Gratitude Thougth #4


Today's gratitude thought is about older women. Now that I'm 35 I can really appreciate the women who have experienced all I have been through and even more. I got to talk to my grandma in Georgia today who has had cancer twice. She loves each day and I get the most positive feeling when I am around her. Also, I went visting teaching today to a woman who is in her 80's. I love to listen to her talk about when she had kids and how it really was basically the same for her as it is for me. These women are (to me anyway) largely untapped sources of advice, compassion, and life experience. Wow!!!
The picture is of my handsome boys on the first day of school 2008. Connor thinks he's going with Ryan and Ethan to school so he was very disappointed when they said goodbye that morning.
