Time to Blog

I used to wonder what people blogged about. "Is it like twitter, where you get to vent?" maybe. I would like to blog about my life, as it is today.
I will start by saying right now in my life, I am overwhelmed, but happy. I used to think I couldn't be happy without the husband and "normal" life of marriage. I was wrong.
When the marriage was done after 14 years together I wondered WHAT NOW??

First, I had to learn to make my own decisions for myself, but still share decisions about my kids, with their dad. My three amazing kids. I will get to them later.

I hadn't worked in roughly 12 years. Holy moly! I have to get a job!!

Here we are at my children. Three. Julia 13, Evan 10 and Logan 7. Each amazing, wonderful kids!

My Evan has been battling an autoimmune disease for 5 years. It presents itself as Systemic Onset Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis. This is is diagnosis. This disease has not been typical for one day!

Evan is sometimes an active 10 year old. Sometimes he has to be carried upstairs, because the pain in his ankles or knees or whatever is ailing him that day is too painful. He generally misses a great deal of school, so I need to work at home. (My job, I will get to another blog.) Did I mention that Evan is so smart, loving and sweet! He will still get a snuggle in when he can! He's passionate about space, science, math and really anything he puts his mind too! He couldn't swim. All his friends were swimming in the deep end. I told him he couldn't go in the deep end because he wouldn't take swim lessons (did I mention he's stubborn!). Well Evan spent the next two hours in the shallow end teaching himself to swim! Awesome!

Julia is also anything but typical. So kind hearted, smart, beautiful! Takes everything to heart. Hates when Mommy or Daddy are mad at her. Feels she needs to keep the peace, but stirs the pot with her littlest brother more than anyone else!

Logan is my baby and so so sweet. He can make me smile one minute and infuriate me the next. Smart, funny, so loves his mommy!! If Logan gets a minute beside me when I am still, he gets in as much snuggle time as he can!

Again, my children are amazing! I am happy... So much happens in one persons life! That's another BLOG!!
