Time gets away!!!!!

I am sure that time has just sped up!!!! I am going to start making time for things I really want to do... yeah now that i got that outta the way..   I am so anxious to get moved in to our house.   Its been 15 months living in this small place.  I have learned so much this last year.  I don't need much to be happy.  I do want to have room for the kids to come stay.  I hope they want to come stay when their in town.  I miss them terribly.  I sure didn't know how  blessed I was when they all lived close and were over on Sunday afternoon for dinner.  Ah the good old days.... Those days are  gone.  All of our kids are living away. Work and school and the military have taken them elsewhere.  Except for Marki and Shane. I'm so glad shes here. We hang out allot. Shane works nights. Shes adapting. She keeps pretty busy does allot of crafty stuff.  Her and Dallas are so very talented.  Dallas and Eric and Grahm are in Illinois for the summer.  Just got done on skype with them. Its amazing.  Fun to see them and talk.Gram's growing up!!!! A big little boy--love him. Brady is in Afghanistan, has been since January.  What a hard few months its been.  I pray everyday that he will stay safe. Am so proud of him. Elise is such a strong young woman.  I cant wait for them to be able to be together.Maybe have a baby --- yahoo that will be so fun. I have such a ache in my heart for one of his great big hugs....Their the best.  I love my life with Jarrod. He is so good to me.  I love just being with him.  I don't think I have ever loved a man like I love him..... I am so very blessed.  I have such good kids and Tyler and Natalie and awesome too... Want to get to know them both better.  I hope that all of them can see the Jarrod that is so kind and loving and fun to be around.  His way sometimes is hard to get through,  for the kids . Don't know why.   Family is so important to him.  I think hes mellowing out.  I just think he needs to lighten up and except them and their choices... after all ours haven't always been the best.  That's what life is though learning from the choices that we make.  Dealing with the adversities that come our way and treating all people good.. I was thinking today that no matter what I'm just going to be nice--- no matter what!!! I love my life!!!!!
