celebrate...
I had just finished my post for today and my computer, with no notice - shut itself down and I lost the whole thing. I think I know why and will process that and what it means. I think I know but you know about the whole assume thing.
The week started with much anxiety about Miss Audrey's birthday. It has been an emotionally draining week. The last post on her blog reported that her mommy got to come home a day early. These days have to been seem unreal to their whole family. They will start picking up the pieces, trying to put on foot in front of the other. It is a journey that we can walk along side and share yet can't fully comprehend. It is their time to mourn but for each of us, our lives go on.
It is our weekend to celebrate Miss M's 3rd birthday. Actually, she has been asking everyday this week if it is her birthday yet. Darn it, would be her response and thankfully tomorrow, will be the first of 2 birthday celebrations. I am looking forward to celebrating.
This week has been about two little girls for me. Completely different experiences but connected by the One who made them both. When taken in context with my lost post, the week is making a bit more sense than it has. The ebb and flow of life is takes a flexible soul and I seriously lack in that department. Time to put on my party hat and celebrate. Not just with cake and ice cream but for the life I have, the thankfulness I feel and the God who holds my hand daily...
