Good Morning Blog Friends~

Just kissed my daughter, son-in-love and Boston goodbye. I am so bad at this Military life. Others do it so well but I just miss my kids something terrible. The wedding was just perfect. My in-laws have returned home. The bride and groom have left and this morning my other Washington kids have gone on their way. This momma has a tender heart~ but I am so thankful for my blessings  I am thankful  for all my children and the people they have grown to be. I am blessed.  



My little Boston was so excited about matching Uncle Jacob and Aunt Hannah. 

Matthew 10:27

King James Version (KJV)
 27What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops.


I would be flat out lying if I told you my heart was not breaking. My Brian and I miss our gypsy girl and we may just cry all summer. She has home schooled all her life and has not been away from home for more than a couple of weeks. As her Daddy put it~ "it bites."  I know others have been here and I know it is God's plan but this is just plan hard. 

Poet Alfred Lord Tennyson wrote, "Never morning wore to evening, but some heart did break."

It truly is what God tells us in the darkness that we grow from and gain victory ~ then we are able to share with others how our best friend Jesus carries us  through our hardest days. 

I am so very thankful for the new addition to our family and they are so very happy. I am thankful that Jacob and Hannah love God. I am a blessed Momma. But I sure am going to miss my girl. 

It is through our thoughtful prayer, Bible study and quiet meditation that God speaks to our heart all the time but more so when our tears are falling and our hearts are breaking.

I am still catching my breath and I have tons of pictures to share soon. I am truly thanking God for all my blessings this morning with a tender heart.
