Happy 30th Birthday Gabe!
30 yrs ago today I was in the hospital getting ready to give birth to my youngest son Gabe. If only I knew then what I know now as a parent. We don’t learn from others mistakes but our own. We can’t protect our kids even though we are wiser and been through things they are walking through. It’s just like letting them learn to fall down to learn to walk, the same is with letting them learn life’s lessons even during adulthood. No matter what your children do or don’t do you love them no matter what.
I needed reminding that we are to have courage & humble ourselves & God with lift us up. It’s hard to be encouraged or to humble ourselves at times during life events but I also know the reward is worth it & God is always beside me.. These are both words of wisdom I needed today.
There are times I'm more ready than not for this day to come esp when life throws us curves.
This came across my FB and I know I needed a caring hug and so I wanted to share it on my blog today, for anyone who may also need one.
Sometimes we may not feel like it but we are special & God is good to all of us. It’s our choice if we allow him to stand beside us during our hard times.
I’ve decided to remind myself how blessed I am, I may not be rich, I struggle with health issues but I'm still blessed. There are many in the world that are worse off than I am.
I didn’t speak to my son today but he is with me in thoughts. I hope his birthday fishing trip goes great and he enjoys his birthday weekend. I would like to wish you all ….
My PA came but I don’t remember much of it as I wasn’t feeling well (haven’t for several days) she may not want to come back after dealing with my MS tremors & heart stopping. When I have these all that can be done is get me in a setup resting position and let my body rest (sleep) & recover. It’s my body’s way of saying enough, no more, shut down & recoup! That is exactly what I did all afternoon, evening & night! I slept!
From my home to yours ..
