We have been blessed to be living a life where…no matter what has come our way…when we wake up every morning we can smile and say…
Yesterday was a very good day.
Let’s take yesterday for instance…in the early morning we drove our two eldest children to the airport…there, amid the threat of stormy weather,
we got to see them off…they’re traveling to Italy…together.
As parents we told them to have a good time…secretly praying they’ll be okay….
Then with a hug and a kiss we said buon viaggio…and sent them on their way.
Later in the afternoon and into the evening…the two of us were blessed to attend…the wedding of the eldest daughter of Deborah’s oldest and dearest friend.
The wedding was held in Deborah’s friend’s back yard…following a morning of stormy weather…we got to wish them well…as they began their married life…together.
We watched as her parents told the couple to have a good life…knowing secretly they were praying everything will be okay…then with a hug and a kiss they said good-bye…and sent them on their way.
From the early morning into the evening all on the very same day
we got to experience love…in two of its abundant ways…
On the same day we got to see our children and a newly married couple fly off into the future…with new worlds to explore…blessed to be a part of their lives…blessed to be there to watch them soar….
Last night we slept like babies…exhausted from all the love and excitement that came our way….
and this morning we woke with smiles on our faces
agreeing how yesterday…was…a very good day.
