hello again...

well, it's been a while. a long while. i've missed the blogging world. but-the break was much needed. our little family has learned a lot in the past year. we'd like to share a few with you:

*never take what you have for granted. one day you might wake up and it could all be different.

*it's not the things in life that are important. it's the people.

*sometimes, right before the greatest things happen, a storm hits. but, the storm always passes and you realize that you are stronger than you thought.

*someone always has it worse than you do.

*don't be afraid to fight for what you want.

*who cares what people think. as long as you are happy, that's all that matters.

*your true friends will love you and be by your side no matter what.

*your family is what keeps you together when you're falling apart.

*never be afraid to admit that you were wrong.

*real, true, overwhelming love is worth fighting for.

*never forget to forgive those who have wronged you. you never know when you'll be the one asking for forgiveness.

*life is too short to worry about every little thing.

*there is ALWAYS room for a second chance.

we've accumulated quite the list. but, are so grateful for all the life lessons learned. so... welcome back to the Reeder Family Blog.

we've missed you.
