Yesterday was weigh-in day. I gained .6 of a pound.
I was gone for the holiday weekend. It was a LONG weekend!
I did real well Thursday and Friday, not quite so good on Saturday
and really bad on Sunday, so I wasn't totally surprised,
but I got right back on track when I got home.
Today was a beautiful day!
It involved two little souls that bring me so much joy!
I'm so grateful for my grandchildren! They have brought so much love into my life!
When they were dropped off this morning, Ethan ran in and greeted me with a smile,
and Abbey motioned to get out of her car seat and then reached out for me.
Her mother lovingly kissed her goodbye, and Abbey said in a sweet Southern draw
"Bye, bye" and waved. Her mother laughed.
I'm so thankful our grandchildren look forward to coming to visit.
I did not have that type of relationship with either of my grandmothers,
and barely knew my grandfathers.
So, I have realized lately that I have had an epiphany about a few things in my life.
I won't go into details here, but these realizations have opened my eyes to some things...
some things, I'm sure my mother was aware of, but I've had to learn.
They make me kind of sad. They make me want to cry, actually,
but we can't turn back the hands of time, and we can't relive what's in the past,
we can only move forward and try to be better for what we've learned.
This song comes to mind...
