Wow...how long ago did you loose your parents, if you don't mind me asking? And was it expected or was it sudden or accidental?
My mom lost her mom to a car accident...she was pretty healthy...it would have been nice to see her live her life out...but the Good Lord wanted to take her home.
I lost my dad when he was 64...to me that is young. But he was sick...with diabetes and kidney failure... Still nothing you can truly do to prepare for it. And then after my first child, 9/11 happened and I wanted to call him so bad and talk to my daddy...but he was gone. It's during those times I realize that God is My Father and my comforter.
And God bless the little children...even after a big day with my sisters and their children...and an icey drive home and 2 very very worn out and cranky girls I have to get in the house by myself...I am so very thankful and blessed by them. So sweet...especially when they are sleeping. she grins....just because it's the first time there is silence in the house after a loooooong day of 6 little kids being very active and then being very tired and cranky....
hugs,
