Feeling Lonely
Today, I am feeling lonely. I miss my children.
Friday was Laney's birthday and for the first time, I wasn't with her to celebrate it.
I haven't seen baby Tom for a month and I fear that he will not remember his grandmother, who loves him dearly.
I miss my son, Jon, who has been away since June.

Oh boy can I relate!
I wish I knew what to say but the only thing I know is that you may be lonely but you are never alone. God makes sure of that!
Thanks for the nice comments on my blog today. I don't know if you saw it but a few posts back you had some great advice for me and I asked you if you would be my mom! No offense to my own mother, of course, but you seemed to have all the right things to say at the time I needed to hear it.
I am flattered that you think I sound like your daughters. I have enjoyed getting to know your whole family through cyberspace. Laney and Laurie (and Jon) are blessed to have you as their mother. (I hope I didn't miss anyone!)
The first of my children has moved out... at least for the next year... she has gone to China to teach English. It has been a very hard week... we are all pretty upset about it... my 8 year old son and my 15 year old daughter were crying in the past few days telling me how much they missed their big sister.
I'm sorry you were feeling so sad. Just the fact that you are so sad to miss one of your childrens birthdays is enough to show what love you have for them. The kind of love that knows no boundaries or miles. I bet Laney felt your love from across the states. And I bet theya ll miss you too.
May you have many happy times when you're together for memories when you're apart. And may you and your wonderful husband have many breakfasts in the rain.
Hugs, you truly are blessed...
My oldest graduates this year and is going away to college. She will be missed. It is exciting to have new and wonderful changes in life, but there is always someone or something that stays behind or moves a different direction it seems.
