As I look back.....

As I look back on my life.....

I realize that every time I thought I was being rejected

from something good.....

I was actually being re-directed

to something better. 

Monkey, most days I smile because "attitude" is everything.....

Yesterday it was hard to smile.....

It wasn't going to help - it wasn't going to help me feel better - 

But Papa jumped in the car with Brinkley and came back with Taco Bell.....

I was wrong - it helped - and I smiled.

No relationship is all sunshine.....

No relationship is all sunshine.....

but two people can share one umbrella and survive the storm together.

With Papa gone so much we try to keep connected as much as possible....

I send him pictures to let him know we are doing great.....

and pictures to show that the rain stopped and the palm trees no longer

sport beards.....

and he sends me texts to make me smile.....

and I know how truly loved I am.....
