alive and appologetic...

Hi ladies,
Can't believe I haven't been on in so long, and I am sorry for neglecting the board. I am thankful for Katie and Nic for keeping everything going so well...

Things here have been really tough. Ayden is just perfect, however - sleeping well, healthy, and loving school. I can't believe how fast time has gone, yesterday she was an infant and today we have full-blown conversations... it's amazing to me.

As many of you may remember, my husband is an addict, along with my brother and my mother is an alcoholic. Things have really gone downhill for the family lately. My husband relapsed awhile back and has finally opened up to me about it. He is still struggling (still using). My mother is probably the worst off right now - she hasn't been eating well for years, she is now purging, and still drinking. Her weight is so low, and I'm afraid she's killing herself very quickly.

So anyway, not to be a Debbie-Downer, but that's where I am at right now. I really miss you guys, and the board, but it's taking everything in me just to get through moment by moment these days... I hope ya'll understand!

Thanks for listening!
