So excited for Summer. Tonight she was invited to go with Monse Monteverde and her family to see the Olympic gymnast perform since returning from London last month. We kept it a secret from Summer, as you can imagine she was over the moon this week when she learned she was going too. Then to top it off, I entered a drawing today for back stage passes to participate in the meet and greet....yes, Bil's good luck is wearing off on others in the family, I was one of 15 selected. Well, this created pure elation! Ana was as excited as the girls. I haven't heard all the exciting details yet, but I do know, they got to meet all of them and loved every minute of the adventure! Can't wait to hear all the details tomorrow.
Every day, take a minute to be grateful for your many blessings!

New Tennis Shoes.....
As years go on, we become older some traditions changes.
This year instead of the traditional Easter Basket,
The Easter Bunny (aka Nannie)
treated you each
to a new pair, your choice of tennis shoes.
For whatever reason,
you're both really into tennis shoes
these days.
You both love the new pair of Converse you each selected.

My Sweet Love
Today I'm grateful, grateful for so much....in this two-fold chapter of my life I have been enriched with so many blessings. And although it is easy to get busy in the daily routines, I do not take for granted the fulfillment in my soul and heart.
19 years ago tomorrow, I began the next journey of my life. The way God had it planned but having no idea how enriching it would be-full of laughter and love.
Bil and I will celebrate 19 years of marriage tomorrow, March 20th, the first day of Spring, as we do every year. Bil is a pure blessing in my life, he completes me. Supports me in whatever endeavor I envision, and most important, when I can not see my purpose clearly he helps me realize it.
Just like he did 11 years ago when Mason was just a baby. That gift we were given 11 years ago we still cherish to this day, being the parents God wanted us to be by making sacrifices to raise Mason and Summer. These last 11 years have been such joy. We really didn't know how much we would love being parents-to a son and a daughter. A beautiful gift that we treasure daily. Mason and Summer bring so much delight to our being and our relationship, they round us out and complete us. I can't imagine life with out these three amazing beings that have become my purpose and reason for what I do daily. Thank you God for trusting in me to love and and care for Bil and completing our family with Mason and Summer.
Before having Mason and Summer...I look back at those years before, when it was just him and I. What fun it was, long conversations about everything and nothing. Movies, road trips, dinner with friends, cards, games, football games, basketball games, shopping, running errands. Didn't matter what it was as long as we were together.
Bil I love you for being you...committed, sensitive, loving, tender, sweet, dedicated, fun, silly but most important trusting in me, believing in me and picking me.
I will love you always and forever Honey, Happy 19th Anniversary.
