Gratitude

Today at work I visited with a mom who lost her daughter this summer. She was 13 and on dialysis, this is how I knew her. She had a beautiful smile and laughed at her doctors. Now this family has found out that their two sons have the same disease. They are starting all over again and so scared. I haven't seen them since the funeral. Her mom could barely look at me, she was so tearful, but still managed to ask about Kate and Leah. Over the last few week at the hospital, I have spent a little time with my cute friend, Liz. Her daughter just received a liver from someone else's daughter who died too young. Liz's story is heartbreaking, but has a happy ending. She has dealt with it with such grace. She is simply amazing and I think about her and her daughter everyday. I just put to bed my two beautiful, healthy daughters and can't help but feel so extremely grateful for my family. Tonight I will say a prayer for all those who are hurting and say thank you that I am not.

Another book

Can you tell I've been reading a lot? I just finished the second book in the Hunger Games series. I loved it. It's been a long time since I loved a book this much. Like I said before, it's not my typical book, but I loved every word. The third book comes out in August. I'm going to have a hard time waiting....


Identical Babies

Sometimes I feel like I am back in 2007. Leah looks so much like our little Kate. Although, I have to admit, Kate was much fatter! I love these little girls so much!

Good Books

I just finished two good books that happen to be written by my cousin. They were both great reads. I reallythink this and am not just promoting my talented cousin! Enigma is written on a younger level, written for the junior high crowd and is about a guy who wakes up one day and everyone around him gets knocked unconscious. It is a super creative story, I really can't compare it to anything else I've read.


Sunset is a more adult book about a girl who falls in love and finds out she not as human as she thought. Again, this is a really creative book and I couldn't put it down. Both of these books are available on lulu.com and amazon.com. Author is JB Fisher. Check 'em out!!

Good Book

Why did I love this book? It's about teenagers in a fight to the death battle that the government uses as a "game" to remind the lowly citizens who's in charge. So not my thing, but I loved every word.
