I think a lot of times I post moments in my life that bring happiness to me and my family but trust me there are days that aren't all smiles and laughter. I'm sure many of you have the same struggles: finances, career choices, making sure your children have the things they need, raising them with values and a knowledge of who they are and the potential of who they can become, the monotonous day in and day out of laundry, dishes, and vacuuming, and trying to juggle and balance a busy schedule.
Lately not only have I dealt with the trials of my own family but my siblings have needed me also. I'm so glad that I can be that person for them but it does make it more crazy and hectic. My sister is struggling with her relationship with my parents because of the choices she has made, so she was staying with us for almost a week. Then my brother's girlfriend had a huge falling out with her family and she is now staying with us until she starts school. At least she has been helping out were she can, she even did my dishes! Wow! (I wouldn't mind her sticking around!) Then my sisters boyfriend got beat up by one of his roommates last night, so we had the police over here and now his stuff is in my garage. Luckily he found somewhere else to stay last night. I should start charging a fee. hehe. I hope that things will soon settle down...

I hope things settle down soon for you also! I keep trying to remember that what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger... which is really a lame quote actually, :) because sometimes you feel like it WILL kill you... Hang in there. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
