summer vacation...really?

6/17/2015

0 Comments

 
It's summer vacation.  So for me, that means busy, busy, busy!  In fact, I'm exhausted!  I've put nearly 200 miles on my car in three days and I haven't even left the county!  At one point yesterday, I was feeling...crabby.  I was frustrated that my house was a mess and I was too busy running kids from one end of town to the other and then it hit me...Jean, appreciate the "little things in life."
​

I had to share this because even I find myself taking things for granted.  Five years ago, I couldn't leave my house without the help of an adult.  Now, here I am taking Winona to math class, basketball camp and friend's houses.  Plus, Sharon, John and I have run so many errands (groceries, Target, Costco, oil change, etc).  

I am so tired, yet I'm so happy that I can still function!   Life is a gift and it is so important to take time to appreciate ALL OF IT!!!

    After living the first 33 years of my life thinking I had Spastic Diplegia, a form of Cerebal Palsey, I was correctly diagnosed with Dopa Responsive Dystonia (DRD). I am on new medication and doing things that I never imagined possible. This has changed the lives of my husband and two daughters. I truly believe that I am living a miracle each and every day. Life can't get any better than this! ​
