Sketch #416 Wonderful As You

Oh gosh, when I made this card I was thinking of 

my kiddos.  They are amazing young adults, but 

nevertheless, mama's worry.    I'll share a short story. 

My daughter moved out to VA to be with her boyfriend

at the time.  Who is now her husband of 3 years and counting

Bless their hearts.  But it was hard to see her go so far away.  

Then they moved back to WI.  and settled for a few

years.  That bought a house, doing great and decided time for 

another adventure, so they headed out west.  Oh my friends, the 

day came for this and I put a smile on my face.  

Our son, and his girlfriend helped them drive

over 2000 miles out west to Vancouver.  

That morning bright an early while the neighborhood

was still sleeping I watched all four kiddos drive away.

It was raining and I had tears streaming down my 

face. I'm a broken woman and can't offer any help 

to them. So i'm so grateful they stuck together and 

helped each other.  However, by myself in my car I sobbed

thinking goodbyes are so so hard and it hurts so bad.  

But they must live their lives.  

My story has a happy ending. PRAISE the LORD

Last November they drove home.  They flew my 

courageous son and his girlfriend out there, so he 

could drive the big uhaul and trailer home and they'd

follow in their other car packed with household items.  

My poor daughter was a nervous wreck because the 

weather was terrible when they got to the mountains,

and she wanted to turn back, but my son, just said 

let's keep hauling we got this, slow we go, but no turning

back.  He even had a flat tire on the flat bed trailer he 

was pulling behind that truck. I hadn't heard from 

them for a few hours and this mama was getting nervous

and then the texts came they had pulled over at a 

hotel and had made it safely out of the mountains.  

Thank you JESUS.   Now all the our kiddos are in 

the same time zone for now.  All that to say I know 

how hard it is to say goodbye.  Some goodbyes 

don't have a happy ending here on earth, and some 

might seem quite final like death, but just know

that there is HOPE  and Heaven is our home. 

((HUGS)) to all those who are going through something

tough right now.  You're not alone.

Stampin up:  Wonderful as You

Did you notice I wrote the word: Taxi on the top of the 

car, and also NY for the license plates?   I like little adding

fun little details like that.  

Health news:  My blood pressure is all wacky and

so they want me to increase a dosage of the Rx I'm on.  

I don't know how increasing it will help since just taking 

one pill is already raising it considerably I get filled 

with anxiety thinking what two pills will do.   

I've made an appointment with a holistic doctor person.

not sure how I feel about seeing such a person, but I'm 

going to give it a try and see what they say in regards to 

these autoimmune diseases.  Have any of you ever used

holistic doctors before?   Please share your advice. 

Sorry I ran so long with this post.  I just get all emotional 

when I talk about my kiddos.  I just love them so much.
