I can do some things and deal with it (like flying and riding select roller coasters) and there are some things I simply can't and won't do.

She was a teen when she came to us, but she changed our lives, and vice versa. She's on her way to college this fall. The girl she was when we met her and the girl she is now...worth every second. I would do it a million times for every child out there if I could. It is scary, but so worth it :)<br /><br />My phobias: heights and small spaces *shudder* Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-133132309124375119.post-7974045929229675222013-06-26T10:35:45.400-04:002013-06-26T10:35:45.400-04:00that's awesome, Christine - way to face your f...that's awesome, Christine - way to face your fears!

You and your hubs are special people and bebe is so darn cute and every pic of her is a happy one. <br /><br />As for fears or paranoia....I have a fear of heights. But there are times I just tell myself I'm going to do something that is in my range of fear to enjoy a day. I've gone in a glider...okay, I admit I had my eyes closed at certain points so I could concentrate on breathing and talking myself down...lol...but I did it. There's been a few other things too. I admit to failure at times but I just keep trying.<br /><br />Oh, and Cher ROCKS!Christine Warnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16004865226636460465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-133132309124375119.post-42372058737620055172013-06-26T09:53:43.431-04:002013-06-26T09:53:43.431-04:00thanks for visiting, Margery!
