I don’t know how many of you follow Nie and her life after the crash, but in case you don’t I just wanted to share this post<\/a> with you. <\/p>\n

We obviously all know how life can change in an instant. And Stephanie is such an inspiration with how you press forward. <\/p>\n

I can’t tell you how lucky I feel to be married to my best friend. It really makes things so easy for me. It is really what my last post was all about except I felt too silly to say it. Why I choose to stay home and hang vs. heading out every chance I get. <\/p>\n

But the truth is I have been teary (or hormonal) all weekend. Each time think about how lucky I am I feel the tears spring to the back of my eyes. When I look into the face of the man I have been with for more years than I can remember, or when I hang with my oldest son who grew up way too fast and now helps me load my iPhone with new music and movies for our up-coming trip.
\nWhen my middle son tells me that he thought I was only 28 (clearly his charming skills are excellent), or my youngest son who has such a crazy wild spirit I can’t help but embrace it. And then our newest addition, sleeping on my lap with a sweet smile on her face- complete trust that I will make everything all right in her world.<\/p>\n

And all I can think of of is EMBRACE IT. This man, this family, is everything I have ever wanted. And I don’t ever want to take that for granted.<\/p>\n

Ok, emotional post done.<\/p>\n

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
