I would love to announce the borth of Madeline Roas born 4-1-2004 6lbs 16 ounces she is my son Jakobs new little sister yes his step mother had a baby and I am so happy I can not wait to meet the newest edition to our extended family.

Also I am very happy because Jakob is responding well to his medication but they may change it because he has put on alot of weight and is bloated but all and all he is doing great I talked with him last night he is a trip to talk to,.

Also I am very happy because I just booked my flight to go out to Arizona I leave to go there the morning of July 13th which is my sons birthday I arrive in Arizona at 10:30 am plenty of time to prepare for his party and I get to meet his grandma rhonda whom I have talked to many times on the phone and I feel like I have known her forever so I am excited about meeting her face to face.

Also I am doing pretty well at my moms but it has only been a week but since we both work different hours and lead different lives we dont run into one another that often.

I am just feeling pretty good I get to see my son in exactly 100 days I get to meet his baby sister whom I have been told he is in love with already.

Life for me today is pretty good and I just wanted to share this with all of you since you have all been there for me when life was beating me up I figured I would share with you when life was being kind to me.

Love to you all

Erin,

Congratulations!!! I'm really happy that things are going so well for you. That's wonderful that your son is making progress. Nothing is better for a mother to hear than that.

It sounds like the move to your mom's was a good thing. Having a different schedule than hers can only be a good thing.

I'm glad that you are focusing on your healing and making strides in your life. Like I said, you are the only who can make a difference. Even if jerks are around you, you are the only one who can take care of yourself well enough to change your surroundings. I always tell myself that life is a process of weeding, weeding out the people and things that don't work to make room for more positive.

All My Best,

MariaC
