You know, sometimes it all just comes together. You take your littles to CCD and have beautiful spiritual talk that feeds your soul with two older women and you actually feel God sitting at the table with you as if he has nothing better to do. You walk outside and discover He's given you a clear, crisp gorgeous fall day that touches your heart in a way that makes you certain this is what Heaven is like. Your children can't stop talking about how wonderful their classes were and how "awesome" God is. Then you drop your beauties with their Dad feeling good they will enjoy their picnic and the day together and thank the Lord he's a good dad most days, especially these days.
You park yourself and your laptop at the office - hey, they're open on Sunday. And you order a mocha and thank the Lord for making chocolate. You sit down and hear Norah Jones playing in the background. You thank the Lord for making Norah Jones. But the day that couldn't get better does. One of your favorite people in the world - the one you should always be calling, but don't- walks in with her amazing five children and the two of you get an hour to catch up while her gracious children sit quietly and let us. You make plans to keep in touch this time around and you know you're going to. Your soul is filled with joy and beauty and the smiles of possibilities.
What goes down must come up. Life if beautiful, even when it sucks, but especially when it doesn't. Happy Sunday to you all. :)

Traci that is so beautiful!
It is a pretty cool feeling to have that kind of peace. Even cooler that you can write it out :-) The best part of my divorce route has been my ability to acknowledge God's presence and know that he brings each person into my life for a reason.
I'll try to stop in every now and then since I actually signed up for a Google account to leave you a comment !LOL
