Wonderful Weekends
I love my weekends with Abbie. Not just for the fact that I get to spend time with the most wonderful little girl in the world but also for the fact that I get to spend time with a great family and group of loved ones. When Abs is around it's always a good excuse for everyone to get together and spend some well needed time with each other. This weekend was so beautiful and we all took full advantage. We all got together Saturday night and had dinner and talked and laughed and laughed. Sunday Rachel and I got to take her to a birthday party and then we spent the whole afternoon at the playground wearing ourselves out. These times are so priceless to me. I wish I could have everyday to spend with her and all those I hold close. The old saying is absence makes the heart grow fonder, and I find this so true. When Abs and I aren't together I long just to see her precious little face, or hear her crazy off the wall justifications of why she should be able to stay up and watch TV with Alicia and I. She really is a trip. I wouldn't change anything in the world though. I am so blessed with everything. Rachel is so willing to let me spend any second I can with her and I can never thank her enough for that. Heck, I never do thank her enough for that, Thank You Rachel. And thank all of you for the time we share, the silly conversations we have, and the love we all have for each other. You all truly make my world go around.

nice.
ReplyDeleteI am glad that we all have each other as well. I have often found myself feeling guilty about Caleb being six already and still being an only child, but then I watch he and Abbie together and my heart smiles. I know that God made them for each other...someone to share their childhoods with until who knows? One day God may bless each of them with a sibling and then they can groan together :0) I love you baby brother and the insight and respect you ahve for life!
