Kinda Corny, Maybe, But True

My children have been in Florida for the last week on a trip with the band and choir from our school. Yesterday I washed their sheets, and because it was a nice day and I had the leisure to do so, I put them on the line to dry. Seeing them waving on the line made me smile; nothing says "home" like clean, fresh sheets on your own bed after a long week of travel. Later in the afternoon I had the opportunity to go along with Fotomama to shoot engagement pictures. The bride and groom-to-be were a cute couple, obviously in love, and Cherie shot some incredible pictures. I stood there wishing that I was twenty-something again and newly in love. Then I sort of shook my head and thought, "No, I'd much rather be where I am now." The place I am now is the place where I'm happy putting laundry on the line because I know it will make my kids glad to be home, and I guess you call this place "family." That couple just starting out is getting married so they can get to this place that I have already found.

	BootsmaCherie发表: That's a pretty great thought. I was sitting at a wedding the other night as they played the song " I will be Here" SCC. It was sung at my wedding also and at the time I really appreciated the words as much as my experiences could allow. I thought the sentiment sweet and held hope in the promises it made. But fourteen years later to the month as I sat next to my husband the words struck a much deeper and truer chord. "I will be here to watch you grow in beaty and tell you all the things you are to me." and "Tommorow morning if you wake up and the sun does not appear. I will be here." and "If in the dark we lose sight of love hold my hand and have no fear. I will be here." Flashes of memories scrolled before my eyes. Painful memories that brought with them the threat of tears, and sweet tender memories that made my heart feel in that moment that it might burst. And I looked beside me and he was there. You're so right. It is beautiful to see new love like theirs. What's even more beautiful is to know that it only gets better from here. Thanks for reminding us of that. 6 月 17 日
	Moira发表: Despite some of my current dilemas, I would much rather be me at 44 than me when I was 22. The older I get, the better I become, and the happier I seem to be. I don't hang laundry outside because I don't have a laundry line. I should get one, cause I do like hanging stuff from time to time. Air dried hung up inside the house isn't the same thing as air dried out in the beautiful sun. Speaking of sun, wassup with Daily Satire? Tell him I miss him. And Grace, too. 6 月 14 日
	serf发表: An excellent thought. The ONLY way I would ever want to go back in time is if I could take the current aquired knowledge with me. If I can't take my life lessons with me, I'd rather stay where I am, thank you very much! Have a blessed day 6 月 14 日
	alice hudson发表: Good point... My sister lives in a neighborhood where they aren't allowed to hang clothes out. You have no idea how mad that would make me! I'd want to find the biggest pair of boxers I could and have them waving in the breeze. I mean, what snobs! And what about all the energy saved from line drying clothes?? I don't hang mine (laundry, not boxers) much anymore, just lazy I guess. But my neighbor always does. I love to see it! I know what you were saying wasn't really about laundry, I just took a side path. But I do know what you mean about the young couple. THIS, where we are, is a good place to be. 6 月 8 日
	Carol L.发表: It's so awesome to have you back blogging again! I missed peeking over your shoulder. You're a huge blessing, and I thank God for you! Love ya, Carol :) 6 月 6 日
	Patty发表: What a wonderful, sweet thought and an amazing place to be! I'm glad you had a fun day & that the kids are back safe & sound. 6 月 6 日
