I Am So Old!

Tonight was Bible School Commencement. I went to see what the grands had been doing all week. This little country church is where I went to Bible School every summer growing up. This is the church where I was a teacher and my daughters went to Bible School every summer growing up. Tonight I actually talked with some ladies that taught me in Bible School! I talked with kids that I taught in Bible School that are now grown and have kids in Bible School. And of course I had fun catching up with friends I went to Bible School with. It was such a wonderful evening. My son in law and grands had to wait awhile on me as each time I started to the car someone else came up to talk. It was a true coming back home experience and it felt perfect. Today was a very blessed day!

Its been a busy week and weekend. Finished helping Megan with the inside remodeling. Next week we are planting trees and moving flower beds so they can build a front porch. Helped Melody and her family today finish stacking the split firewood and worked on the grandsons building. Did a few loads of laundry and enjoyed a pizza supper with the grands. Diva and the other goats all went to their new home today. Rowdy the guard dog went with them. I am glad as he would have grieved being away from the baby goats. Its sad but they are going to a loving home with lots more room to run and graze. Many have asked why I am no longer at the homestead. My husband and I have separated. Its a long private story but I am back where I grew up and also raised my daughters. I have come home to my mountains and though things are sad and hard each day God gives me many blessings I am thankful for. Hope you have a blessed weekend.
