I guess our family is just too close.<BR/>It seems that in our lives on or two of our children, or their families are in some situation that they need us to pray for, or with them. Sometimes they need more than just our prayers, they need a lift, a touch our friendship, counsel, wisdom. <BR/>Could be that we just had too many children.Technonanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00654136310714956586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30652620.post-3727655468981955552009-03-30T17:08:00.000-07:002009-03-30T17:08:00.000-07:00What a unique and inspiring perspective.

For me, it continues on from generation to generation with God leading me through it, and hopefully leading them as well. My hope is that the legacy I leave behind, will be one of Godliness and true spirit, one that my children and their children will use as a guide to help them along in their pathways in life. Hopefully their characters and morals will shape them into leaders with great empathy and compassion for others and so much more.<BR/><BR/>I absolutely loved this post.<BR/><BR/>Peace & Blessings,<BR/>AlleluiabelleAlleluiabellehttp://www.alleluiabelle.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30652620.post-79905111031587365532009-03-30T07:16:00.000-07:002009-03-30T07:16:00.000-07:00Terri, it's sad, I was just looking around my very...Terri, it's sad, I was just looking around my very messed up house after a weekend with my whole family home (I have 3 girls ages 11-15) and scolding myself for wishing them to be raised and moved out so that I didn't have to deal with cleaning up after them anymore. <BR/><BR/>I'll smarten up now, and be thankful and cherish these years I have left with them still hudling under my wing for warmth and nurturing--even when that nurturing includes cleaning up after them.<BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/>EileenEileen Astels Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11098531184044931737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30652620.post-33999331777383193952009-03-30T07:11:00.000-07:002009-03-30T07:11:00.000-07:00Well put.

Their going left a void that took years to understand, much less fill. <BR/><BR/>That was well over 10 - 15 years ago, and while the memories linger, so too do the newer memories forged since their going. Adjustments came, and with them acceptance. <BR/><BR/>It's a process ... a journey like most journeys. And one day it'll be a story you'll pen with grace & passion.<BR/><BR/>Hugs, <BR/>KathleenKathleen https://www.blogger.com/profile/05245926913888212148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30652620.post-22151498966809079912009-03-30T05:00:00.000-07:002009-03-30T05:00:00.000-07:00That's a fantastic analogy.Coincidentally, writing...That's a fantastic analogy.<BR/><BR/>Coincidentally, writing is a big, deliberate part of me, so that when my girls are raised and gone, I'm not left with no direction, wondering <I>what next?</I>Janna Leadbetterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06339705935553160673noreply@blogger.com
