Really???

Has it really been two months since I posted anything??? Okay I have an excuse I have lots of them but this post isn't about that.  Today is my 10th wedding anniversary.  It is amazing we survived this long.  We had a bumpy start.  Somebody told me that they felt that us losing our marriage license on our wedding day was a sign that we should have never been married. But that is for a whole different discussion. We have been through a lot in ten years.  Two college graduations (almost three), losing a parent a cousin, a grandparent and an uncle, we gained a parent and two kids, two miscarriages, buying one house, countless jobs and countless cars.  Lots and lots of good times.  There have been several trips to the beach, one to Hawaii, lots of trips up North.

Andrew turned eight yesterday and I am so thankful for him. He is become such a deep thinker and asks these amazing questions that I don't always have the answers to. The meds have helped slow him down but he is still crazy Andrew. We upped the medications and it was like he was on speed. He couldn't sleep and was kind of zombie like. Then there has been a few moments wher

The one you feed...

A few weeks ago Lee text me this story.  One evening, an elderly cherokee brave told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. he said "my son, the battle is between two 'wolves' inside us all. one is evil. it is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. the other is good. it is joy, peace love, hope serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith." the grandson though about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "which wolf wins?..." the old cherokee simply replied, "the one that you feed"  One I have heard 100 times but one that I needed at that moment although I didn't know it.  There have been several situations that have happened these past few weeks and I keep thinking of that story and I have to remind myself which wolf I am feeding.
