Hi, we're nuts.

There are times in everyones life that things seem a little hectic, and then there are times when things seem totally out of control. We are so there right now. Buddy has 9 days...9 DAYS! left of school. Six years of work has come down to these last 9days. Its very exciting. But just when you think things are smooth sailing, something inevitably happens to change it up..right? Or shall I say "make like interesting" Whatever, it kind of sucks. I just got done typing up a whole long list of everything that is going wrong lately, and then highlighted it all and ... deleted it! It was so refreshing to delete all that crap. Things always work out in the end, even if it seems impossible, you find a way to deal with it all and make it okay, and hopefully learn from it. I'm not intentionally being vague, I'm just trying to focus on the positive. We are SO incredibly thankful for family who supports us and helps us. My mom, my poor mom is spending the night on some couch at the long beach airport tonight just so she can be here first thing in the morning to come save me with the kids and help me so I can work more shifts. My sister was here for the whole week because she knew I could use the help. My other mom, Sharon, just finished her 3rd surgery in 2 months and still offers to help us when she very well could (and should) only be concentrating on herself. My uncle gave us his only car for the day just so Buddy could get to school, he spent the day walking everywhere he needed to be today, and it was over 100 degrees! (had we known this, we would have never allowed it!) We are just so thankful for our family. And I dont know that saying thank you will ever be enough. Someday, I want to help others as we have seen in our life, we will seek those opportunities and I cant wait.
