Back in The Real World....

This will just be a quick post today......did you notice my girls mismatched clothes on Moreton, oh the beauty of holidays & not worrying about all that stuff, plus they were determined to wear what they wanted.....it has been a busy week hence not much posting......I had a birthday (scary) & attended my Grandmas funeral in Lismore. It was sad but happy as she had been sick for quite awhile & she is released from her pain now. It was incredible to see how she impacted people's lives. It was hard for me to watch Dad & wonder how I will feel when that time comes for me to bury my parents (hopefully not for a very long time), it also made me think about my life!! What legacy am I leaving, what impact am I having on those people around me, including my beautiful girls. I try not to freak out at the incredible responsibility I have to raise well-adjusted, normal, loving, caring girls!! I also have a respect for the job that my Mum & Dad had in raising us. No one really talks about all the responsibility it is usually just the feelings......I am constantly reminded that this is not a job to take lightly. What we do today can affect generation after generation!!! Choose to live with love, mercy & encouragement - look always for the good & the strength in a person, not their faults & weaknesses!!! This is a daily challenge. Love you much Mxx
