Every since Jeff passed away I feel like the Lord has been trying to tell me to slow down and smell the roses. Stop hustling around quite so fast. Do those things I've always wanted to do.
For me it seems its the simple everyday things that I enjoy the most. Watching my Smiles (grand babies) play, being out on the tractor, Thanksgiving dinner with my family, maybe sitting on the porch with a good cup of coffee or just being in the same room with my family
Every time one of my Smiles has a ball game and I might be tired. The thought comes to me, they might not always want me to be there. Get up and go makes those memories. One day they will remember that they were important enough to you for you to be there.
Those are the things that turn into memories. They are what matter most at the end of the journey, when every precious moment is a song that you sing. Hold to those ordinary things!!
Love y'all,
Carol/MJ
