it’s okay

I am realizing more and more each day an apparent truth in my life…
I am alone.
I am doing this alone. I am taking this daunting, long and winding road all alone.
And…. I’m okay.
I may never again be someone’s wife. N may very well be the only child to ever call me “mama”.
But, really, I’m okay with it.
Finally.
The LORD replied, my precious, precious child, I Love you and I would never leave you! During your times of trial and suffering when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.
a lovely labor day
Our Labor Day weekend was lovely. It was N’s weekend with his dad, but he was nice enough to let him come home early to join us on the river for our little camping excursion. We camped out Saturday and Sunday nights. It rained on us periodically, but it was most definitely a good time. My sister and her boyfriend were there – I love them both so much. And a few of our mutual friends. And everyone had their kids, all boys. Those boys had a blast. I was too afraid to bring my nice camera, so I brought my other one (which is still nice, and expensive, and I would still cry if it got wet, but it’s not as nice as my newer one). I wish I’d taken more pictures. I love weekends like this one…
We even brought Lily… her first time on the river. She immediately owned the sandbar, and stole all of my sisters dogs bones he had buried, and guarded them with her life lol…..
the vintage pearl
I am in love! With the items on this website, that is. I know now what my friends-with-kids are getting for Christmas this year. I may have to treat myself to one before then… I especially love mama bird, you are my sunshine, and a cup of love. Just so you know
