A SPECIAL PLACE ..

GOOD MORNING GIRLS... JUST WANTED TO LEAVE YOU A SHORT POST. TODAY IS OUR DAUGHTER SHONDA'S BIRTHDAY... WE ARE HAVING THE FAMILY IN FOR SUPPER TO CELEBRATE AND I HAVE QUITE A LOT OF THINGS ON MY TO DO LIST...LOL...
I WAS JUST REALIZING THAT YOU GIRLS WHO ARE SO BLESSED TO STILL HAVE CHILDREN HOME AND IN SCHOOL HAVE ONLY THIS LAST WEEK BEFORE THEY NEED TO GO BACK. AT LEAST HERE IN OUR AREA.. YOU PROBABLY HAVE MANY CHORES TO COMPLETE BUT TRY AND FIND TIME TO JUST SIT AND THANK GOD FOR YOUR BLESSINGS AND PRAY FOR DIRECTION AND WISDOM FOR ANOTHER SCHOOL YEAR.

WHEN I WAS A YOUNG MOTHER I HAD READ SOMEWHERE THAT A MOM NEEDS TO HAVE A PLACE WHERE SHE CAN GO TO HAVE A FEW MOMENTS OF PEACE AND TO BE ABLE TO RELAX FOR A BIT.... I KNOW THAT CAN SOMETIMES PROVE A HARD THING TO DO WITH SMALLER HOMES OR BUSY FAMILIES...

I ALWAYS HAD TO READ AND DO CRAFTS.... THEY WERE THE TWO THINGS THAT HELPED ME TO RELAX BUT ALSO I USED THEM AS MEANS OF INSPIRATION....

THEN OF COURSE , AS ALL MY KEEPERS KNOW I LOVE TO HAVE NOTEBOOKS THAT I CAN KEEP MY LISTS AND THOUGHTS IN...

SO GIRLS AS BUSY AS YOU ARE WITH YOUR CHILDREN TRY TO FIND A PLACE FOR YOURSELVES WHERE YOU WILL BE ABLE TO GO AND JUST RECOUPERATE ONCE IN AWHILE...PERHAPS YOU CAN FIND TIME IN THIS FINAL WEEK TO CREATE A LITTLE SPACE JUST FOR YOU... IT DOES NOT NEED TO BE BIG.. JUST A CORNER WHERE YOU CAN PUT YOUR BOOKS AND CHAIR OR WHATEVER.... LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU CAME UP WITH AND I WILL SHOW YOU A PIC LATER OF MY WEE SPOT...LOL....

WE ALL NEED TO ENJOY THESE LAST BEAUTIFUL DAYS OF SUMMER AND THANK THE LORD FOR HIS GOODNESS....WE ARE A BLESSED PEOPLE....
