I was talking with my sister on the phone this morning about the fact that 24 years ago this week, our mother passed away. I can't believe it's been that long. Twenty four years ago, I was between my junior and senior year of college, living in western Pennsylvania, and hoping for a bright future. God chose to take my mother home to be with Him that summer. I so desperately wanted to live on my own that summer and yet, when it happened I didn't want it. Here she is with her sister, Mary (on the left), and brother, Jack (in the middle).
August also brings about Glen's and my anniversary. We will be celebrating 20 years this Wednesday. I have been blessed to have such a wonderful man as my husband. It feels like yesterday. I was looking over our pictures the other day and remembering all the little things about the day - the heat, my brother-in-law's statement to me before the wedding, the people who were at the wedding and now are in heaven, and other thoughts. It's all good! God has exceedingly and abundantly meet all my dreams and hopes!
