How Things Are Going.....

I have good days and I have bad days, just like everyone else. I'm staying on top of my meds and feeling good about myself. And it's been a looooong time since that has happened. The kids are doing good. Alex is playing the Trombone and still in Boy Scouts. Katey is reading so much I practically have to rip the books away at bedtime. Emma is still Emma. Cute and wonderful. Always worried about someone or something. But in a good way. She's always been full of love and this is what amazes me about my youngest daughter. She sees the light in everything. Lacey...well lets just say that being 15 yrs old is rough. Of course! However, she is coming through with fling colors. Chris and I just celebrated out 5 year anniversary this past Friday. WOW 5 years!!! I'm shooting for about 100,000,000,000,000 years more. ;) I'm still going to counseling and seeing my doctor on a regular basis. Things seem to be lighting up for all of us. I feel I have to say this, though I believe everyone already knows, I love my family with every fiber of my being. My kids and husband have been through the ringer with me and they have stayed by my side through the whole ordeal. The last several months have been difficult I know, but they are all there to make me smile..even if I don't want to. My mother, sister and brothers (this includes husbands and wives) have supported me in whatever I do. They have been there to listen to me cry or scream or yell or really anything. I love you all very much. Thank you for being in my life. And I also know that my wonderful Poppy is always with me. Right next to me when I need him the most. I can feel him!! Anyway I just wanted to give an update and whatnot's. I love you all and will talk to everyone real soon!!

I was so happy to read this post! Thanks for letting us know how you are doing. I admire you for taking charge of your health. I can already notice a big change in your outlook. What a wonderful Mom you are to all the kids. They are always watching how their parents lead their lives and handle the problems and situations that come up. You are being a good example to them by working so hard to stay happy and healthy. I know how much you love them and also Chris. Congratulations on 5 years as husband and wife! It hasn't been easy sometimes, I know, but look how far all of you have come in that time. It has gone by so fast. I'm so glad you are able to feel your Dad's strength supporting you in bad times. I know he would be so happy that you are taking good care of yourself and your family. I love you! Linda

sounds like things are starting to look up for you Jette. Just keep doing what you are doing and you will get through this. I am also sure that your Dad is helping you through this too. And don't forget, you have another Father helping you as well. :)

love you!
