I am going to learn to save a post before I try to do anything else with it. I had a wonderful description of our month which I lost to Neverland. It has been a tough month. Here are some of the events that have occurred:
- We got a new minivan, another Odyssey. This time it is silver and had more features. I am not going to describe them in case the same someone who took the other one gets more Odyssey envy and tries to take this one too. If you want to see it, I will give you a ride in her.
- Butch and Sundance turned 5. It was quite emotional. They were so happy since you can now play with Transformers when you are 5. I was sad since my little boys are growing up. I am making all attempts to slow down the process. (more on that later).
- Baby turned 1. Can I still call him Baby? Maybe I need to call him Toddler now since he had his first tantrum. I took a knife away that he got out of the dishwasher. What a mean mommy I am. I could call him Doodle Bear. A doodle bear is a toy that you can draw on and then toss in the washer and it comes out clean. Sounds alot like my Baby except I put him in the tub not the washer.
- One of my best friends lost her father to a hard battle with cancer. He was 70 and his last days paralleled my mother's last days. I have been trying to be a support to her since I know how it is to loose a parent. It has brought back so many sad feelings.
I have been a bit sad and sick this last month. With the birthdays, lost van, a slight cold, and Bill's sickness I just haven't been up to my full potential. Maybe spring and Easter can renew my heart and my spirit. Isn't that the way it should be? The cold, dreary days of winter give way to the beauty and sunshine of spring. A cold sad heart is renewed by the love of Christ and the reminder of His resurrection and triumph over the grave.
Praise God from whom all blessings flow!!!
