The boys

Oh how hard is it to get 4 boys to look at a camera at the same time? Very very hard!! But look how handsome they are! 

Family!

Every day I wonder how we survive! One minute they are best friends then the next they want to rip each other's heads off.  The day they all get along will be a miracle. I try to teach them that someday they won't be near each other so their time is precious now.   Life is too short. Cherish your loved ones.  Every day I wake up and just wonder how I'm going to make it to the next day. But I forget I should stop thinking about it and just do it.  The kids will survive without the latest gadget.  I will survive without getting them the latest gadget. Life will go on in the Nolen household.  We will seize the day and conquer!!! 

Life changes

I made one of the biggest decisions of my life June 30,2013 and that was to give up the life I knew for a better one. I packed up everything I could into a trailer and my minivan. Our car was pretty crowded that day. When I loved back I had nothing. No job, no money, no home.  I still look back and don't even know how I survived. After a few days here I went and found a job. I soon had three part time jobs. I found a place to live. It wasn't much but it was our home. We have started a new life here. The boys love it here. I'm learning to like it here.  I have a job, a roof over my head, and get to hear the boys laughter every day. Nothing beats that. Life does go on after something tragic happens but you pick yourself up and keep going and things will get better.  It may take awhile but it will happen. Thank you for reading
