When I woke up this morning, came down the stairs this is what I saw.  I am so blessed.  My sneaky daughter got up last night, after I went to bed and did this.  Things like this make my heart melt. Love you Lauren

14 years ago, changed the way I feel about September 11th.  I find it hard to celebrate when I know today so so many families lost loved ones on this day.

My husband asked me what I wanted to do for my birthday.  He suggested going away for the weekend, taking me out for a nice dinner, whatever I wanted to do.  I told him, a perfect birthday, I just want to stay at home and have a family dinner. I am so grateful for my family and our home.

We may have gone through so much in our lives, I don’t take things for granted anymore.  Being at home with my family is the perfect day to me.

Please take a moment to remember all the innocent people who are no longer with us.

Love Lynne
