Enjoyed an especially nice, simple weekend with my husband and kids. The weather was so nice..in the low 70s with a cool breeze and a beautiful blue sky. While I fed the critters, hubby helped the kids fly a jumbo styrofoam jet (yes, it got stuck in a tree). When we were finished, the girls went out to the driveway to collect "pretty rocks" for their dirt castles **lol** while, husband and I sat down in a small clearing to watch the girls play. We laid back with our arms behind our heads and just admired the beautiful blue sky and reflected on our life together and all GOD has blessed us with.
No, we don't live in a big house...but its our home. We don't drive expensive, fancy cars...but ours still run and they're paid off. We don't have tons of money and pretty much live paycheck to paycheck...but we work hard and appreciate all we do have...don't live beyond our means. We live simply and love our life. We thank HIM for our friendship and marriage, our 3 beautiful healthy children, and home.
Sometimes, people just need to stop, lay back and look all around at what GOD has given and not what he hasn't. We may not understand now or tomorrow, but there is a reason for everything that happens...GOD has a plan...we just need to stop, listen and follow his word.
