And we made it to the end of 2013

                                                          So here we are at the end of 2013!

This year year by far has been one of the Most hardest year ever.....Along with 2011-2012!
2013 had me filled with so many emotions.  Most sad,anger and loss of faith!  So much has happened this year.  It's safe to say this year has sucked horribly! 
My father's cancer had returned and so we had many trips to Cleveland Clinic.  The emotions during the time were just all over the map.  Then had a situation with my MOST favorite niece ith the world!  After sitting back and gathering my thoughts about the situation with my niece, I know it will not be long before I win the war and have her back.
  This weekend my new nephew AJ was taken to the hospital.  He was born 6 weeks early and at 3 weeks he was still having a hard time breathing.  Thank goodness for my brother in-law for doing CPR and EMT getting him help on time he is now doing much better and breathing on his own! I myself had found something and still getting it checked out... Starting adoption process...
                                                      
So many things were bad about 2013.....but I do have some good memories about the year. I had a great trip to Portland Oregon to see my sister in-law and her kids!  My husband took me to PA for our 12 year anniversary. Helping my friend with her new buisness and re do her shop. 
 Looking back on everything I now realize that GOD does not give us more than we can handle!  I have come across some hard rocky roads to get to a good path.  So BRING it on 2014!
I am stronger and ready to take you on 2014!  No,the hard times are not behind me but I know how to conquer all.  With Maggie and Sarah loving warm cuddle at my side I will make this new year a good year!
   So I am bring in this year with good heart and good health.

                                            

Have a safe HAPPY New Year Y'all!
