Well, I am staring a year older in the face....literally. A few hours and I will have another birthday. These times make me very emotional and spend so much time reflecting on my life. It's funny, I told Chad last night that I want time to stand still. I love my life, my husband, my kids. I feel soooo fortunate to be healthy, happy and here. I told him that I feel like every year is the BEST year. And he was very smart to say, "Why CAN'T every year be the best year?" All most of us want is to be happy and when we do have happiness, we don't always take the time to enjoy it. Stop and smell the roses they say. Well, I am going to try to stop and smell the roses. Take in all the sights and smells around me. Actually, sometimes, do nothing but sit and play with my kids and read and watch tv and play on the computer with them. These are the things that make me happy and if something were to happen to me tomorrow, I would not want them to remember that I was always running around doing chores, stressing about the house and the groceries and everything I have to do. I want them to remember that no matter what age I was, I was always willing to stop and smell the roses with them.
