Life

 Last night, my husband Daniel and me were talking. We got on the subject of life and what-not. He shocked me. He told me how close he gets to customers at the place he works and talks A LOT about me and how I am so wonderful. He told me, he had told my life story and a lot of the people would reply, "wow, I don't know how she did it all, I would have been dead because I would have probably killed myself."

I feel like he is going to follow in my fathers footsteps. I have prayed so much for Thomas lately, a lot of those prayers have been answered. He got his GED, he has held a job, he pays rent, he is taking care of himself, he doesn't do drugs, and he still prays I am sure. Honestly, I never thought he cared about school and stuff.
