Really? I haven't posted since May 2011??

Really? I haven't posted since May 2011?? Wow! I guess time really does fly when you’re having fun! We are just as crazy as ever around here! Lizzy is 10 now, YES, 10!! And Luke-Luke is 5, and getting ready for kindergarten!! DANG………I’m getting old! We’ve had some crazy twists and turns in the last several years, but we have made it thru, and are stronger than ever. I’m now working at the hospital on the High Risk Maternity Unit as a Unit Secretary, and I LOVE IT!!! I went from working 5 (8 hour) days a week, to 3 (12 hour) days! I get to do so much more with the kids now! We’ve definitely had our ups and downs this last year. In January 2013, we found out we were expecting our 3rd baby!! Then, at the end of February, I had a miscarriage. We named her Lillian Hope. I was right at 12 weeks when it happened. Mike was so strong, and is still helping my heart to heal. In April, Luke-Luke and I were in a wreck that totaled our Pacifica. We were very lucky. The police officer said it was one of the worst accidents he had seen, and he was shocked that everyone walked away. We were t-boned on the driver’s side front tire area. EMS checked us at the scene and determined we were ok. Luke-Luke had a small bruise on his shoulder, and a seatbelt line on his neck. I am so thankful that he was in a full booster seat. His booster actually tore a chunk out of the inside door panel. I had major bruising and lots of soreness, but that’s great compared to what the damage coulda been! God is so good!! In May, PopPop went to be with Jesus. We’ve had a hard time adjusting to him leaving us. So glad he’s not in pain anymore, and so glad he’s in Heaven, but so, so sad he isn’t with us! My babies have had a hard time with this too. They’ve suffered so much loss this year already. Really, they’ve suffered more loss than many children their ages. I find it sad that my 5 year old knows that when there’s a little awning/tent in the cemetery, that he says, “Somebody died over there.” There’s been several other twists and turns, but nothing that we haven’t come thru together!
