I got an email from a good friend this morning - I don't know her in person,
only on e-mail... and I consider her a friend, and respect her for the things
she's accomplished.
My son brought home his violin today, after his first lesson... and he practiced
for me :-)
All the homework is done, and son is working on extra-credit work, with a smile.
Daughter is reading a new book for her high-lit class.
The dishwasher is running, so I'll have clean coffee cups in the morning.
My daughter has her first 'date' tomorrow - a school mate invited her to the
high school football game - and for the first time in a long time, she's not
missing the best friend who moved away quite so much.
I wiped down the jars of apple butter that we made from apples we picked last
weekend - enough jars to share with a few friends.
For today, life is good - my children are happy, healthy (thanks to new allergy
meds), and content with our lot in life. We have people we love, who love us.
My stepdad, who is terminally ill, is holding his own, at least for now. He and
my mom have just that much more time together.
Guess I can't ask for a whole lot more than that.
The peace I feel tonight, I share with all of you who have gone through the
trevails, and emerged victorious at the other side.
L'chaim :-)
