TWO YEARS AGO TODAY

H-Friendship
TWO YEARS AGO TODAY I WROTE MY FIRST POST.
My world changed.  My reason to begin with was to document our little family unit as we did life together.  NEVER did I IMAGINE that I WOULD MEET SUCH AMAZING WOMEN,   READ STORIES and POSTS and then had to read them again , know NAMES of  YOUR family members  AND have even gotten to meet some of you face to face. INCREDIBLE…
I love that this BLOG is MINE. 
MY THOUGHTS, MY WORDS, my hopes and dreams ….AND above all
my LITTLES…
I love the written word (off on one of my many rabbit trails….but if you happened to see the TODAY show today …Jenna Bush H interviewing her grandparents and sharing their love letters…Politics aside, you had to be moved. I am so glad that I did not miss it.
I HAVE LEARNED A LOT IN THE PAST TWO YEARS 
ON THE “how to” SIDE, I still know next to nothing!
Help is needed in the technical department.
One thing I have learned is we all have the same hurts, same dreams, same battles….we are all so much more alike than different.  For some reason that is comforting to me.
Stay with me…the winners of the books are coming…Parker is Mr. Math and getting the winners now..
Today was not exactly the normal Valentines date. When you have been married 38 years, the day you celebrate is flexible.
I did wake up to flowers and a gift certificate for a long massage..I also got a sick little man dropped off that has been in my lap all day. He has fever, his belly hurts (his words), has a good little cough and feels totally YUK!
   Pitiful Jack-1
This is his sad face and this is how he has looked all day…yes I let him put stickers on the pillows.

Amanda had her first of two BIG tests tonight so we knew she had to study…and we know how to hold a sick boy….

Congratulations on your blogaversary! We started about the same time as mine was in January. I agree with what you've shared about the unexpected blessings. And it is comforting to know we're not alone in life's joys and sorrows.

I'm so sorry you have a sick one. Our Shelby plus her mommy and daddy had the flue 2 weeks ago. I hate for my babies to be sick.
