As I sit here and look at our home here on Jason Court, the memories come rushing back. We have lived here almost 18 years. I can remember signing papers with Greg before we moved in. I can remember coming to look at this house with a realtor. I remember loving it and I still do. This house holds so many memories for us. Good, bad, and scary. We will be moving soon and we are ready but our memories here will never be forgotten.
I brought Trinity and Pyper both home here. I can remember holding Trinity when she weighed less than five pounds in my arms and crying because we had no idea what was wrong. I remember praying to God for help. I can remember the call that told me Pyper was diabetic. I can remember seeing my husband laying on front porch with his face covered and crying. I can remember sitting under the trees in the front yard and playing with her while I died on the inside. I can remember having huge birthday parties, blow ups, and toys everywhere. I can remember Greg and the girls riding four wheelers in the area behind the house and wrecking. lol. I can remember our many talks in this house. I can remember crying, laughing, screaming, and fighting in this house. If these walls could talk, they would say this family lived, loved, and their strength is amazing. I can remember bringing Bacca home and being closed in the side door because he tried to run out to be with us. I can remember the day that tooth on Elvis was looking at me through the side door begging to come in. I can remember the day we put pool in and the fun we have had with it. I can remember Greg sleeping almost everyday taking naps here. I can remember praying sometimes for a miracle in this house for our girls.
This house has seen so much. I wish a video would come with this house when we left. Oh the memories from that would be amazing. Our life is changing and before long we will be moving our oldest hopefully to college within two or so years. Life changes!! make memories, love hard, and never forget the true meaning of love. True unconditional love. When we finally pull out of this neighborhood I pray I don't lose it. I pray for God to continue to guide us with our girls and our lives. I pray for the same miracle everyday.
Here are dates I will never forget. February 2000 when we bought this house. October 14th, 2000 was the date when I married my bestfriend. On March 26th, 2002 our first amazing blessing entered this world. She was under stress and the doctor had to get her out right then. Another time is November 15th, 2006 when another strong, beautiful, fighter entered this world not breathing very well on her own. We all came home to this house. I remember first crawls, first steps, laughs, giggles, first low blood sugar with an ambulance call which was me when I about chewed my tongue off right after we got married. Greg thought I was dying. It is funny now but at the time, not so much. lol. I can remember Pypers first low and the ambulance call. I can still picture myself in that moment and see everything going on around me and not being able to fix it. I can remember Trinity praying on her hands and knees for her sister to be ok. I can remember Greg saying I have got his under control. I can remember screaming at him to call now. Please call now!!!! God was with us at that time and I will never forget it. Hold your memories tight.
So as we start a new chapter in our lives I pray for guidance, I pray for more amazing memories, and I pray for us to be ok. So onward and upward crazy Turner family. We will begin our new memories in January and I can't wait for what the future holds for us. I can tell you with 2018, will come a lot of changes for us. New home, the big sweet 16 for my oldest, and middle school for my baby. 2018 might kill me. lol. So let the memories begin again...
Old memories will last a life time and the new ones will follow along with the old. We are a strong family who loves hard!!!! Wherever we go, we will be together and always have each others back. One unit, one family, and one bond that is unbreakable!!!!! To the new family coming in: make memories, love hard, and enjoy every minute with the ones you love. I pray this home gives you the same blessings it has given us. It changed our lives forever. This home made us a family. This home made us complete. It made the Crazy Turner family of 4+2 dogs... This house is made with love and strength!!!!!
To one end that will never be forgotten!!!!!
Love,
The Crazy Turners
