Today we are thankful for...


We have had a crazy 24 hours. As many of you know we have been greatly looking forward to taking our kids down to Mexico for a week (leaving yesterday) for a much needed relaxing vacation & fun family time. On Wed. late afternoon our youngest daughter, Ella, who's 4 (& a 1/2) was at a friend's place for a play date & fell out of a treehouse from 8 feet up.
Long story short - she broke her collarbone & our trip to Mexico had to be cancelled :( I know - what are the chances? Less than 8 hours before we were supposed to get on the plane! We are all obviously very disappointed that we are not on the beach right now drinking margarhitta's but we are SO thankful that our little girl is o.k. It could have been so much worse 8 feet is a huge fall & it's only a broken bone - she will heal & be fine.
So, we are still going to be 'on vacation' but now we're snuggling our beautiful girl on the couch (carefully) & just happy we're together as a family. And very, very thankful.
