Life

Life has a way of moving on. Sometimes I look back and think how and where did the years go. I have been blessed to have a pretty wonderful life. Oh, don't get me wrong I have had struggles and times when I thought I could not go on, but looking back they are blips on the screen.

Today, we celebrated by little granddaughter, Audrey's birthday. She turned 2. I still vividly remember meeting little Audrey on the day of her birth and now she is 2!?! Did I blink my eyes? She is a joyful, sweet little cherub that reminds me so of her mommy at that age.

Yesterday, our family welcomed a new addition Brayson. He is my niece's son; we are thrilled to get another boy in the family; they seem elusive. My grandson Ethan and Brayson's big brother Tyler are outnumbered by 5 little girls on my side and 1 little girl on my sister's side. I think the boys can breath a sigh of relief!

The heat is oppressive today. I feel dehydrated after spending 2 hours at the park for Audrey's birthday. It is almost like my tongue is swollen and dried out. I am inside now enjoying the cool of the AC and wishing I had a pool to plunge into.

I am going to do one of my favorite things...take a nap.
