BITTERSWEET!

It has been 10 weeks and 2 days since my daughter and her husband and their 4 beautiful children came to stay with us!!!! The 3 girls left on Friday with their dad driving them back to TX and Amy and the baby, Joshua left today to fly home and be re-united. I cried all the way home! Those emotions surprised me and overtook me. It was a precious time begin able to spend so much time with them. How often does anyone get the chance to live with their grandkids for an extended amount of time. There were many amazing moments and some stressful ones as well. When we raised our kids we had the space and our lives were geared to them but now we live in a condo with an open floor plan that is not very conducive to more than the 2 of us. But we made it work and we will miss it all terribly....although we are also excited to just be the 2 of us again. My husband was so wonderful though it all. So helpful and soooo understanding and had so much patience. I know God has given me such a wonderful husband...and I am so grateful.



The wedding season is upon us both now and it was hard to be completely focused with all of the craziness but now we will be giving it all we have and are looking forward to it all. We are celebrating our anniversary today, June 6 and are reflecting how good our God is and how much we love each other!
