Blog day # 20 in a day in my life. When age pass's you buy, it takes a cartoon to remind you of those wonderful years of yesterday!

    As we grow older , our children grow up, have children and they start the process all over again. We wonder, where did the time go? Did we do it right? How could we of done it different? Below is a cartoon, and it reminded me of the trials and tribulations that we , as parents , went through.




     "TELL ME ABOUT THE BIRDS AND THE BEES"

     The many trips back and forth to the high school, church, stores, and vacations that we saved up for all year to be the best that we could afford to do.

     "AND THE FLOWERS AND THE TREES"

     The moves to another house, leaving behind 5 years of memories and the close neighbors we had as friends. The new neighbor hood and the new friends that we met and continue to see every 3 to 4 months. A friendship that will endure time until we are gone!




     Life brings you to many roads that you must travel, many intersections that require you to decide which way to go. We have been blessed to meet our close friends and share all these memories together as our families intertwined, we shared hope, grief, laughter, a special kind of bond that will always be there. FAMILY AND FRIENDS GO HAND AND HAND!

    "AND THE MOON UP ABOVE"

     Raising our children was stressful at times- but so is life in general!

     It is The meaning of being together that brings this little blog forth.

     You see we have a family- a family of children-cousins-niece's-nephews-grandkids-grandparents-sisters-husbands and wives. We also have a family of friends. A close circle that we cherish day to day. A blessing and a joy. Did we have stress? Yes- but we learned and we passed it on. I would never change the outcome- I would only pray that it continues after we are gone.

     "AND A THING CALLED LOVE!"





So to wrap this little blog up- family-friends & you out there that I know and do not know- when age begins to creep up and you wonder where all the time has gone- just look around you and marvel at what you have- for without you- those you see wouldn't exist-at least in the lives they lead now. For you are an important part of their life & their aging.

We all have choices that we made- just think if you had made one different choic a long time ago- how different those lives would be today! Love-laugh-cry-shout for joy. For you have made a difference- and as life slowly goes by- THANK GOD FOR WHERE & WHAT THOSE CHOICES WERE! 

HAVE A GREAT & WONDERFUL DAY-BE HAPPY-BE PROUD-& KNOW LIFE JUST DOES NOT PASS YOU BY!
