Feb 2013

Random Thoughts:
Recently had the opportunity to speak with a couple ladies:

One is new math teacher at our school.  She is very soft spoken and shared with me what she does when not at HHS.  She was married for 18 years and has 1 daughter.  She was busy raising her daughter and living life.  It turned out that her husband had been having an affair with a bridesmaid at their wedding.  She said she held her hand and had her over countless times, asked her husband to help her with every day issues she would have at her house since she had gotten a divorce 7 years prior.  She said she should of known and should not have been surprised but she was.  So now she is picking up the pieces and  moving on.  I like her!

The other lady is kind of a hot mess.  I have encouraged her many times, encouraged her to be a wife as well as a mom.  I have supported her.  She had never shared the details of their dysfunctional family.  This time i had to ask "What part of being a mom is allowing you to let this reality be ok for your daughters?"
I pray for them both.

That brings me to this moment to share how thankful i am for my life.  How wonderful that on Thursday i will celebrate 32 years with this man.  Who told me the first time we met "I have been looking for you"  Cheesy yes but i think now we had been looking for each other.
He is snoring beside me, it is 4am and it is raining outside.  Yes i should be sleeping but sometimes it feels ok to be here now.  Being quiet and being thankful!!

WE are going to have a baby girl soon and i know my Ra is so tired of being pregnant.  She has been a real trooper but i do remember you are weary. i am praying for this perfect girl to make her appearance with no C section.  

I have 3 of the most beautiful and loving grandchildren in the whole entire universe.  They make me so happy and I love them so very much.  I cherish my moments with them!

Happy Anniversary Bobby you are the Best and I love you so vey much!
