Summit and my Poor Baby!

I had my Graduation from Summit yesterday.
It was a really beautiful experience. I can honestly say that I know my purpose in life, and that I have the tools now to stay accountable for my part in the things that go on in my life. I Know that I can unconditionally love and inspire everyone in my life. I trust. I trust myself, and those around me to love me. I've learned how to give, and to receive openly , so that my life and the lives of others are blessed with the unconditional love that I know exists. I feel like I have really broken down walls, and barriers that have held me back from what I deserve. I choose not to be angry, and scared anymore. Life is beautiful, and no matter what comes and goes, I get to take my part in it, and love others for theirs.
I can't tell you how amazing it is to know that I am a beautiful, Enthusiastic, Loving, inspiring woman...... Its been hidden behind fear of judgement, and insecurities for 25 years now. I get to change that!


okay so enough about that...
so I WAS at my graduation last night when I realized that Taylor and the kids hadn't come in with all of the guest.... I looked out at my Friend Jamie and she mouthed that he wasn't there. she assured silently that it was okay.
when we were finished with our stuff I went to Jamie and she explained that he had left her a message that Matt had gotten a small burn and that he was concerned about it. I thought that was silly that he hadn't come because of something so little.
Because Taylor had the Van, Jamie drove me home. We had no other information from him so I assumed that he was home... When we pulled into the driveway I noticed that the van wasn't there.. I started to worry.
I entered the house and noticed that it looked like it had been ransacked.. the TV in the kitchen was still on as well as all the lights..
I had to wait another 15-20 minutes before he finally called from Primary Children's..... I Was SO worried!
He explained that He [Taylor] and the girls had been doing a project with the iron, and Mattie had pulled the cord, and the Iron had fallen on top of him.
MY POOR BABY!


If you have children, you can imagine how heart wrenching it was to sit at home knowing that my baby was in the ER and not being able to get to him. I waited and paced for another hour before they were finally home. I immediately grabbed him from Taylor and hugged and loved him as gently as I could.. His leg has a pretty painful 2 inch long 1 inch wide burn on it. That one is blistered and nasty looking.. Then he has an inch wide spot on his arm that is only a 1st degree burn.. that one will just go away on its own.. My Heart aches for my little guy.......


He's doing pretty well... We're staying on top of the Motrin, and we have to wash and re dress it twice a day.. He's been playing around today just fine considering. Thank goodness! Taylor learned a lesson that's for sure!

Here he is last night at midnight when they got home.... You can see the little spot on his forhead.......the one on his arm is on the inside so you can't see it...

Other news
Ali starts school tomorrow.. She's been running around giddy all day, picking out her outfit, and getting her supplies in order. Megan is distraught that she has to wait another week. I'm trying to distract her.
Its exciting. I love school!

More tomorrow.. and if you haven't looked recently, I added more pictures to my Flickr check them out..
