The end has come..... but the beginning is just about to begin

This weekend marks the end of the summer for Zach and Zara, another year has flown by without a moment of hesitation. As we begin the new school year we have been faced with a few minor set backs as some may call them. I am choosing to look at them as learning moments and an opportunity to grasp life and learn to live every moment. I began the school year as many of you know with the death of Miss Grandma Carole. She was a woman that never let anything pass her by.. she spoke her mind... and she gave with a generosity that I have never seen before. I hope I can someday be half the woman she was. This last week we faced the death of two very beautiful people in an accident that effects 3 people. A young lady was distracted for a moment and hit my friend Missi and her daughter Geneieve as they were walking down the street. This weekend we will place them in there forever resting place. From Missi I take the ability to love to the fullest and Gen the perfect abilty to be a beautiful child.
From my own children I have learned strenght and forgiveness. They have shown me to grow and live and love no matter what.
Tuesday marks the day Zach becomes a Junior and Zara a second grader. I am amazed everyday as they grow and develope into their own independent person.
This year is a new beginning for everybody, I am sure it will be filled with many new memories and laughs and a whole lot of love. I want to take this moment of time to say thank you to all of you for being in my life and teaching me to become who I am today. I have learned to say I love you as much as possible, you never know when it may be the last time. Thank you for being you and I love you all.
