it just slips through my fingers. And now I'm sitting here crying like a baby. But really, I just wanted to post these so you all could see how cute they all were... all chubby and shiny... my babies.
When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left and could say: "I used up everything you gave me." ~Erma Bombeck
I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear. -Nelson Mandela
"We cannot live for ourselves alone. Our lives are connected by a thousand invisible threads, and along these sympathetic fibers, our actions run as causes and return to us as results." – Herman Melville
Education is the great engine of personal development. It is through education that the daughter of a peasant can become a doctor, that a son of a mine worker can become the head of the mine, that the child of farm workers can become the president of a great nation. It is what we make out of what we have, not what we are given, that separates one person from another. -Nelson Mandela
I am a single mom of six precious children! They are six little pieces of my heart, somehow walking independently of my body. My goal these next few years is to make sure they are going to be happy, healthy and successful.
Here's to new beginnings! Stay tuned!
