Sometimes I desire to write and share, but other times I want to keep quiet. June is a special month for several reasons. First, it means our anniversary date rolls around. We have had thirty-two amazing years with both happy and sad times. Blending our families was a huge step for us because we had experienced the pain of divorce and didn't want to experience another failure. We are feeling very blessed on this anniversary.
Then there have been the fragile weeks of watching our newest granddaughter grow and develop through live video photos. We are looking forward to meeting and holding her in August.
Also our oldest grandson turned twenty-one on June nineteenth. It is mind blowing how fast a child grows up! I told him to cherish being 21, for it's a wonderful time in life and will not come again.
Then recently there was Father's Day with phone calls, messages, notes, and visits. Even though we couldn't all be together it was still a precious day.
There's no doubt that time is moving forward. Though I want more time and years I'm well aware there's no guarantee. So the goal is to greet each new day with gratitude and live it as fully as possible.
