TLC.....

ok so I'm addicted to 'Jon & Kate + 8'. i TiVo every new episode. so this weeks episode is their Christmas show where they travelled to Memphis and purchases toys for the kids at St Jude's Hospital. i sat in my living room and cried from the moment the show started to the very end. i couldn't stop. i was a total basket case. it was just so sweet watching those sweet children and the parents talking about how blessed they were. talking about how much they appreciate life and don't take anything for granted.

it's amazing!

chip and i have prayed for a family for so long. and i also pray that when we are able to have our family, we appreciate everyday. no matter what life throws at us we will not take it for granted.

I'm such an emotional wreck lately. this time of year always enhances that feeling.

i even just had a customer that was talking about his wife and how wonderful she is and that they have been married for 50 years and she was the best mother and wife and friend. and i just lost it. i just started crying at my desk. it was so sweet. you always think in the back of your mind that 'i pray my husband talks about me that way in 50 years.' i want to be that woman.

ok I'm starting to tear up again.

until next time.
