After reading that last post this morning, I asked myself which one am I?
Coffee, Carrots or Eggs?
I think I’m coffee. And here’s why…
In this situation: I refused to lose you. I tried talking to “the powers that be” several times. I found a way to let you know I was refusing to lose you. I created a website full of content to help you see your strength and courage. I continue to be inspired and write on that website twice daily. I’m renting a home which you may choose to heal in /or/ you may go out to your own life with my heartfelt understanding and blessing. And I’ve realized that my love for you continues to inspire me daily. I love you.
So, which are you? If you don’t like your answer – you can change it. Just look at the blessings that have transpired the last few years:
Purity has her driver’s license (I’m told. I didn’t get mine until I was 19). She has gotten through a few more years of high school (getting closer and closer to graduation and your eighteenth birthday). She’s weathered love found and lost. “She’s a beast,” says big brother. Yes, Purity – you are a tough cookie! But your smile lights up the room.
And Bea: Has made it to her coveted fifteenth birthday: phone in hand( I’m hoping). Bea has gotten through her old school (finally!) and has made it through several months of her freshman year. “She knows her own mind,” says Grandma. You know who you are and what you want. That fact helps me fall asleep at night when I’m up worrying about you. Thank you for being such a stubborn clothes shopper!!!!
What are the other good things or “music” you’ve found these last two years? Whatever it is, I’m sure proud of you, sweet girls. Remember, you are the music of my heart. Prudence XXOO
