This week has been chaotic at best. I have had so many reminders this week of just how precious life is. Tuesday morning my day started off with the news of a family member's passing. Tuesday evening I was involved in an incident on the highway that could easily have cost me and my oldest Prince our lives. Wednesday afternoon I slipped and fell holding the Princess.
In the midst of all of that however, I witnessed a stranger come to my rescue at the risk of his own life. I've awakened to the smiles of the cutest little chocolate Princess. I've been hugged and kissed numerous times by Prince Scholar, Prince Bossy Smurf, and Prince Mookie. I've shared tender moments with my King. I have quiet time with The King and I even saw Princess Fly Away this week. All things that sometimes get taken for granted.
Every morning, as Prince Scholar is leaving for school I tell him, "I love you! Have a good day and make good choices! Follow Jesus and take no chances getting lost!" This morning, I said my usual but I suppose I didn't give it my all, because Prince Scholar replied, "Mom, you didn't say it with enthusiasm." I realized that indeed I lacked the enthusiasm I normally have and I repeated myself with the enthusiasm that normally sends my Prince along his day.
I had to take a moment and remind myself that amidst the chaos and unexpected bumps along the way, that my life and the life of those I love is PRICELESS!
HAVE A GOOD DAY AND MAKE GOOD CHOICES! FOLLOW JESUS AND TAKE NO CHANCES GETTING LOST!!!
