HUGE DAY!!!...

Today is a HUGE day for us. Not just because it's Valentine's Day and it's a day to share our love with those around us, BUT today marks the three year mark for my being in remission from ovarian cancer!!! How cool is that!?!?! Three years ago today, I spent my Valentine's Day with Richard Maddalena as I went in for surgery. Three years ago today, our lives were hugely changed by the outcome...for the better. My eyes were opened to a whole new, much more fragile life that I had taken for granted so many times before. God has led us down a scary and rocky path, only to come out feeling stronger and more loved than ever before. He knew who we'd pick up along that path...and we are forever grateful...
