Sorry for the missed day! I'll be playing catch up!
2. I have an insanely stressful project in the works right now. I had to read Wuthering Heights. If you are ever faced with the choice of reading that book or spraying an angry lion in the eyes with pepperspray, pick the lion. You might die, but at lest you won't have to have read this ridiculous travesty of a book. Two more days and it's over!
It's officially over! The project is through and I'm never giving a second thought to Wuthering Heights. Ever. Our presentation went relatively well. It was as boring as all get out, but so was everyone else's presentation. I'm really glad that if I had to do that awful presentation, I did it with the girls in my group. Thank you Sarah, Jen, Liz, A Lo, Paniah, and Sakaiya for making that project bearable. we did it! Now, on to the next project.... wish me luck!
3. My mom just called me from downstairs to ask what I was doing. She then asked if I would come downstairs and hang with her. I wouldn't trade moments like this for anything. She is my hero. I'm the luckiest girl
What can I say? My mom is my absolute hero. Everything I've learned about being strong, I've learned from her. She has done an amazing job raising her girls. She has been with me through every single crappy thing I've faced in seventeen years and every single happy moment as well.
On May 16, 2008 I sat in an orthopedic surgeon's office and was told that I had a malignancy that appeared to be Eewing's Sarcoma. The last thing they did before I left was an X-ray. I layed down on the table in that ridiculous piece of paper that they qualify as a gown, tears streaming from my eyes into my ears, soaking my hair. My mom sat down beside me, took my hand, and told me I would be riding bikes with Lance Armstrong after this was over. I will remember that moment for the rest of my life. Three years later. My mom still provides me with every single bit of strength I have each day. I can only hope that if God's plan for me is to have or adopt children, that I can provide the same kind of example for my kids as my mom has provided for me. I don't know what kind of mom I will be, but I absolutely know that those kids will have the best Nana in the world, behind me of course (: I love you mom! Thanks for your example and unconditional love! Because of you, I'll be riding bikes with Lance Armstrong!
I love my mother as the trees love water and sunshine- she helps me grow, prosper, and reach new heights" -Terri Guillimetes
A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts. ~Washington Irving
