Memories I Am GRATEFUL For

   

I was going to start out writing a story and processing my feelings AGAIN.  But hey, that can get old.  Instead, here is the last few camping trips I've been on with my family.  Looking at these photos reminds me that I have SO VERY MUCH to be thankful for. 

Of course relying on the kindness of others gets old and in a lot of ways being homeless sucks, HOWEVER, that said, God provided for these trips with my kids and how can I look at these photos and not KNOW that we are a family that God has tremendously blessed.  Despite the embarrassments and awkwardness I've felt in the past month, having this time to enjoy the last days we are together is worth the cost.  In just a few weeks my Son, Daughter in law, Daughter and grandbaby are leaving for Northern Minnesota.  It will be the end of our family as I know it.  What price can a person put on time well spent?
