Tomorrow my girls come home from their Spring Break vacation with their daddy and Tia. They went to Florida to visit Zach's family and have been gone 12 days. Such a long time it seems! Certainly the longest I've gone without seeing those little girls. I'm so excited to see them, scoop them up, snuggle, cuddle and shower them with love. I will be quite anxious to leave work at 6 tomorrow evening and go get them. They're changing every day! Toni told me this morning she lost another tooth! The second in less than 2 months. Where did my baby go? Oh that's right, she will be 6 in July, Eden will be 8 in October and Brooke will be 3 in November. And before all of this, we will be welcoming a baby boy into the mix. Timothy David Henderson is due May 20th, however we're fairly certain he will be on the early side of his due date. I've been dating Robert for about 4 months now. So here soon we'll have our son snuggled up in our arms with three big sisters to spoil him to pieces, and a cat, Zeus, to harrass him. A year ago I didn't see myself here where I am. But I'm here and I'm going to make the best of it anyway I can. I've got a great job, three gorgeous daughters who've gotten me through the worst days of my life, a son on the way, an apartment, a car, a cell phone, dental insurance, health insurance, and a 401K. And I've done it all entirely on my own. I've had some help along the way but any debt I owed to people is paid off as well. My house is clean, there's dinner on the table, food in the cabinets and fridge, clean clothes for the girls to wear. I've done it on my own. Everything I have, everything I've accumulated and that fills my house, I, ME, I have worked for, I have paid for. I haven't depended on anyone. Nina loaned me some money to pay my down payment for my car, but that I paid back entirely. I have so much to be proud of for myself and what I've done to get me where I am now. In a year? Who knows what else can happen and where I will be or what I will be doing. What I do know is I have the love of a great man, the love of three amazing daughters who mean the world to me, and a son growing close to my heart. All giving meaning and purpose to my life each day. So here's to life, love and happiness.
