Happy Spring!

A lot has happened since my last post -- I turned 51, wooo-hooo, my grand boy is now two, and my baby girl got engaged to her high school sweetheart.
So, big plans and crazy days are ahead for us.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Well, it's a day late but, never the less,
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

What a day!

As all of you know, I am usually the one singing "let it snow, let it snow, let it snow"! Except tonight, I was in Green Hills shopping and unaware of what was happening where I live. It took me close to an hour to get home from my work (that is where my car was). The closer I got to home the worse the roads were. I slid several times and got stuck once. Here are some pics!

I got to watch my boy last night -- as I was preparing to put him to bed, he would tell me "I need anudder book nana -- finally after about 9 books I told him we would just sit and rock until he was ready to get into bed. We sat and rocked and talked as he drifted off to sleep I put him into bed. What a sweet angel.

My boy started preschool this year -- it's hard to believe he is almost 2. Where has all the time gone?

It's been a while since I have written. I have been working towards understanding the loss of my mom. I have come to the conclusion that there is never understanding, there is only acceptance of the fact -- several weeks back I went to a ladies church retreat, the Sunday morning service was outside, it was a gorgeous day as the speaker began to talk my eyes drifted towards two trees in the clearing just above her head. There was a bird, it looked like an eagle to me, it was soaring -softly --floating and dancing above, since that moment, I have felt a peace I have not felt before that day, I know it was a sign to me that things were going to be alright, I was going to be ok.
