I'm trying to live a more God-centered life, but I have to say I have these days as well. The way you are able to then turn it and look at the positive side, is really a gift.

I don't know if you reflected and got to this point BEFORE you started writing, or not. I do this often too, and that's why I love writing and blogging. :) Thanks for sharing.

I needed to let you know something about your daughter and her friend situation. My boys, (I have three) were all friendless at different times in their lives. Mostly in their younger years. Oh, I remember my heart aching for them. One night, in my prayers the Lord showed me something. He so faithfully showed me that He was protecting them, guarding them, from things that were unknown to me or them. He showed me, that in His timing they would all have friends and relationships that were from Him!! He showed me that He was protecting them from pressures, temptations, being dragged down or put into situations that He didn't want them to deal with at such a young age. I then was able to share this with my boys at different times of their lives, and I saw the encouragement they felt, the uplifting of their spirits, knowing that He would be faithful to bring them good and honorable friendships in His timing. Oh, how much He loves our children!! They all 3 have great faithful friends now. Friends that I believe will last a lifetime. Thank you for all you share every single day! You have blessed my days!

He once fit in my arms - but now his head is just under my chin. He helps me cook dinner and asks questions that show glimpse of his bright mind...and I realize I have not just raised a son - but a friend. My husband - my friend my sons - my friends my sister, mother and father - my friends I am a blessed women...I just gotta remember to count my blessings instead of my have nots. whats in it for me
i weather his hurt and pain because I know – with time I will get my friend back

The silence in the house – oh sarah – I feel that often – I ask my three boys “AM I SPEAKING TO THE WALLS???” all the time…but then – as I cook dinner and my 10 yr old runs up and says sorry mom…i say “for what” and he hugs me and says “i forgot to hug you and ask you how your day was today” And I hug him – my first baby. He once fit in my arms – but now his head is just under my chin. He helps me cook dinner and asks questions that show glimpse of his bright mind…and I realize I have not just raised a son – but a friend.

My husband – my friend
my sons – my friends
my sister, mother and father – my friends

I am a blessed women…I just gotta remember to count my blessings instead of my have nots.
