Missing

November 19th, 2009 in Life

\

Missing the past, missing old times, missing my sister and brother, missing a more simple life. Missing my babies. Missing how calm I used to feel. Just missing. Wondering if I would give success all back to be able to have the calmness again.

Last night my daughter and husband talked on the phone for what seemed like forever. They giggled about things.  They answered and asked every question they could think of. She was beaming and I could hear his sweet voice on the other end. I went into my “baby’s” (not really a baby anymore) room to rub her back. And I thought…things are crazy…but we are very blessed.

Thank you.

I need to remember how well we are taken care of and to learn to be calm in every phase of our lives. And instead of missing, I need to just lovingly remember.

    Missing is normal. Funny how some of the things that drive us the crazyiest are the ones we miss the most.

    I say that all of the time. I want to go back to simple. It seems like everything is so hectic.
    You know what I want to see…more pictures of your wedding. I love looking at old pictures. My fav thing to pass time.

    I couldn’t have said it better myself. Thanks for the reminder this morning. Regardless of how life is at the moment, we truly are blessed!

    Sometimes we have to take a step back and look at all the little blessings in our lives. This is a great reminder.

    Thank you for always reminding me where “center” lies. It’s not in the chaos, it’s not in the past, it’s right here, right now. Love you!! And – man, oh man – you were a beautiful bride!!

    Isn’t hard, to just stop getting ready, or cleaning up or planning out and just be in the moment of the life that you take so much effort to make worth living.

    I particularly love that wedding shot. You look so happy and beautiful (and I really like your hair shoulder-length, by the way). :)
