He said..."A matter of perspective"

There is one man in this world who I do look up to. Today he said: "I am reminded today that everything's a matter of perspective. I can't choose everything in life...but I can choose my own perspective of life!"

It's 10:30pm. On this day, this time, 5 months ago, I found out that my Daddy had a massive heart attack. I was on the phone with my mom and sister trying to figure out how bad and if I needed to rush home. I did, and three weeks later, he died. It was a horrible day. I terrible day. A day I'll never forget, and haven't gotten over. I hate that day.

Central time, it's 9:30pm. On this day, at this time, 3 years ago I was having a blast swimming in my neighbors pool. I was pregnant with Allie and doing handstands, laughing, and really talking to my Mom. I was happy. In just a few short hours from now, my water will break, I will go to the hospital and deliver our baby Allie at Noon tomorrow. What a wonderful day that was.

Both bring me to tears. Both envoke emotions inside me. I can hold on to either day and smile or frown. I can make a choice. I have that ability, it's called free will.

Heart Walk...

I designed this T-Shirt for the American Heart Associations "Heart Walk" this past Saturday. It was a 3 mile Run/Walk to help raise funds and awareness. I was proud to do this for my Daddy.

Girls have been growing like weeds. We are planning on going home soon, which I think we are ALL very excited about. We love being here, but it's time to get back into OUR house and OUR routine. Skye will be home as soon as he can, and life as we know it, will get back to normal!
