I apologize in advance because when I saw the kitchen photos I kind of laughed. I am always amazed at how it seems like we have these phases where everything happens at once. Seems like only a few months ago I was sitting with you having tea and you were saying not a lot was going on in your life. This is what made me laugh. What an amazing family you will be. As Carolee and I like to say to one another "it's going to be messy." By your words it sounds to me like you are finding God, and joy and love in the mess, which in my book makes you great Mom material. <BR/><BR/>Pattie<BR/>p.s.

And, our kitchen is a bit torn up right now too, so find peace in knowing your not alone!!!

Is that better? :)<BR/><BR/>I can't believe the kitchen remodel. When you described it on the phone...I thought it was a big deal...but it really is a BIG deal. I can't wait to see the finished product. You will have to remember to post a picture of it finished. <BR/><BR/>I am feeling a little anxious now too. I am have been doing so good since we got Nathan's referral. But, just today the reality that court is just 3 days away really set in. <BR/><BR/>Heres to breathing and a bit of drinking :)Amy B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14498736201253966177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2877454090421566197.post-12072793819884432132008-01-01T15:24:00.000-08:002008-01-01T15:24:00.000-08:00This is what your pictures made me think- "holy cr...This is what your pictures made me think- "holy crapola." And crapola is NOT holy. ;-) Wow. Just breathe. And breathe. And breathe. And keep drinking beverages that help you breathe. And keep talking to those friends who remind you of who you are. And then remember the only thing one can do is to continue taking those steps forward... one step at a time.<BR/><BR/>I can't wait to see more pictures of sweet baby Abe (a nickname that I've been thinking about when it comes to thinking about you and yours)!<BR/><BR/>Good luck tonight with the Biggest Loser.

Love that.<BR/><BR/>Trust that it will all work out. How can it not?! <BR/><BR/>Also, someone once told me that worrying is like praying for the wrong thing to happen. Not that I have this figured out, but a good reminder in the midst of big stress.<BR/><BR/>Hugs to you. And wishes for peaceful dreams!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
