I am Mom to twin daughters adopted at 7 yrs old from Ukraine in 2001. We are still on our journey and we have learned alot on the way. We'd like to share with and support others that are taking this same trip.

Two hour late start sanity check
Tomorrow is the two hour late start sanity check at Dunn Bros. Madison Avenue Mankato around 10am
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, coffee in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "Woo Hoo", what a ride!
Daily Mantra's
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
Each day is a new day, yesterday get's forgotten and tomorrow is too far away.
