This World May Seem Like A Ferris Wheel...

...sometimes your up and sometimes your down. I have been listening to an old cassette tape from when I was young, "My Turn On Earth". Those are the words from one of the songs. And that is how my life feels right now. CRAZY!! The latest with me being in bed for over a month. I hurt my back and it got so bad that I had to take an ambulance to the ER. That sucked but I got some good meds out of it! :) Then just as my back was getting better, we started getting the flu. First Elijah and then Elizabeth and lastly me. I have been SICK for almost 2 weeks with that. I am FINALLY starting to feel like normal again. YAY! I still have some residual "stuff" but I am so grateful for being able to be up and moving and doing things. We have been doing well as a family. The kids are getting big!! Elizabeth is 14 and going to dances and enjoying High School. Elijah is 13 and has found his voice. Sometimes I wish he wouldn't be so vocal though. :) Jake is almost 12 and wants to play tackle football and loves Polar Bears! Livvy is almost 9 and such a social butterfly!! But she still loves cuddles with Mom and, of course - Dogs! I have started selling doTerra essential oils and other odds and ends. I also make flannel diapers for a group called Teeny Tears. And I have started cleaning to make a few extra dollars. I love being at home and doing my crafts and being with my family. And now my kiddos are home and we have a busy evening ahead of us!
