LIFE BEGINS AGAIN WITH HOPE!!!!!!!!!!!


(((((((((((Friends)))))))))),

Been a while since I have posted.  So much has been going on....son finally graduated high school.  Hip Hip Horrah....lol....I have started school...oh lord it is hard, but I am getting the hang of it....I am taking classes for medical billiing and Medical Coding on-line.  I have to do it on line because as most of you know I have my beautiful g-daughter to help take care of.

Samantha my daughter is finally going to start her internship in the fall at a great hospital...very very proud of her...she is also working part-time so....gaga that's what kendra calls me is with me most of the time....Gawd  I am getting old and my body is telling me....lol....but it's all worth it....heck even my mind is telling me....but I am very happy I am going back to school......moving forward is always a wonderful feeling.

My friends dare I say that life is coming together for my family.  I pray so. I actually went to a concert with a wonderful girlfriend last evening....it was a great time she also has a son who suffers terrible with addiction....so we just sat and laughed and enjoyed.....can't remember the last time I did that....

Life is beginning again.....I feel it.....I still miss Chuck and probably always will but I am grateful....so so grateful.......my life is good.....lots of love and hope in it these days. So life begins again.....by the grace of God.

I still can not beleive my baby graduated......it was a bitter sweet moment.....I had saved a cross that belonged to his dad and I had it put on a chain.....and I said now zach dad is always with you even today.......life goes on....

Love to you all,
Andrea

I just wanted to say how happy I am for you!  I'm so glad that things are going well. You sound very content in your life. I know it's been a long and winding road, but they say "good things come to those who wait." Peace to you and yours...


Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain.

Girlfriend it's hard to believe that Zach has graduated.  Seems like yesterday that you & I were talking about football cleats.  All of you have been through so much.  The kids have had a stellar example of how to lead their lives.  I am so proud of all of you.  I know Chuck is too.  We may not have our men to hold, but as long as they are in our hearts they are always with us.  I talk to my Tim every day.  I know he looks down on "his girls" and helps to keep us safe.  I have no doubt Chuck does the same with "his boy & his girls."  You're going to be great at your new career.  You never cease to amaze me.  Much love and blessings to you and your family.

Live strong,
Karilynn & Pipers Kitty aww
