The summer was really spent working as much as I possibly could to get caught up and before I knew it school was starting back. Bruce is focused on getting stronger and physically fit now that he is finished with all treatments. He is so strong and he is always looking forward, never back. I must be honest and say that I process everything after it is over. I have given myself a lot of time to think and pray over all that occured last year. To digest having a new middle schooler, a new high schooler, a Senior with prom, graduation and all that comes with it, and with Bruce and his illness. I am forever thankful we had so much help and support. I am also blessed to have strong faith instilled in me by my mother. I have felt very introspective over the past months, fighting the urge to try to get caught up on everything we put aside last year. I found a wonderful blog that I am enjoying www.bowlfulloflemons.com. I am working on getting the house organized and it is just a fun blog with good ideas. Our life last year was filled with such serious issues, it is now time to "lighten up" and get back to enjoying the small pleasures. Therefore, for me, I love to organize the house. I will begin to post backwards and share some of the amazing times we had with relatives this past summer!
Making my way back,
Joanne
