For every Season there is a time...

It has been quite the summer and fall is on our door steps.  Less than a week ago, August 16,2012 My life changed when my Mom went home to heaven after a very quick battle with colon cancer.  The cancer was the final blow to her body that had many other health issues. Yet, she never complained.

This is a season with mourning our loss of her on our earthly journey, but a season of Joy at her no longer suffering with health issues that limited her.
I am so going to miss my Mom, she was one of my best friends.

In this sadness we are gifted with wonderful memories and the legacy of her life lessons...they were many!  We can look forward to a spring that gives us hope and new life...Our oldest son and his wife our expecting a baby at the end of March. 

Life will go on, it is best to savor all the delicious good times we are blessed with and live every day one day at a time.  We  will mourn and we will be sad...but at some point we can replace the sadness with the sweet memories and good moments. In this changing of seasons we can go on.   We can get through the winter because we have experienced the spring.
