Happy 50th birthday to my husband who is celebrating in heaven today! If Rodney was here, he would probably be working on the girls' rooms we are remodeling, which we are trying to finish up. Or he would even be crazy enough to be outside working. Nothing would stop him, lol.
I can't imagine the celebration up there today. Wish we could all be together. It seems like an eternity without him somedays, and sometimes it seems like just yesterday. But I know we will have our time together again. Until then, we go on, just as he would want us to.
We're finding our new normal I suppose. Kris graduated with his master's in library science and is hoping to move to WA and plant some new roots soon. Clayton is finishing up his degree in cyber security/forensic science (probably have that wrong), and hopefully he and Alliyah will have some news for us as she graduates nursing school this year as well :D. Emma will be finishing her junior year this spring, dating an awesome young man, attending prom, and looking towards college. And Erynn is in 7th grade, becoming a teenager and all that goes with it. Yikes.
Time doesn't slow down! I've been doing a bit of work from home, and plan to look more seriously after I get this job done, and the house back in order. One thing at a time.
We are all stronger and cherish each day because of what we went through as a family. So make each moment count, and make memories that last a lifetime!
