The big day is coming! I'm sure most of you think I'm talking about Thanksgiving or the Iron Bowl! Yes I'm very thankful & ROLL TIDE......BUT....that's not the day I'm looking forward to!! Tomorrow is Friday & my little boy Douglas is coming home! He has been gone to Bear Creek on a school trip since Wednesday & I HAVE MISSED HIM! He is like my other children who can drive me down the street around the corner & to the moon & back!!!! But I've missed him! He is nine, ten next month (Christmas baby-21st)! He is definitely growing up but still has his moments of being my cuddle bug! I've missed my cuddle time! We may only get five minutes a night & sometimes not at all but his laughter & smile have been missed! I don't get cuddle time with my other children anymore---I'm lucky if I get weekly phone calls from some of them. Its OK, don't worry, I understand that they have their lives to live! Its just that they are loved & missed too! Tomorrow will be Happy & Sad! Happy that Douglas is home but Sad because he will have to go to his Dad's house at 6:00. At least I will get a big hug & get to hear all about the cave, snake show & all that stuff! If you haven't guessed by now I love being a Mom! I'm also very thankful that God has blessed me with my children & the newest member of our family---my daughter-in-law--Emily! So tomorrow when your children are driving you down the street, around the corner, & etc..............remember to stop give them a hug, tell them how much you love them & be thankful! Have a GREAT Friday & remember to count all the things you have & not the things you don't have!!! Love Ya'll!
P.S. If you need another reason to be thankful, email me at jspates2005@charter.net & I'll send you the seven wonders of the world........its not what you might think!!!!
