I've been sitting here, trying to figure out what to write..but I can't come up with anything meaningful.
It seems like I'm always just updating on the health of my kids. My mom told me the other day that she thought going to endless doctor appointments would get old. I don't know, it's been my life for the last 15 years, it's all I know, it's just life.
But it makes me think maybe it gets old reading about it.
The only thing I'll say right now is, Matthew's surgery went well, his pressure is, once again, down, and now we just wait again. Do I think it will work this time? Not really. It hasn't in the past. The doctor said she didn't blame me for being pessimistic about it, she said given his history, it's natural for me to be pessimistic. I hate feeling that way. I wish I could just say, "oh yeah, this will be it..it will be great". I've said that in the past, only to be let down, time and again. Once bitten, twice shy, and all that.
Fall has come to Ohio. It is so beautiful. I find myself wondering if the native Ohioans (is that what they're called?) realize how lucky they are. There are many places in this country that do not look like this in the fall. I've lived in plenty of those places. Anyway, I just love it. Of course, the leaves are falling faster than we can keep them raked up, and that's not too fun, but it can't all be roses, now can it?
Tomorrow, Dillon turns 13!! How can this be?? Two teenagers in the house! Weren't they just born? They are growing way too fast for me. I wish time could just slow down a wee bit. I know I'll blink and they'll be gone, and yet, I am so thankful to have all this time with them. I know too many people who have lost their children, so I'm not taking a minute for granted.
Well lookie there, I guess I did have something to say.
