Blessed

I've caught myself taking inventory of my life lately and I feel so blessed that at times its overwhelming! I have a wonderful husband, a beautiful home, we both have great jobs that we both enjoy and we have the most amazing, handsome, loving son who is happy and healthy. We have such supportive and loving families and it almost seems too good to be true. I find myself wondering when the bottom will fall out because life cannot be this good. But then I turn to God and fall to my knees thanking him for blessing my family and I with so much. I am not deserving of such blessings that he bestows upon me and I wonder why he has blessed us in such amazing ways. It reminds me that everyday should be spent glorifying him and spreading his word.

I'm reminded on a daily basis how life can be so much harder for others. I see some of my students struggling with things that I, as an adult, cannot imagine dealing with, let alone a 13 year old. I try everyday to guide these young children and show them right from wrong and teach them values and instill a love for learning.

This time of year is my favorite. The leaves are changing, the weather is gorgeous and holidays are nearing. I'm so looking forward to the week long vacation I will soon have for Thanksgiving and the two weeks for Christmas. I cannot wait to have Brandon and Brody all to myself...no football...no basketball...no daycare! Just the 3 of us and some good quality time with family.

Brody is doing so much better. After getting out of the hospital he spend another 5 days at home so that his immune system could build up a little. He started having the big D because all of the antibotics killed off his good bacteria. This lasted for 2 weeks and we are finally over the hump after some probiotics replaced his good bacteria.

He is now eating up a storm, moving all over the place and is enjoying his friends at daycare. He is getting SO big its crazy.

I'll try to upload some pics tomorrow
