Lovely Moments
April 27th, 2011 § Leave a Comment
Life has been a bit melancholy around here these days. We had a lovely Easter celebration and in spite of my two daughters not being able to be in town, we celebrated that my Mother is still with us. My sisters and I celebrated each other as we have tag teamed together in managing Mom’s care keeping life filled with dignity and assisted my Father’s role as caretaker.
I am melancholy today for my husband is working with his siblings in deciding to move his parents to an assisted living facility. They will have to say goodbye to their home of sixty years. It makes me sad.
So today, I pause and look around my home and appreciate the lovely moments.
The doilies that my Mother made while she waited for my Dad to come home from work. Today they are more precious than ever.
My orchids were boasting with blossoms and color…
I just needed to pause…
and enjoy the lovely moment…
for it passes by so quickly…
Even my wilted tulips had something to say to me…
I wish you lovely moments today. Don’t let them pass you by.
