I feel that way about both sets of my children, but then again, it's really all I've ever wanted. But each set ties one foot so that I can't be all to either. And now my hubby's wanting us to have another baby, and I would have been excited about that a few years ago, but now find myself thinking, "How? There will go all the freedom to travel and help these other kiddos." <br />Then again generally speaking,sometimes it's nice not to HAVE to be the one to respond to every outside crisis.sarah besshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08657824655713557099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2411253170651203836.post-16749390314850667072009-05-01T04:35:00.000+01:002009-05-01T04:35:00.000+01:00Amen! I could not have said it better.
My mother...Amen! I could not have said it better. <br />My mother has had a stroke and many TIA's daily and currently in a Rehab facility. She is so far away I cannot just go and see her. There is not much I can do about it. I hate taht I am torn right now because my sibs are not getting alone and each cannot throw down the gauntlet and just concentrate on what mom would want! I hate that meds have been late all week as my sibs have been calling for support and I have been trying to put out fires. <br />I love what I am doing with these dear children and never thought it a sacrafice until now. I hate that Selina is in CA and lives in a heavily populated mexican-American Community with many illegals and all I can do is pray protection over her during this Swine flu pandemic!<br />I am grateful for all my dear on line friends who listen and pray. It is wonderful to know like minded women who see value in our special children. Thank you for being you and for praying.Doorlesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12144107052128554986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2411253170651203836.post-82016431550155457862009-05-01T01:00:00.000+01:002009-05-01T01:00:00.000+01:00OH gosh girlie I do understand....Drives me insane...OH gosh girlie I do understand....Drives me insane at times...I could name a thousand or more instances when I was needed but yet could not go and yet just like you on my doorstep they run within a breath of my call.....<br /><br />Prayer is an awful powerful too though and really nothing to be sneezed at :0)<br /><br />There is such great power in the praying woman so never underestimate how grateful/thankful I am for every single one you drop at the feet of Jesus. For every time you pound on heavens gate. For every single time you approach the thrown on our behalf. <br /><br />I am grateful. I am thankful and if we were closer yet unable to comfort one another physically it would still be enough......<br /><br />Hugs,<br />Trina and JophieTrina and Jophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14977973502325044495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2411253170651203836.post-5789867737782833432009-04-30T22:42:00.000+01:002009-04-30T22:42:00.000+01:00The only fitting comment to that is Amen!
