Moving on down the road

The highway of life is full of twists and turns, some of them precarious and along steep cliffs, and sometimes you go down a road you never thought you would and it is scary and daunting.  But if you have faith in God and your good sense, at the end of that road you might find yourself in a better place than from where you came.

We only get one shot at this life, I believe.  I want to live my life with a smile on my face, and I want to pass the memory of that smile down to my children.  I hope that when they are grown and I am gone, that they will remember that their mom was happy every day of her life, loved people and most of all loved them with all of her heart. 

Last night, my three year old baby boy, Will, was squiggley and wiggley at bed time.  I offered to sing him a song to calm him down and get him to close his eyes.  I started into the first verse, and he stopped me after one line and said... "Mama, I know this song.  I want to sing it to you."  And so he did.  In the sweetest most beautiful voice I have ever heard.

Jesus loves me, this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to Him belong
They are weak but He is strong

Yes, Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves me
The Bible tells me so
