God Has Blessed My Broken Road.....

The Rascal Flatts song "Bless the Broken Road" is a parallel to my life!!! ALL of it!!!! I have FINALLY found that special someone.....the girls and I have been blessed!!! I have found a wonderful....honest.....true to life man!!! Things in the relationship part of life look to be heading in a positive direction! We are the greatest of friends....he is wonderful with the girls.....he is EVERYTHING we deserve! His name is Rusty...and we have been hanging out (just as friends) since June, but at the end of July he asked me if we could go out on a date....I hesitantly agreed (I didn't want to mess up what we had), but I'm glad I took that chance!
Rusty has been in the Navy for the past 10 years and is stationed in Lemoore (only 2 years left) he then plans to move into a career with CHP(California Highway Patrol). He is from Michigan....hence the reason for my Facebook post....we were watching the game on Saturday. He was married for 7 years and has 3 children who live in Indiana with their mom. I know my family is now wondering if he has any BOYS....and the answer is....yes..2 girls and 1 boy!!!!We COULD eventually have a boy in our family by default....LOL
I have had the opportunity to meet his parents and his children and if being blessed with Rusty wasn't enough he has a wonderful family that comes with him!So there you have it.......what my life has been up to....lol.

RASCAL FLATTS LYRICS
Bless The Broken Road


I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you

[Chorus:]
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true

[Chorus:]
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

Now I'm just rollin' home into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road that led me straight to you

Jordyn goes to Kindergarten.....

Yes I am aware that she is 4 and putting her in Kindergarten goes against everything I wanted for Jordyn, but......it happened anyway!!! On September 14th she officially became an Kindergartener. My plan was to keep her in preschool for one more year so she would have every advantange she could (since she has suffered from hearing issues)Jordyn also suffers from a lack of maturity. So the first week of September I went to sign her up for a free preschool here in town that would keep her busy 1/2 day everyday! That Friday I received a phone call from the preschool telling me Jordyn was too old to attend.....frustrated I asked the lady to please give me a suggestion of what to do with her. She sugguested that I put her in Kindergarten....to use it as a Pre-K and if need be repeat her next year....so there you have it!!!! She is in school.....busy.....and thriving! She is doing GREAT in school.
