Our 7th Anniversary

Okay, so I've been a terrible blogger lately.

Monday, the 31st was our 7 year anniversary. Unfortunately, with Tom's surgery and just our life in general - another day of celebration did not get the attention it deserved. I have so many things I want to do. But, those things just don't make it to the top of the list these days. That's when I know that I'm over-committed. Yet I can't seem to take anything off my list. Everything is necessary! Well, anyway... I just wanted to share a comment from someone I truly admire. She posted this on Facebook:

You've defied the statistics as parents of a child with disabilities and you have much to be proud of. Happy Anniversary!

Thanks, Ann! From what I've heard, having a medically fragile child increases the chance of divorce dramatically. Marriage is hard. Now throw in a medically fragile child. So far, we have defied the statistics and I am proud. We'll just keep on truckin'.

Thanks,
Christy

Congrats! Steve and I are defying the odds too. This October will be 13 years. HA! I can't believe we've made it. Wink.

Mark and I celebrate our 20th on October 7th! Of those 20 years, we've been the parents of a child with special needs for 18 of them. (technically 19, but we didn't find out Hilary was deaf until she was a year old.) Kuddos to all of us who defy the odds!

Much love,
Ann
