If I keep waking up at 4am I am going to have more time for this blog then I thought. I am wide awake and thought I might as well blog for today since all 3 of my precious kiddos are still asleep. I am not even sure what I want to get out of blogging. I really don't like to post my negative opions. I put all my faith into God and let him lead me and he has always taken care of me no matter what our goverment is doing to our country, or what rules the school/church has put in place that I may or may not like.
I could not get the whole beggining in one post so I am contunining it. I realized I didn't give a background on what Camp Hope is. It is a week long cancer camp for kids who have or who have had cancer. It is an amazing place where kids can go and everyone has some sort of scares from their cancer. I am not able to go back and volenteer much anymore because I have 3 young kids but I do hope to go back someday. Mike still goes and volenteers and is on the commity.
I also have amazing parents who have raised me and instilled in me that family and friends are the most important thing in my life. They did with little when I was going through cancer treatment to give my brother and I nice christmas' and birthday's. As I sit here blogging looking outside at the several inches of snow on the ground I am reminded of one winter when our heater broke and mom would turn the oven on at night to warm the house because they could not afford a new heater. The oven caught on fire one night and would not bake anymore. Mom could only cook in it on the pre heat setting. She never got a new one until we moved into her childhood home when I was 16. I remeber the little space heaters all over the house and they where not as safe as they are today. We got our heater fix thanks to the donations of our church but we had to give up an air conditoner. We had a window unit that only kept one room of the house cool then everyone else had fans in their rooms. Again we didn't get an air conditoner until we moved when I was 16. I am going to end there and contniue with more of my life story later. Please give feedback as to if this stuff is boring to read.
That picture reminds me A LOT of Jessica. Your post reminds me of my childhood, minus the cancer part. This is your blog, you can do whatever you want with it. Good work!
