A big THANK YOU!

I don't even know where to start. I can't even express how thankful I am to all my family and friends who helped out during this difficult time. Your out pouring of love and prayers is just astounding to me that even now I can't hold back the tears. All of your love and support has made my recovery so much easier.

I keep thinking about what I should take away from this experience. I have been reminded of the amazing amount of love and people that surround my life on a daily basis. I could not ask for a better family and group of friends. Because of all of you my journey through life is all the more enjoyable and easier to get through hard times. It has taught me patience................Well at least got me on the track to learning patience. I will be the first to admit that I am not a very patient person. Once I decide I want something I think I need it that second. After I decided I wanted another beautiful, funny, and full of energy child like Ruby, I thought it would be so easy. I thought why wouldn't it be easy. That in itself has taught me respect for people who have to go through adoption to achieve a family they desire so badly. I know that this is in Heavenly Father's Plan. He knows their are children out there who need families that will love them as if they were their own. I have always had the thought of adoption in the back of my mind, and even though I can't afford that either, I know I just need to have faith and know there is a plan for me. It might take awhile to reveal what that plan is but I am at peace knowing that I have a wonderful family to spend my time with until then.

Again, thank you to all of you whether it was a phone call, visit, dinner, flowers, or watching Roo Bug or many offers of help, I honestly can't say thanks enough! I am overwhelmed with emotion.

Love you all!!!
