A Sad Reality....

This week two of my and "W's" friends lost a parent

A sad reality of where we are in this life.

Heartbreaking.

We are at the stage where this is unfortunately going to happen more and more frequently. 

"The Sandwich Era"

in our lives.

The happy times getting to see our children getting married and having children.

The sad times making hard decisions concerning parents.

Trying to balance the back and forth between happiness and sadness.

This picture really makes me sad for some reason.
I guess because I know I'll be there some day.
We all will!
My only hope is that I can leave a legacy like our friend's mom Mary Grace Anderson.
She was like a second mom to my husband during college.
She was our daughter's first teacher.
She made everyone happy.
She had a full life and she knew when she was ready to let it go.
What a wonderful story.
and a great legacy for those who knew her to live by.

Heaven gained a new angel this week.

Have a great day y'all!
