#9 and my bestest friend

Have I really survived nine bike trips?  Has Lee? Well almost he will be home in the afternoon The honest reason I struggle with the bike trips isn't because I am home alone with the kids it is because I worry Lee won't make it home.  My biggest fear is I will get a call saying Lee was in an accident.  Is it logic?  Maybe.  

Lee is my bestest friend and the thought of raising these four holligians without him is overwhelming at best.  I really miss him when he was gone. he balances me.  I come up with some crazy ideas and he can bring me down to earth.  Do we survive without him here ?  Sure but that is all we do.  Next year we will for certain be going somewhere.  Even for a few days.  

I am glad Lee can go on these trips.  He gets to see some pretty amazing things t I love hearing about his adventures.  I hear some scary stories as well which is probably why I worry.  

So here is o another adventure done and to bike trip 2016 :)

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.
