Another forgotten Anniversary

Today I was getting my hair cut and I told my stylist about my scar. The usual thing I tell a new stylist and of course she asked my what it was from. I began to tell her that I had brain surgery to remove a malformation and I am about to have an anniversary. Then I realized it was yesterday. Why do I take each and every glorious day that God has given me for granted. I should not just be celebrating the Anniversary of the day my life completely and graciously changed for the better but I should celebrate everyday I get to spend here with my beautiful children, My loving husband and my wonderful support system.

I vow today to celebrate each and everyday like it is the anniversary of another wonderful day beacause each day God has made is what we make of it!!

I will shut my eyes and live with my mind wide open and I challenge anyone who reads this to do the same!!

Happy Anniversary to me!! And to you!!

I am really babbling on but I am so exhausted and really needed to write this! C

June 17th 2007

Hello Everyone! I have had such an interesting weekend. I have met two new friends, although I have known both of them for almost 9 months we haven't passed the courteous smile and nod in the hallways of our children's school. School is over now and we have indulged at the pool on at hot summer afternoon and learned that we are common souls on parallel journey through this forsaken time in history.

It is so funny how we forget get some days and how those days develop into weeks and dare I say months about the absolute Grace and love of our father God. He knows all! I don't need to say anymore than that about his power but I will however expand on my thoughts about the weekend I have had with my new dear friends. They are so positive and loving, they have had trials and triumphs they giggle just like little girls and they love to be with their kids! I have been waiting for them! The friends that I have made since we moved to Fort Worth have gotten me to the place I am today and I love them dearly. I will not trade them out for newer models however, I will be around more positive and loving people for the sanctity of my relationship with my Father in Heaven and my family on earth. It is the only thing to do.
I can only pray that they will see a change in me for the good and want to follow in my foot steps.

I spent an evening out with my two new girlfriends last night and had an amazing time! How many times can you go out with a bunch of girls and never feel like you are being judges or mislead or used in anyway. It was such an amazing and uplifting feeling. Just the night before I went out with another friend and felt like the oldest and fattest person in the place!!

Alleluia for New Friends! Alleluia for old Friends!! Make new fiends but keep the old one is silver and the others Gold!!! Ha Ha I don't know which one is more precious! That will take some time to figure out but I am glad that God keeps showing me his Grace!

Peace,
Catherine
