Travels

The roads we travel.

I have taken tthe scenic rout.
I thnk becoming a mama so erly saved my life. Becoming a Nana erly has defnitly saved my sanity.
If you love rainbows, you will lern to love rain. and in order tto apreshate the rainbows , you cannot keep your head down lookng at the mud.
While I look at rainbows and all ther glory, I rmembr tthat Heavn is my home......but Im not homesik yet.
Ther is a world of diffrense btween being a cancer survivr and a cancer warrior. an ass-kickng world of diffrense.
The most imprtnt thng my mom taut me is you don't stop playing whn yuo grow old. You grow old when you stop playing.
The most imprtnt thng my dad taut me is ther is nothing unforgivabl.
The most importnt thng my kids taut me is......wate......I'm still lerning tthat. Amazng things. Wondrus things. Somtims tragic hurting things. We have and continu to help eechothr grow.
