Moments

Last week we had a blessed weekend.  Carl had the opportunity to go with his friend to the States for a football / baseball /guys trip.  I stayed home and went with the kids for a sleepover to a dear friend and her kids' home (her husband was also down south).

The next day my family gathered to celebrate the birthdays of my brother and cousin.

So I sat for a moment during the activities of the weekend and thought to myself, "This isn't some quick trip.  Nobody is on vacation; we all live here.  I don't have to quickly get in the visiting because we're leaving.  No one is going anywhere and I can just soak in this moment and anticipate many more to come".

There is something so soul soothing to think about that....
