But I thought I would reflect on a few things I learned during the blurry days of April
1~ The friends you grow up are most likely the friends you will have for the rest of your life!
My dear friend and childhood neighbor lost her mom this month so we all gathered for the funeral and I hosted my friend Paula for a few days. Between the services and time helping Jeanette we got caught up on life. We talked until two in the morning ,laughing so hard my stomach muscles were sore for days. Even Steve said he just loved having her here !
We literally took up where we left off so many years ago. We have all been friends for over 30 years and they were bridesmaids in my wedding. These girls are my core.
They know me...they get me ...they accept and LOVE me..and I them!
They are such a blessing!
And I hope this will be us in another 20 years!
2~ I have no concept of working full time and keeping up on life. I simply don't know how people do it! And never mind how many moms with young kids seem to manage life and laundry while working full time. {yes Kaci this is you}
I am a wimp!
I am wiped out and hardly have time to think !
To all you ladies who juggle a home, kids, a husband and job , I salute you!
You are truly a hero to me!
I am counting down the days until I am working my normal few days a week, near home and can return to a more calm life. And have more time for family and friends
3~ This little boy is my joy! Simply put he is always on my mind and in my prayers. I wonder what he will be like when he is older. I already pray for his wife and his sweet tender heart.
I pray he will always walk with the Lord and know how much he is loved. Steve and I spent time with him last week and fell even more in love ! He is so special and precious just like his momma and dadda
I love you all !!
I hope you all find moments of joy and love this week
Fight for JOY !
Choose JOY !
I remind myself of that every day , because usually if i look for it...I can find it
Love and kisses Karen~
