I'll just be honest here....I really have no idea as to what in the heck I am doing but oh well that's life. I just felt like I had a lot to say and a lot that needed to be heard by a bigger audience then my husband and children. I was just sitting here thinking how absolutely amazing life is and the twist and turns that happen. A little more than 5 years ago I was a drug addicted drunk who had just married a man I had only known for 6 weeks and I didn't know a thing about him except he knew how to party and he was nice to me most of the time. I was filled with absolute hopelessness and despair. I absolutely resented everyone who had ever been in my life because no one had ever tried to save or help me. Shortly after my husband and I got married I realized I was pregnant which that alone was an absolute miracle due to the fact that I was diagnosed with cervical cancer 2 years before and had over half of my cervix taken. The moment I found out I was pregnant my life changed. I decided then and there I was going to quit living the life I was living. My husband and I got sober and we found a higher power. That doesn't mean that we didn't struggle. I was on bedrest for the majority of that pregnancy. I had to have 2 surgeries and was in the hospital 10 times. Our first son was born 2 months premature. After some time in the NICU he finally came home with a heart monitor. Two weeks after he came home he went back to the hospital for what the doctors thought was menigitis. That's been over 4 years ago and he is a healthy, very active, very smart 4 year old. Twenty months after his birth we were blessed with another child. We've been through our ups and downs. Legal problems due to our drug use and all sorts of other stuff that was mostly of our making. It's just absolutely amazig that in 5 short years we have bought our own home, we have two wonderful little boys, we have a faith that has yet to be shaken (even thought the devil has tried),we have friends and family who love us and respect us and I am actually the class mom for my son's easter party at pre-school. It's amazing because if half of these people knew me 5 years ago they wouldn't want me near there child let alone their child's school. I am constant amazed and blown away by life and the powers that lie inside.
