...in a time lacking in truth and certainty and filled with anguish and despair, no woman should be shamefaced in attempting to give back to the world, through her work, a portion of its lost heart. ~ Louise Bogan 

i am starting a daily devotional thing, this is in the opening. somehow, something about it, spoke to my heart.

i have wanted to give back for some time. i am hopping this will give me the push.

btw i am writing this after taking my @mbien and am still awake so excuse me if this goes off course. 

today was my sons 12th birthday.i can not believe he went from this

to this.........

you can hardly tell it is the same kid.

time goes by way to fast & i am just sitting back enjoying the moments.

don't get me wrong it is not all rainbows and butterflies over here, but we are making do and getting by with the help of some awesome family & friends. 

and though as it is our life will never be quite normal, maybe in our own way we can make it something even better........

i really hope so. 

so happy birthday to my boy. who fought his tuffest battle before he ever left the hospital. you were so strong then i don't care if you want to sit back and coast for a while.

but i did like your idea about scuba diving and i don't think i am going to let that dream go anytime soon.

happy birthday cam & to wyatt, ethan, mary, & our little stars i love you all to the moon and back ~ mommy
