Rise Up!

Well that was my word for this year! I have been very quiet this year and sorting through emotions from the last three years! I have been gradually “rising up” in some ways behind the scenes but until today wasn’t ready to share!

Last year began with water flowing through our house when we got home from vacation in March! you might as well say that we rebuilt the whole first floor of our house. Then when it was getting on its way to be finished, the end of September, we took a trip to North Carolina and on down to a Marriage Retreat in Orlando.

While in North Carolina a hurricane came through Florida which destroyed our family’s whole area. We were going to be heading down there after the retreat but of course it didn’t happen. We stayed in the northern part of Florida and came on home.

We still had work to do when we got home and basically picked up the pieces. Just a few months later we had our tenth grand baby, a little boy named Oscar Everette, or Ozzie. What a sweet little boy!

When we have floods, hurricanes, new babies, and all the other things that happen in between we just have to sit down a minute and sort things out! I’m sure you know what I mean!

It just has to take it’s course and sometimes we just have to wait. We have to wait five months for the word we picked for the year in January to start making some sense. I am finally “rising up” and it’s finally a new day and new things are breaking through!

We’ve still been doing the things on our path, but as far as creating or moving forward with the things I had started, the brakes were on, until now!

• Good to see you today!

• Glad to be “Rising Up!”

• Don’t give up in quiet times!

• You got this!

• See ya soon!
