The new year came in with Tristan being the only one awake and ready to party. Hillary, Wes, Poppa and I were headed to bed hours before the fireworks went off at Midnight. Sarah and KC had no choice but to join Tristan. It was a long night for the three of them. Happy New and wishes of joy, love and happiness to all. MeeMee

My family
These past few weeks have made my heart jump for joy and at time just break. I have found that my greatest love is not my nursing career or my beautiful house that my Husband has provided. It is my family. As I look at each and everyone of them, I can't help but cry. The joy that fills my heart is overwhelming. I have been blessed to have a husband that loves and cares for me during both good, great and bad time. He is a man of God and a father of strength and wisdom. He is everything I hoped and prayed for 30 years ago. My Children, Hillary, KC, and Micah were icing on the cake. They have made us proud over and over again. Each of them have accomplished so much in their life so far. And they have so much more life to live. Now that each of them have married, our family seems complete. And that's what makes me cry. (Tears of joy) Most families have concerns with at least one spouse that is chosen by their children ... Not Me. The addition of the Wes ,Sarah and Monica were a gift from God. They seem to blend in as they were our own children from the time we first met each one of them. They all are different, but yet, the same. We laugh and cry together. The times that we are all together are so special.
So, for the last two weeks we have had our children around us. We have laughed at each other and with each other. We have cried, both for loved ones that are not here with us and during the celebration of their father's retirement dinner. We hug, we joke, but most of all we love. As the new year approaches, I can not help but think of all that is ahead of us. We became Poppa and MeeMee during 2008, but I'm sure that is only the start of what the Lord has for us. I love my Family with all I have in me.
