 Oh my goodness....I had NO idea I have not updated my profile in such a long time.    WOW I guess I will summerize what has happened in my life in 2011.    This has been a very trying and difficult year in my life and I am VERY excited to see all the wonderul blessings that 2012 will bring.     In May my 29 yr. old son married ( he is 30 now ).    In July my middle son who has been a drug addict since his teen years decided he wanted to meet his birth mom  ( he and my oldest son were both adopted by us  as infants but not from the same birth parents ).    We went private adoption and I knew is birth mom's aunt so I went over to her house and arranged the meeting.     To say the least....I did NOT go well at all.   She told him she did herion the entire time that she carried him.   Herion was his drug of choice although I don't think there was any drug that he didn't try.    We had been trying to get him into Teen Challenge ( it is a program for men and woman who are 18-65 yrs. old that has substance abuse and it is a faith based program ) for over 3 yrs.    2 days after meeting her he came to us and told us he was ready for a life change and wanted to go to Teen Challenge.     He was STILL using herion and was now in my home since his life and had not been going good and he had been evicted from his apartment.    I watched him as he came down and had horrible withdrawls from the drugs that were robbing him of his life.    We had all the tests done that were required of him in order to enter into Teen Challenge.    He entered into the program on Aug. 9th and today my son is a totally different person.    God has totally healed him of his drug addiction.   He is STILL in Teen Challenge and will be till August 2012.   My first grandchild is due late July - early August.    SO this summer will be very exciting for my family.    God has been so good to my family this year.    But this coming year will be AMAZING !!!  I wish all of you a amazing New Year.     Please keep my family in my prayers if you believe in praying.     Life is good and remember to work that TOOL  that you have gotten or will be getting.   Have a blessed New Year.
