"TWINS"

Just when you think you are goiing to finally get your life back on the right track, save some
money, get your head on straight..."BOOM", bomb falls right into your lap.

You are preg., yes preg. not a little bit preg. with the normal 1 child, but you find out that the reason you have been so dizzy & had quite a bit of nausa, and let's not forget that I CAN'T KEEP MY MOUTH OUT OF THE TROUF!!!!!!
The last thing on my mind when the Doc. told me yesterday (at about 5:00pm, we had been at JPS since 8:30am) the words

YOU ARE HAVING TWINS

Thats right twins, can you say "OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD", that was the 1st thing out of my sister Jennifers mouth, followed by what she wanted them to be, BOYS, NO MAYBE A BOY AND A GIRL!,

My little sisters 1st words to me were "YOU ARE GOING TO BE SO POOR"

The due date is 2 days before jennifers b-day, Aug. 26th, that will mean that Aug. will truly be the B-day month for the family

It goes like this:

1. Aug. 8, Kimberly & Zach's B-days
2. Aug. 15, Mom & Dads 19th anniv.
3. Aug. 17, Grandma 86th B-day
4. Aug. 20th, Aarons B-day
5. Aug. 26th "twins are born"
6. Aug. 28th, Jennifers B-day

What a month!!!!!!

things will be fine & yes...I will be poor, but at least I will be happy with all my kids around me. Vivien will always, always be #1, but she will make a good big sis when it is all said and done.

"HAPPY NEW YEAR"

The first day of a new year!!!
A chance to start over on things you wanted to do last year.
A chance to make wrong things, right.
New goals, or fine tuning some old ones.
Just trying to find a happy point in your life.
Remembering each day that you should live that day like it was your last, you just never know!!

The last line brings me to the point I came downstairs to enter this blog. Today for some reason I realized something about life. Everyone always thinks "oh that would never happen to me".
Well...I have been trying to get back to the old "me" that always was a positive thinker.
Things, People, Jobs changed all that in the last 7 years. My life is not hard by any means, it really never has been. Yes...Bad things have happened, but everyone has bad things happen.
That IS life, our lessons from God. What we chose to do with them that is up to the person.

My little sis had a dear friend die today.
How could anyone have known that on Thursday, when he simply cut his foot open, went to the hospital to have it taken care of, would be gone by Sunday. 4 days and a good man has died from a blood infection.
How valuable is every second of your life then, when you are faced with that. These types of things happen everyday, but its what we do when we get up every morning, a new day god has given us, how will we spend that day.
I know I am going to be looking a my mornings a little different this year.
