Happy 45th Birthday Tom!!

Well today is Tom's birthday and I say we have gone full circle in the drama's of life. It was a year ago today that he became so sick and that was an awful thing to go through. I am grateful for this past year that has taught me a lot about myself. I am grateful for my husband. He is such a good person and sometimes he forgets that. He would do anything for anybody, if he has the time. Our problem is time. I am so thankful that I was able to meet him and marry him when I did. We met at church when he was investigating it. I felt bad that he was sitting by himself. I went up to the front of the church to ask someone something and I turned around and I caught his eyes. I will never forget that moment. I love his eyes and I felt like I was looking at my best friend that I had not seen for years. It has been a bumpy road and yes at times I will admit I have felt like bailing, but I can not deny the love we have for each other and our children. Everybody has problems and I don't care who you are, I think we are meant to have problems to help define us. I am grateful for trials and tribulations. At the time it is hard to think that way. This past year I have grown more aware of my surroundings and have become a lot stronger. I am glad that we will be able to celebrate his special day and that he can know how much he means to me. I love him so much. I hope he knows that.
