Memorial Day is always noteworthy for me and my girls. Next Thursday marks the third year of missing their father, my husband. So many thoughts run through my mind. The journey of loss takes on various emotions. The strongest feeling, at first, was emptiness. In a split second, I would forget he departed forever. I imagined things I needed to talk to him about when he got back home. My mind is realistic now. He's not coming back. There will be no more times of sitting on the porch swing together on the front deck staring at the moon and the stars. He would tell me all he knew about the majestic night sky. I have so much I wish I could tell him, like the excitement of seeing our oldest grandchild make a decision to follow Jesus and get baptized on Mother's Day! And our little Amy, 11 years old, I wish he could have seen her on stage receiving her induction to the National Honor Society. Our daughters have their own ...
You always brighten my day. GOD bless you. If you dont mind send up an a prayer for me. My allergies are horrid and I can barely breath. Thanks for being a faithful prayer warrior and friend.
ReplyDeletelove and prayers, andrea
How 'bout just having that man use "ear plugs and really, really dark shades?" :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great Friday sister Mary! I'll pray for sis Andrea, too. Like her, my allergy is bothering me, too. My sinuses feel heavy. But thanks be to God it's not as severe as it used to be. Love you sister!
Oh no!! That was too funny. I am still laughing my friend. Love it! Almost makes me wish I had a kid with ADHD LOL.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday my friend.

I never used to hear much about attention deficit disorder growing up. Maybe the difference in disciplining children has changed? Anyway, have a good weekend Mary.
ReplyDeleteI always look forward to your funnies and this one was a goodin :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
I just read a book on ADHD, the video brought a smile...wish the problem could be solved so simply.
ReplyDeleteStopped by to send my love to you this beautiful Saturday afternoon. Praying for you and your family.
