The flood of feelings came...as I knew they would...how did I think I could keep them away? As I wake up every morning in the house that Mack (MY DAD!) built I feel the love that he put in as he hammered every nail. As I put on the apron that used to be my Grandma McDavids I smiled thinking of the memories of all the holidays of the past spent with her and our Pop and extended family. As I pulled out my Moms cast iron skillet to make cornbread and HER cornbread dressing recipe I cried...at all the changes that have occurred recently. I DONT LIKE CHANGE! The sadness was overwhelming. Then I got the best hug from the sweetest girl a Mom could ever wish for. And then I was reminded Gods love for us NEVER changes. HE is there for us in the good times and bad. HE gave us the family that he wanted us to have, and wants us to be there for each other. HE provided a miracle for a very sick friend this week too. Despite those no longer here with us, and the difficult choices we have to make in this life GOD is there to guide, love, and support us if we let him. Im choosing to be grateful for all I have been blessed with! And grateful for a God that loves me, even when I am not so lovable. HAPPY EASTER to all my family and friends. May you count your bountiful blessings too today.
