BLOG DAY #102 in a day of my life. The weekend is near, where will you be?

     Oh my, one last day to work and then tonight it is see the grand kids! You know, when I was raising children, I never seemed to have time to really enjoy them. It was work-work-work to make the money to keep everything going. Then it was divorce and finding someone new. It is funny on how you reflect back- see the mistakes you made- and how this go around with the gran kids, you see them in an entirely different light.

     You look forward to that special moment that you will spend with them. Knowing that you can try to make it right this time because TIME is passing you by!

THIS WEEKEND, WE WILL SEE ALL FIVE. PERHAPS AT DIFFERENT TIMES-PERHAPS NOT. TIME WILL TELL AND TONIGHT, TIME WILL BE ON OUR SIDE!



You see, there is only so much time left- be it that they will grow up- and we will grow older. So we tend to cherish moments like this, and see life for what it is. A MOMENT IN TIME-CAPTURED FOR A LIFETIME OF MEMORIES!

I would not trade my life for anything- for you see I have many moments in time-captured for my failing memory- yes I do forget things-try as I might- I have to be organized or it slips away.



THIS PICTURE IS FOR ME AND THEM- SOMETIME IN THE FUTURE-MAYBE WE CAN RETURN TO THE SAME BENCH-STAND TOGETHER AND REFLECT BACK ON THIS SWEET MEMORY.

PLUS THE FACT- THE CHILDREN TEND, AT LEAST FOR ME, MAKE ME FEEL YOUNG!

    MEMORIES-TREASURES OF THE MIND-IMAGES OF YOUTH-BROUGHT FORTH IN PICTURES
TO REMIND ONESELF THAT WE ARE BLESSED & FORTUNATE TO HAVE THEM.

Yes, we care about them-so much that we would give up everything for them. I think back- we did do everything we could-but maybe just maybe- we could of done more. So we cherish our time with them. We want to recapture those moments and stop time from moving on- but you can't stop the clock from ticking- you just store them in the recess of your mind-and look forward to the next time you will be together.



THEY HUG-THEY LAUGH-THEY SMILE AND THEY LOOK UP TO YOU-THEY CRAWL INTO YOUR ARMS OR YOUR BED AT NIGHT-THEY ARE YOUR TREASURES-PARENTS DO NOT SEEM TO KNOW WHY YOU WANT TO TAKE THEM-IT IS A DATE NIGHT FOR THEM-BUT A EVER LASTING TREASURED MEMORY FOR US.

We only get one chance to go around in life, one chance to make a difference, whether it be in the public eye, or the privacy of your family.



Ours is always with God in mind-and hopefully in the future, they will remember times like this-in a barn-bales of hay-Christmas eve service-a memory to be shared and retold-yes that is what our weekend is like-why we do what we do-why they are special to us.

SO TODAY, LIKE EVERY WEEKEND-I DEDICATE THIS BLOG TO THE LITTLE ONES-THOSE SO PRECIOUS THAT WHEN THEY LEAVE-A PART OF YOU LEAVES ALSO.

CHERISH THEM-DO WHAT YOU CAN-FOR THEY ARE OUR MEMORIES-PICTURES IN OUR MINDS-THE REASON WHY WE DO AS WE DO.









GO IN PEACE-THANKS BE TO GOD- OUR CHILDREN AND THEIR CHILDREN



HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND-FROM ALL OF US TO ALL OF YOU-PEACE BE WITH YOU.
