Well what a big week it has been and will be....This week has been a big week for all of us...A couple of weeks ago I had some bad news about my own health so I have been trying to be as positive as possible....It has been hard but hey I have 7 kids and they really need me to be around for them...So I have been....I had been waiting for the speacialist appointment and the first time I was supposed to have it they rang and cancelled it on the day...Then the next time they rang the day before and wanted me to move it from the morning till 5 in the arvo...I couldn't do this so I told them not to worry about it I will find another one here In town rather than travel an hour....So I am going to my doctor to get a referral to one in town here but I will do that after the weekend....Because this weekend is going to be sooooo full on...See tomorrow is my sons birthday he will be 17 and we are having a party for him....I have so much still to organise and it will be a pretty full on time for me to get it right...He has so many mates and I must say I am a little nervous about the whole thing but hey it will work out in the end....Then on Sunday we have another birthday Michaela is turning 14 and thank god she only wants lunch with the family and a day in the park yay....Not that I would care if she had a party too but two in the same weekend can be sooooo full on....I was sitting back and comtemplating the other day as the kids were chatting and watching a movie together hey and I am soo proud of myself and my family...They have all come so far....Sure it has been a bumpy road along the way...Aidan is being really good since he found about my health issues....Sure we are having the usual ups and downs but he is being great otherwise or maybe I am just getting more used to his highs and lows lol....John is just a gem of a kid...He is soo supportive and one of those kids that walk up to you for no reason gives you a cuddle and says I love you just for nothing....I love that he is just a gorgeous young man...Michaela she is such a little princess...The other day out of the blue she decided to take the little ones out into the backyard for a picnic...Just so I had some me time while Ken was at work....Tiana my little angel...She is struggling a bit with a few feelings she is having but came into my room last night...Her mum has gone and gotten married to a man the kids can not stand and she didn't tell them either...She said to me and Ken you guys are the best parents ever she said...I love you....Shyenne is just a little sweety to she has been extremely clingy of late due to what her mum has done but I must say I am loving it too...Nikki well she is just Nikki always happy and always smiling...Corrie just knows how to put a smile on your face all the time too...Some of the things he comes out with are just hilarious and sooo cute....Then My husband Ken he has been the best support this week...See sometimes I worry way to much about the little things that happen in my life...He said to me last night hunni I love you just the way you are...I love the way you are with your friends and the way you are with our kids...He then said he wishes he had the close relationship I have with our teens as I do...I think he underestimates the relationship he has with them but I am extremely close with my kids all of them...I do love my hubby the way he looks at life is  so black and white whereas I let my emotions pull me along the way sometimes...I think looking at life in black and white sometimes is the better way to be sometimes...He looks at things so realistically...Any way I better keep on this moving train and keep doing what I have to do to get this party happening well....SO until next time take care all and remember keep smiling...It will make others wonder what you are up to...
