Sometimes I am overwhelmed by the way my God blesses my life. Last Sunday t at church, we were singing and I just became suddenly so aware of the ways in which I am taken care of and my socks are blessed off. Literally. I am sock-less. I hope I never forget to be thankful for that and to be quick to recognize it. One way in particular I feel blessed is the special relationships in my life. As far back as I can remember, I have never wanted for sweet people who simply just make my life better. There are two particular people who fit into that category and yes, they are both under the age of 12. No shame, they are my favorite. For two wonderful years of my life they were my roommates as their generous parents let me live with their amazing family. I cherish my days with these two SO much and feel blessed to know them. Last week I returned from spending a week with them as their ‘fill-in mom’ while their parents were out-of-town. What a blast I had! They taught me how to build a fire (yes they taught me), we danced along with Bill Cosby on his Cosby show intro, shared special moments over bowls of Cheerios and dressed up for Halloween. I must say I made an awesome Queen of Hearts.
It is times like these that remind me just how ‘sock-less’ I really am. Grateful. So very grateful.
So, in the name of sweet relationships, God’s goodness and being sock-less,
I Say Take Me Back!
