I know, I know

I know! I know! It has been awhile. It has been crazy as school has started back up and I have taken on additional duties in my district. It is hectic. The days go by too fast - not enough time to say I love you to everyone I need to - not enough time to cherish every morsel of my two beautiful kids or my best friend Matt. I have been reminded of just how precious life is. I am involved with quite a few message boards within the scrapbooking community and on Friday morning we received word that one of our friends had passed. She ws driving to work and a 22 year old girl ran a red light and crashed into her car. Our friend died on impact from head trauma. She left behind two young children and a world of people who are better for having known her - even if it was just online.

It was a wake up call - there so much stuff that goes on in our lives that doesn't mean a thing - and so many times we get bogged down in it and lose sight of what is really important - God, Family and making this world a better place.

I love God.
I love my husband.
I love my children - Ethan and Maya.
I love my family - mom, dad, sisters, grandparents, aunts, uncles, neices, cousins, etc.

I am blessed to have married my best friend and have two wonderful children with him. Ethan is the cutest, smartest and funniest little man - oh and stubborn. But I love him more than anything! Maya is the sweetest, most beautiful and happiest little girl - love snuggling with her and LOVE that smile.

I truly am a better person because of who God has blessed me with in my life! Now to only be able to say thank you enough and soak them all in!
