Listen Up Everyone!

Oh my, Looks like Tahoe is winning out. You guys!!!!!!
Camping again huh. Well I suppose that we had better get something reserved if its not to late already. Dad, Mom, Are you coming???? Cheaper I suppose. And includes the kids.
Nothing going on today really, besides the usual.
I got up as usual and did my morning 4 miles after taking the boys to school then to moms to do her books and then to get Coda and then met someone for lunch that I will not name as they had just woken up in time to meet me. Oh My! Even I don't do that, sleep that late. Although I will admit that I have before.lol But it was a long time ago, now about the latest I can sleep is 9:30am if I try really hard. lol My dad is so proud I'm sure that I am up by 8am every morning now. And that is the earliest I am going Daddy so don't get any ideas. haha
Tonight Travis is preaching as Bro. Neumann is out of town so the past 2 evenings have been just the boys and I as Travis has been at the church studying. But last night Daddy and Mama came over and ate some dinner with me, and then stayed and visited for a bit so that broke up the boring time alone. They haven't been here for a bit, we always go there so that was a nice change.

Okay everyone, Listen up! I have some very important advice or wisdom, whatever you may like to call it. Don't laugh for I'm very serious about this.

So, we all love our parents, right? Yes of course we do. Some more than others of course.
Okay so listen to this.
I love mine the very most of anyone I'm sure. Yes??
Travis and I spend alot of time, actually most of our time with my parents along with my Brother and his wife.
I know another person that does the same with their parents so I know I am not the only one.
Let us not ever take our parents for granted. Someone told me recently that they wished they had spent more time with their parents because now they cannot as their parents are gone from this world.
Another lady I have recently made friends with told me that she doesn't see her parents but maybe once every 2 years and that is fine with her but that her husband likes to see his parents alot and so they spend alot of time with his parents. It is sad that she is not close to her parents but at least she has her in-laws for they can be just as important to you.
For when you marry you become one with your husband or wife and you become like another child to his or her parents as he or she is.
So spend all the time you can with your parents or in-laws because one can never show how much you love them, too much.
We do not spend much time with Travis' parents but that is only because they live far away and unfortunately we are not rich or even well off and so cannot make the trip there very often, but we do miss them dearly.

You never know what tomorrow may bring, for we live in an unsure time. A time of not ever knowing what tomorrow holds. And if we are taking it one day at a time live as if it is your last, love as if you may not get the chance to love again, and smile as if no one is watching, well that is what I try to do, when no one is watching of course.LOL
Remember to tell those you love every chance you get lest you lose your chance and regret it forever. Would they know that you loved them if you were to die tomorrow?

YOU CAN NEVER BE WITH YOUR PARENTS TOO MUCH!!!

Just want my parents to know, no matter what you are the most important people in my life for now and all time, besides my husband and kids of course. :)

I know, I am being all sentimental lately but sometimes one must really stop and think a bit. Quite thinking of only yourself for a little while and think of others around you. Family is love, family is friendship, family will stick by you when no one else does, family is the most important thing next to God.
I guess as I get older I see things clearer, for you know I've been through alot in my short life and I've made mistakes, I've had people tell me how foolish I was and all kinds of things but you know where those people are today, they don't even talk to me anymore but my family and I are closer than ever and they have stood by me no matter what choices I have made. If you have a family like mine you are truly blessed and I hope you will remember that for all time and never forget.

Okay I have said enough of the thoughts in my head today, I will spare you the rest of my sentiments. Now you know a bit of how my mind has been running. ;)
I have gotten to the point, almost, of asking everyone I meet how much time do they spend with their family. For I remember a day when my family wasn't close, I hope that never happens again.
Have a wonderful day
Hug your parents, Call them and tell them you love them for you never know what tomorrow may hold.

Daddy, Mama, I love you.
Father-in-law, Mother-in-Law, I love you.
