I have cried a lot over the years… the journey isn’t always easy… some days it’s sad tears, and some days it’s happy tears. It’s important to let yourself go through all of those emotions. It’s important to do what’s right for YOU and your family. People will have all sorts of advice for you. But only YOU will know in your heart what to do. So, sometimes it’s a sad cry, and sometimes it’s an amazingly-ugly-sobbing-hap
In the end, all these up’s and down’s have really given me perspective about what truly matters.
