There is no question that everyday I miss my parents. I miss them for me but most of all I miss them for my son. Grandparents are wonderful and I wish my parents were here for him. I know they are in spirit though and I also believe it is their "wings" that got Carter and I though some really rough patches in the past two years. There is nothing more painful than having a doctor say that there is nothing else we can do but wait and then there is the waiting. Carter was in God's hands and nine hours later turned around. We joked it was the binky but as the the doctor told us...he had never seen a baby ween off an epinephrine drip. We are truly blessed.
Sometimes I forget that I had a heart attack and surgery last January. I had a 70 percent blockage in my LAD. A doctor just yesterday called it the "widow maker". I had never heard that before and suddenly I was reminded of my mortality and how truly blessed and lucky I am. As Women we tend to put everyone before ourselves but it important to remember that you need to make your health a priority because without you, who would take care of them! I have every intention of scaring every girl that comes into my son's life:) Seriously, with his eyes I am in trouble!!!!!
So, as the weather outside is frightful and the fire is so delightful and since we have places to go...plow the snow, plow the snow, plow the snow:)
Have a blessed, healthy, happy and WONDERFUL Holiday and ditto for the New YEAR!!!!
To my sister in Iraq...come home safely. I love you! Thank you for laying under the Christmas tree with me for so many years and smuggling our jelly jar shots of Coca~cola. You started my addiction!
Until next time..LISTEN TO YOUR HEART
