Family

As we are preparing for the Holidays(putting up the Christmas Tree and baking) and getting ready for our first grand child I am reflecting on our family. I have flash backs of when I was pregnant with my girls and how I felt when I had them by myself for the first time. It's amazing how fast that 20 + years has gone. I was telling Tasha how it was back then and it doesn't seem possible that it is my daughter who is having the baby. She is a baby herself. I am excited and sad in the same instant. Excited because we will have a new baby, our baby, sad because so much time has passed that we will never get back. I can remember like it was yesterday. I am sure every grandmother goes through this at one point or another in their life. This is the cycle of life, this is what my mom talked about when I was younger.

I have twin girls and my other daughter Nikki is pregnant as well. Nikki is going to have hers in April. So yes, I get to go through this twice in one year. Unfortunatly , she is in Florida. I don't get to see her as much as I would like but she will be moving here after she has her baby. Yes, we are blessed. Having my girls was and is the best thing that has ever happened to me and Eddy.

Like I was saying I have been reflecting on our life and family and I do know how blessed I am. I do thank God for all that he has given me (good and bad).

I hope you all have Christ filled Christmas and a wonderful New Year!!! God Bless, M
