Reflections, A Mother's Day Addition~

Since I actually started this little old blog on Mother's Day awhile back, I thought it would be fitting to reflect on Motherhood today.

In no particular order...

It's been 6 months...

As many of you know, back in the fall of last year I was met with a challenge that was completely unexpected.  The possibility of cancer.  I shared my two month journey here on the blog.  I shared my fears, my prayers and finally the outcome.  It was not cancer!  In the months since, I have watched countless friends I know receive not so great news. I've been witness to the loss many have endured.  I had my 6 month follow up today, and could not be more humbled and grateful that all is well, and my scans were clear.  God is an AWESOME God, and is totally in charge.

I thought I would share a few quotes I found recently that touched my heart.  I also wanted to thank each of you again for praying with me, for me, and to Him.  Please continue to pray, as each day someone receives the not so encouraging news.  Pray for a cure.

He is more than gracious!!

Easier said than done, but doable if you then read and keep the next verse close to your heart...

Amen!

Surprisingly,  this showed up several places I visited this morning...He knew I needed the reminder.

And, that is a GOOD THING!!

Something I intend to work on this year!

Reflections~ Change Is In The Air


How did it get to be May already?  The past few weeks have been a bit of a blur.  A good blur, I might add.  Hubby and I had a wonderful time in Hawaii.  Hope to post pictures of the trip soon. We spent the entire weekend doing yard work.  Pollen and TONS of rain make for a lot of clean up!!

While we were away our oldest made a HUGE decision to leave the school she is currently teaching at, and her students she loves so much, to take on a new position at another school for the upcoming school year.  

And, Baby Girl is graduating from Baylor in less than 2 weeks!!

One, maybe both, might be moving home for a bit.

Changes...all good, all exciting, but a bit daunting nonetheless.

We could not be more proud of each of them.  The above quote really does sum it up.  While these chapters in their lives come to a close, so many more doors have been opened and opportunity awaits. 

New beginnings...exciting and scary all rolled into one.  But definitely a  BLESSING!!
