So we were just hanging around the house this Labor Day and I thought it would be so fun to check out everyone's blogs and see what they have been up. I checked my friend Emily's and have been just thinking and thinking ever since. So what would you do if you were in a tragic accident and your life was changed forever? That's what I've been thinking about. She has a link to a site that tells the story of a family that was changed forever. (If you want to read about it, go to nierecovery.com)
So I just thought how grateful I am for the life I have been given. So in honor of living everyday to the fullest I feel like I need to be better for my children, for my husband and for me and make some changes in my life. So I am going to play horses with my girls just because I can. I am going to go outside and enjoy the flowers and gift of nature just because I can. I am going to just sit on the floor and snuggle with Luke just because I can. I am going to be a friend to someone just because I can. I am going to talk about Pokemon cards with Seth until he gets sick of it just because I can. I am going to kiss my husband just because I can. I am only going to enjoy the moment just because I can. I am going to ride my bike just because I can. I am going to be a better daughter of God just because I can.
What a gift we are given in this life and oh how quickly it can change. Be grateful for your life and the blessings we are given and live every moment like it might be your last.

So true, love that!
Long time, no see! Your family is SO cute! They are growing too fast. I know how that is. How's Sam's new job? Sounds like a good one.
