The Climb

I was having one of those days...you know what days I'm referring to. The kind where you are just a little down. Nothing seems to be going your way. Your mind starts playing games with you. You start feeling sorry for yourself. You can't understand why things have turned out the way the have. Where did you go wrong?
Yeah...one of those days.

I try not to dwell in "those days" but sometimes they can get the best of me.

I was driving down the street, listening to the radio when a particular song came on. I started to cry. Sometimes you just need those little reminders to remember it's not the things that happen to you, it's how we handle them that defines us.

No matter what's going on in life, all the minor disasters that happen that seem catastrophic in our daily lives...none of it will really matter tomorrow. It's how we move on.

We've got to keep climbing because there will always be another mountain...

The Climb
Miley Cyrus

I can almost see it
That dream I’m dreaming but
There’s a voice inside my head sayin,
You’ll never reach it,
Every step I’m taking,
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking but I
Got to keep trying
Got to keep my head held high

There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

The struggles I’m facing,
The chances I’m taking
Sometimes they knock me down but
No I’m not breaking
The pain I’m knowing
But these are the moments that
I’m going to remember most yeah
Just got to keep going
And I,
I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on,

There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb

Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith baby
It’s all about
It’s all about
The climb
Keep the faith
Keep your faith

Pics!

So here is a bunch of pics! I hope you enjoy!

Long time no post

I know I know...I'm sorry.

So I don't have a lot of time so I have to make this short and sweet.

IT'S SUMMER! WOOHOO

Katelynn is really excited to be out of school! This year was very challenging for her but she ended it wonderfully! She received tons of awards including: Leadership, Penmanship, and Creative Writing. But my proudest moment was when I found out that she had achieved 100% on her state CRT test! Way to go Katelynn!!

Justin is enjoying his summer. He got out of school a week before Katelynn. He's more excited now that Katie's out with him...that means no fighting to get dressed in the morning so he can get her to school!

Ciara is still a turkeybutt. Cute as ever and 2. Need I say more?



I don't have enough time to add pictures, but I plan on making a slide for the last couple of months and adding it soon.

I love you all!!
