I have these 2 incredible children. Now, I know everyone has incredible kids, so I know I am in good company when I brag a little about them. The last 2 days, my daughter, Ryan, and I have spent some much needed time together. We are making good use of this very peaceful condo at the Island. The men are in Harlingen, still working on this darn Jeep that James decided to make from scratch...who does that?? Oh, wait, I know....MY man does. Anywho, this has given Ryan and I a little time to ourselves. We have scrapbooked, gone to Dollar Tree and Dollar General, had manicures and pedicures and ate like little piggies at the Island Brewery. By the way, the beer bread at that Brewery place was sooooooo good. I had two pieces and then had to bring home my whole dinner because I was miserably full.
So to make a long story short, I have enjoyed the time with my daughter...the child that refused to let us go to Alaska without her, even though she is leaving a great job and lots of friends. She is going on blind faith that her daddy and I will take care of her and that she will find a job. Caleb has at least seen Juneau and he fell in love with the town. Ryan hasn't had that chance. But I know our daughter...she will love it in Juneau. She is so very much like me and I know that she will be find her own way on her own terms. Now, if I could just get my mom and sister to move up there, everything would be perfect. I do know that my mama will come visit and Marigayle is saving up money to come out there, too. We will keep in touch and will pray for each other every night, knowing that God is watching out for us all, as He continues to shower us with his blessings, whether we deserve them or not.
