Happy Birthday, Brendon!

(I am shamefully overdue on this post. We celebrated Bren's birthday, but I just have not had five minutes to post!)

It's official. Today you are a man. The last 18 years have run by like a rushing river! I am so proud of you! I know you have had some struggles and obstacles in your life, but I know you are strong and you will come out on top. You are so quiet, but I know that there is a lot cooped up inside of you, waiting to emerge and conquer the world. Hold onto your dreams and never forget who you are. I love you with all of my heart!Love, Mom

Allee's Scare

Allee hadn't been feeling very well. She was looking extremely thin and we were kinda getting worried about her. She ended up in the hospital in intensive care. I won't go into detail because I don't know how much she wants to share, but there for a bit things were looking very scary. I had to call Alex who was still in France and he was worried and anxious to get home. He arrived Sunday night. Monday afternoon I texted him to find out how she was doing, I was so concerned. This is what he sent me....Whew, HUGE sigh of relief! I was never so glad to see that smiling face! Love you girl!
