One week

She has been gone one week today! Can it be possible? Where did the last eighteen and one half years go? When did those wee little fists stretch to reach out and be transformed for new adventures outside of our foundational four walls? Is she missed? YES. Is our home 'different'? Yes. Are there any regrets? NO. Seeing her new world, meeting her roommate and her roomies family, literal relatives from AZ and the sweet relationships missed, it all made a world of comfort and assured it is all okay! She is just going to LOVE it here (her new home), okay THERE.

The room was set up in roughly 35 minutes. A MAZING!!! The finished product? "PRESSSSHHHH!" The families who helped us get the furniture there AND set up was so appreciated. The set up process was wonderful! Reconnecting with our AZ family - SWEET as well those we miss seeing around Mo Town and from Kent and my past! One week that brought many years into prospective - deep breath in, exhale peeeeacccce, JOY, awwwhhhhhhh.

Am I excited? YES (can't you tell by all the exclamation marks? Tee Hee ROFLOL). Oh my heart aches to talk with her and "hear all about her first week and its adventures", to hear her come in at night, lock the doors, turn out the lights, open our bedroom door and say, "Mommy, Daddy, I'm home!" :: knowing we all are "in and safe". She is safe. She is enjoying her new life. She is capable to survive and lead with her God Blessed given abilities. We release her back to HIM knowing we tried our best to give her the training necessary for "such a time as this" to fly. Also to see the nest here at home :: it is flying with confidence in the midst of one weeks change that is not so weak. ;-) One week. Many lives = One LIFE. ONE UNITY - THE LORD REIGNS and BLESSES ABUNDANTLY. One week warms the heart to the deepest of reflection and exhilarating liberty of true tranquility. The soft tear gently escapes finally while penning this reflection. Thank You Lord for many ONE WEEK events through my midst, a vapor called, MY LIFE.

One who thought, "I will be weak probably" realized differently the heavenly blessings of this season. I AM BLESSED and it showed in ONE WEEK!

30 Days

I have been laid a challenge which I am going to do! Will it be unnatural? I don't believe so. Will it be a challenge? Yes . . . anything for a consistent thirty days consecutively is CHALLENGING. Will it have results? Yes when totally implemented. Will it change me? Most definitely.

It begins NOW. I'll live these next 30 Days like I was just given only thirty more days to live LIFE.

Bring on the challenge and let's see what the results bring about! ;-D

"Giddy Up!"

LIFE Good, Better, BEST

The passage of time is amazingly quick paced and sluggishly clingy. The Tortoise and the Hare, an Aesop Fable can illustrate this with such accuracy to the point it is profound. LIFE. It is creeping up on a week that our darling girls have been active in a whole new episode of melodrama that quite frankly has been called LIFE!

The electric eyes of Blues (three shades), Deep Chestnut, light Amber Brown and Hazel (two shades) are captivated in the way they sing of joy with what IS! Each breath, Each step, Each smile, Each adventure in One More Day called their LIFE.

I guess after hearing Kent speak on servant hood and pondering the reality of that concept- LIFE. Soon there after, I was running into Hy-Vee, finding a publication from TIME magazine on Mother Theresa about her LIFE making a difference. It made me realize I have learned many things on "servant hood" through our version of Our Little Women, through what we know as LIFE.

LIFE is like the ocean tides bursting to sing in my heart with each pump of new blood through this unique muscle, vast white blood cells, and the nano seconds of breath. LIFE.

Live as if my LIFE is an expression of the true source. Give with all that I have. Share in the magnitude of a minimum of 100 % and my BEST! Help because it is POSSIBLE.

Dream.

Risk.

BE.

No regrets.

Forgive.

Learn.

Lead.

LOVE exponentially.

LIFE!

We posses only ONE :: Give my all, with my LIFE.

Good, Better or BEST for the KINGDOM . . .

. . .Here am I LORD SEND ME - LIFE, mine is YOURS!

Can you say, "follow"?

"Remind the people to be subject to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready to do whatever is good"

Titus 3:1

ZZZZZzzzz

I am so tired. I am going to sleep peacefully because she is safely where she needs to be. With joy and peace in my heart I am going to catch some Zzzzzzzz.
