If only...

We would remind ourselves more often, that in fact this life is pretty amazing.

That it flies by faster than anyone ever warned us. Or if our peers did, we really weren't listening, now were we- .

 To stop the clock would not allow the existence of our most amazing memories we've shared.

Even during the toughest moments together, I held on tight.  With my journal notes, and camera ready.  Peeking in at your world to share the slices of what seem to be such long distant memories to me now.

The days of holding on too tight have come and gone.  I just watch the two of you grow bigger braver wings. 

Loving you more as the years pass.   

The chapters we were filling, just kept turning.  Over and over, and a new book would be created, and we'd fill that one too.

Thank you for making me proud.  Working hard to make a difference, and loving this life for what you have.

Happy Wednesday lover faces. 


Take too many pictures of your little ones.  Journal this life together, because one day.....

Just one day.... you will look back with smiles, laughter, tears and most of all....the moments that meant so much. 


Go play in the sunshine.  Or if you're like me....kick ass at work, and don't look back. 

Make a difference.  Some way, or some how.

Being alive is a gift.  Having a home, and material things are lucky things.

Meals, friendships, and laughter just add to that. 

Even with a smile to a stranger-

Big love,

L
