Half Century Living

Half Century...Good Lord willing,  half?? Really??

This has been a very difficult holiday this year...NEVER have a I said, "I made it thru it" and still breathing, but some years just are that way.

2011 was a year full of blessings...Miss Sweet Camille being a big, big blessing in our family's life, a summer living the sweet, sweet life in Charleston which is burned in my heart and soul forever, and time with my fabulous kids who are now the MOST amazing adults I know!

Ashleigh's blog quoted Diane Sawyer, "years can be categorized in two ways; years to ask questions and  years to find the answers. 2011 was a year of asking many questions. In 2012, I will turn 50 and realize that the people I admire most are the ones who dig deep and find their passion and then have the fortitude and faith to reach out and go for it. This year, I am resolved to reach back and retrieve the pieces of me I left behind 10+ years ago and at the same time reach forward to the woman I want to be in my fifties.
I am blessed to walk this path with three incredible children, the most incredible girlfriends (Lynett, Lydia, Simone, Wanda and Cindy) I have ever known in my life,  and a new grandbaby, Miss Camille Sullivan Cates who carries the "Sullivan girls" name into the next generation of strong women in our family.

Blessings in abundance!
