Tis a Beautiful Life

Today my baby turns 19. She is young and brave and intelligent. That she loves me and still calls me Mommy melts my forty-three-year-old heart as few things do. It is a joy to be her mother.

Boy just recorded his third music CD. He is talented, friendly, strong of heart and mind. He is aware of his super powers and has assured me that he uses them for good not for evil.

In a few months, my Beloved and I will celebrate twenty-four years of marriage. I cannot image what my life would be without him...so we've decided to die at exactly the same moment. Life without the other will not be worth living. Exactly how we will accomplish this hasn't exactly been decided, but I saw the movie, The Notebook, and figure if they can do it, so can we.

This month marks the 1st anniversary of owning our little green house on the corner. I am so happy here and so thankful that God gave us this little slice of heaven on earth.

I have a great job and I work with great people. Beloved is employed and the kids are doing well.

It's a beautiful, beautiful life.

Yes, it is. And isn't it great that we can appreciate it even more because of the hard times?
