When I posted the last blog, I wasn't planning on repeating. But, an event this morning caused me to think, and I wanted to post somewhere. So, you got "elected".
This morning, one of those events that can just "get to you" happened...
I happened to notice a little jewelry bag on my bedside table yesterday. This morning, I was handing it to my wife saying "Looks like left her jewelry bag on my side of the bed this week." (The daughter in question - 13 years - has been known to do this... And, they do end up back with my wife's jewelry eventually, so it was a reasonable assumption on my part.)
Imagine my surprise, when my wife told me to look inside, that it was mine - not my daughters! It was a little bit to hang on the gold box chain necklace they got me a few months ago. I was overcome with thanks. (Yes, it was from my wife AND both daughters!) Okay - so they didn't spend much on it - just shipping - as it was a "freebie" they got when spending the gift certificate I gave my wife (with a necklace) for our anniversary), but the idea that they got ME something pretty (Pendant) was wonderful (& I'm wearing it now!)...
I feel blessed that my family is so supportive! Okay, they'd rather it wasn't happening, but, they all seem to recognize the need. The question is just a matter of timing.
This time next month, the four of us will be visiting Mickey Mouse (in Florida), and I get to be me for most of the trip!!! Wish me luck!
For those of you that got this far, thank you for your indulgence.
