10 Years Ago today I was starting my first year at Lake Sumter for the nursing program. Madeleine was 8 months old. Mike was 6 months into recovery from a tractor trailer accident which took his arm, crushed his left leg, and left him with a traumatic brain injury. We lived in a little rental house on South Grove St in Eustis.
5 Years Ago today We lived in our current home, Liv was 8 months old, Maddy was a brand new homeschooled kindergartener. This was my first year of homeschooling and boy was I a sprayed roach!! Talk about crazy, stressed out poser homeschooler... I literally decided to homeschool a month before school was to start! I worked every Saturday at Waterman on PCU with my friends Darilyn and Rhonda.
3 Years Ago today- I was 7 months pregnant with Ethan, and had just found relief from my horrible morning sickness. I was working on CPU at the new Waterman hospital every weekend. Madeleine was 7 1/2 and Liv was 2 1/2. We didn't school much this year ;)
Present- I am home with Liv who had her tonsils out last week. Maddy is 10 going on 16, Liv is 5 and this is her first year of homeschooling. Ethan is almost 3 and a happy, energetic little boy. School is resuming tomorrow for Maddy. Ethan and Mike hang out during school hours. My aunt is slowly slipping away and I am really missing my sister.
Future- I hope that our kids grow up healthy and happy. I want to travel with them and not only teach about things in books but show them. Do I have the guts to do it? I don't know.. I would like for us to live closer to the rest of our family up north. I hope to stay close with all the great friends we have here.

What a wonderful little family you have! I know what you mean about missing your sister. Mine only live an hour and a half from me but it's not like having them right here with me. I love your little family and too wish you lived closer to us so I could enjoy you, Mike and my little grand kids. Love you all,
Grandma Anne
Wow the CRX brings back many, many, memories. This time of year makes me want to be with my family. The leaves are turning and the night air is crisp. Helen is calling our names. I miss you guys and love you very much. Give my girls, and my keep you on your toes boy, hugs and kisses. You can give my brother a kiss too.
