Wow, it’s been ages since I have taken the time to sit and update this blog.  Things have been, to say the least, hectic.  Many changes have been going on with the children and myself.  Many months ago John and I have decided to divorce.  We have chosen different paths and we part peacefully. 

Since making the decision to change my life I have made many changes, both outwardly and inwardly.  I have become more open minded and have begun the process of finding myself.  I took a huge leap by dying my hair.  It may seem like a small change but it has been empowering.  I feel so much younger and happier.  I have also lost weight.  That has been great positive change for myself as well.

The kids have been doing great.  My house is full of laughter and there is no greater gift.  Olivia will be starting college in March.  We had a delay with Liv starting college because of issues with her financial aid.  But Liv is now excited to be finally starting.  Will is doing very well in college.  I actually received a note from his college recommending Will for an Academic Competiveness Grant.  I’m very proud of him.  Mollie, Noah and Harley continue doing well in their studies as well. 

I thought the winter weather would slow Noah’s socialization down.  But, it has not.  Noah is my social butterfly and has made some good friends.  Friends that I approve of and are a good match for him. 

This winter has been tough weather wise.  Nick is getting some much deserved down time.  Liv has really only been riding in her weekly lesson.  It’s been so bitterly cold that it’s not practical to do much more riding than that.  But soon the flowers will be blooming and show season will be upon us.
