MY HUSBAND & KIDS....

 ...how did I get so lucky?
The past several weeks I have not felt good...headaches, sore back neck an whatever else...possible virus , TMJ
but this isn't really what this post is about .
 
There has has been alot of care an concern from my family
but then again this isn't what this post is about.
 
 What really it is that I am a control freak (yes, Alli-kat, I admit)
 I am use to being able to do it all, and am afraid of weakness.
 The past weeks I have been ridden with guilt of neglecting thing, but more so not being attentive to my mother.
 Yes she is at a place that loves her dearly, there are those who take her out on Sunday AM but....I was feeling bad cuz I wasn't doing what I thought I should.
 I not feeling well, family sick over x-mas anyways....
 
this Sunday was a special meeting in Spencer,
we were going,
going to take mom with us,
 but,
Saturday, Kerry tells me there is no way I can go,
I look awful!
I burst into tears...
I so wanted to go,
I told mom we would pick her up,
I cry...
 
Kerry and Laura without a beat of hestition,
 
"We'll take Grandma, why wouldn't we?"
 I cry more..
 
....so Sunday morning my family goes, picks up G'ma and enjoy a special day.
 I cry as I think of my husband and his kindness toward my mother and assuring she gets to go.
 He didn't have to....its not his mom but he did....this is LOVE. He and the kids got to listen to the same stories again and again from mom. Kerry and the kids got to answer the same questions asked by mom over and over.
 
...to top it all they were invited out for the evening for supper and games.
I cried cause i wasn't there.
I cried because they took my mom and she could have special fellowship.
I cried because my family is AWESOME.

yes, I do not say it enough or always show it but I am so very lucky I have the husband and children I have.
this is true BLESSING
