Reminded Today.......
I was talking to Dusty one day and began to cry about my mom being sick. We talked for a long time and at the end of the conversation he tells me he loves me so much ..... But before he hangs up he said..." Remember mom Gods in control". Knowing my boys have so much faith is a blessing <3
Life is Like A Flower.....
It starts as a seed ~ God.....
The roots are some wonderful people that were in my life some not so long My Grandpa Terrell was one that I really didn't know but I know he had to be wonderful cause he made my dad. My Grandma Terrell was wonderful too. I remember she would make these Great little cookies from Gram Crackers with peanut butter and cool whip boy were they yummy. She also made some Great
Ramon Noodles. She lived in Florida so she wold come visit in the summer. She had a southern voice and would sneak around and smoke with my Grandma Steele. My Grandma Steele was a wonderful Inspiration . She knew alot about everything and taught me alot about setting a beautiful table and having a wonderful dinner. Wow she could cook. When you went to her house she would have everything from an appetizer to desert. Once after I had my son Dallas I had a bit of the blues. She took me for a walk and let me cry for a minute. Then she handed me a nerve pill and told me to kick myself in the butt . She told me '' You have to be tough to live in the West ". I've been tough ever since. My Grandpa Steele was a man of little words but when he did speak it was always wonderful. He loved to surprise you with his dry sense of humor which my mom and son Dallas inherited.... I also was blessed with a step grandpa Burt and Grandma Margret who Loved me alot !
As the flower grows a stem is made and that's my Parents.....Wow the stem is Strong and Holds us all together. Someone we can lean on and grow from. They have taught us so much about Love, Laughter, Kindness and the most important Our Mighty Seed <3 Without him I don't know how I could have lived though life. My Mom and Dad are so special I was blessed to have them and Lucky that my children have had them in their life too..
The leaves on this flower are My brother Greg is the first and is the best. He has been there for me and has never failed me. I know he will always be here for me, again I have thank My Mighty Seed...The next leaf is me. As the flower grows our stem teachers their leaves to love and two special leaves are added. They are Mary my Sister in Law and Denny My Husband. They came onto our stem many years ago and were so Lucky to have them grow with us.
And last is the Beautiful Flower that has bloomed into a Four wonderful Men. Justin, Kyle, Dusty and Dal. This is a bloom that makes the world so Wonderful. I can see in their eyes that they are here to make the most out of life and Love like No Other.They are all Bright and have so much to give. As they go though life I cant wait to see some new BLOOMS.....
