seven.



7 years. 7 years of our almost 9 years of marriage have been lived in the crazy world of a brain injury. ben and i shouldn't be here with the injuries we both suffered but by the grace of God we are. i never liked the reminders of this day and it's emotions, the emotions are not as fresh but they're still there. ive been asked if it would have been easier if ben just died...and ill admit that there are times we've both wanted to walk out the door but id never wish my husband were dead...love keeps us together. i still feel robbed of the life i thought we'd have but at the same time look at all the blessings and healing God has done and given. God blessed me with a man who refuses to give up and given me the stubbornness (sometimes a downside) to fight on. we're grateful for my family and the friends whom have stuck with us and the new friends God has blessed us with who accept us for who we are. we still hope and pray for more healing in bens body but also accept that this is life and despite it all He is good even when we don't see it all the time or think it's the good we want...
 play this song on repeat at times because its soooo good...

hellooooooo...

we are fine and well! i know it has been almost a year that i have posted...time flies!

i actually have an excuse besides being busy with life! i was blocked out of blogger for some time and finally realized after a few changes that a lot of the log log in info was under my bil! he switched some things around and that effected this blog! when this blog was originally started it was not set up by me and under other info! so, after figuring it all out i could finally log on!

ok, ok yes life kept me from spending all my time trying to figure it out as well. id work on it, get frustrated and give up...a few times over! sat down for a few minutes today and finally got it to work!

since it is not originally under my login info (and i don't know how to switch it over...if you know share!) i have yet to decide if i will just start a whole new blog or just continue with this page and try to figure it out later! if we do switch it ill let you know!

yes, so know that i have figured it out ill try and post more...but you know life!

i leave you with a few photos that we had taken last oct, a week after lil man turned 1...yes one and now he's almost 20 months!








and a few recent...
