Taking care of treasures

absense
I feel like I have been absent.  I just haven't had too much to say. 

It is my weekend to have my son.  He will be 12 on Tuesday.  We are having a birthday party for him this weekend.  He called last night and asked if he could come on Saturday morning instead of tonight.  He wanted to go to a back to school dance at school.  Of course I said sure and that is fine.  I just saw him last weekend.   I always love to see him but the thing that bothered me was I am missing his first dance.   I missed his first day of middle school and that was hard and I am missing this too.  It is the beginning of a long list of things I may miss.  Obviously if I lived closer things like this wouldn't be so hard.   However, we live 2 hours from him.  Just long enough to be too far to just drive down.    Weather permitting I will see his football game on Saturday.  That will be fun!!!!!!    I am just sad.   Sad that he can't be both places he wants to be.   Sad that I am missing these things.   I know in time this will get easier.  I won't have to miss things with my younger two.  I am so glad to have them also!!!!!!!     

Off to a busy weekend!!!

I'm sorry about all the first's you miss. I pray that the Lord comforts you through this time, and that you have fun when he does come over, as I'm sure you will. :)

Hey Brooke! I came over to comment 'cause I tagged you for a meme, if you'd like to play along. :)
I can relate to being sad about being far from loved ones, and I can only imagine how tough it is when it's one of your kiddos. I do hope and pray that you are experiencing a lot of peace and comfort during this time of adjusting.
