My man got home yesterday after a month-long trip to Texas. We did get to see him at the halfway point, so it didn't seem quite as long as it was. Our little man is gone to church camp this weekend, so we only have Princess CoCo (or Sweet Little Darlin' as she is lovingly known as by other parts of the family). She has requested to go see "Hop" this weekend, so I suppose we'll be taking her to see that this afternoon.
A lazy weekend otherwise, and I'm glad for it. I want things to slow down a bit over the next few months as time ticks away closer and closer to our move date. We only have 14 weeks left until we move...that will be here before we know it. I think that realization hit our little girl this week as she came to terms with the fact that she's not going to be in class with her friends next year. One little girl in her class is leaving next week for a bone marrow transplant and they've prepared for her not to return to school as she recuperates from that. Rachel had a tearful morning and afternoon yesterday after they did a balloon release at her school in honor of Madalyna..here's a few pics from that:
It was a sweet day with lots of tears and supportive words given to her family. I've never seen people that put up such a strong front in the face of such challenges. They are truly an inspiration and remind me that I have so many blessings to be thankful for, and the little problems I have are nothing compared to some of the things others deal with on a daily basis. Really puts things in perspective.
So, today, I'm off to spend some great family time with my hubby and daughter and enjoy this beautiful, albeit windy, day God has given us, and taking time to count my blessings!
