Martin and I spent the day with Mindi, Chris and Jonathan. What a day!!!
They have created a wonderfully warm and comfortable home for themselves. Little Jonathan was napping and we had time to see the slideshow of their trip to Hawaii. What great pictures they take.
But it was different this time. It felt like some part of our barrier had come down and our time together was real, genuine, and warm.
Jonathan is such a character. He did his A-Z puzzle, knowing his letters and what they stand for. For 20 months old, he is a bundle.
We talked about Michelle (her sister) being pregnant and her possibly getting pregnant and delivering this year. What a Christmas that would make!!
In the begining of our marriage. my relationship with Mindi was distant. But after a serious and heartfelt talk several years ago, effort on both our parts, I feel like our relationship is evolving.
I cannot tell you how much this means to me. I purposely didn't say "yes" to his marriage proposal five times because of Shelli and Mindi. I prayed about them constantly...waiting for my heart to open, accept and love them as my own. It did and I do became a reality on Nov 16, 96.
After accepting Christ into my heart again in 1998, I started to change and shed the old and fleshly things of life. The more important things, rose to the top. Family, kids, life, relationships, and love.
There's a whole world of people out there to love......open your arms, your hearts and fill them and the spaces in your life with them.
I was wondering if my little warrior, Garrett had anything to do with it. After all, when our purpose on earth has been fulfilled, it's time to go home. If it was you sweetheart, thank you and I miss you.
Love to all my girls....all five!!!
Meagan, Candice, Carrie and Shelli
