I used to want to rush things along, but I now tell them they should just stop growing already! ;o) Their replies, of course, are "But we can't!" :o) We have many good days, but we seem to have about as many not-so-good days with attitudes and heart issues. And then I have those doubts. If I look too far into the future, it just freaks me out some days. So, I have to constantly remind myself that this is a one-day-at-a-time job. God provides the grace I need for each day. And that's enough. He is so good!Karennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4423302133297844372.post-12297578730950339882011-03-14T09:33:02.220-04:002011-03-14T09:33:02.220-04:00A beautiful reflection on a beautiful day.

I salute your creativity and energy! Its been a few years since I did a real birthday party, I remember how exhausting it is. Thank God for strong shoulders and strong arms to hold us! I've needed them many times in raising my brood. With my eldest on the brink of 20, I've spent quite a few times with those 'pause button' wishes.<br /><br />Happy Birthday to Alex and Alexis and all God's blessings to you and your family!<br /><br />Thank you for sharing your special family with us.Lisa Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17357560782423451224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4423302133297844372.post-6509848341089709352011-03-14T08:24:03.665-04:002011-03-14T08:24:03.665-04:00What a beautiful and true post!
