Choices

Life is funny sometimes.A few hours after lunch my choices are go run or eat a bowl of chocolate ripple. It truly is a series of small choices that makes us who we are. Sometimes I get so wrapped up in doing that I forget to be still.This morning around 545 I was on the porch with my coffee and God.I felt a whisper of a breeze on my face and the fragrance of rain.Most importantly I was visiting with God.Thanking Him for all the things that He has so graciously brought into my life.
I am working in a friends office next week.He wanted a picture of me and a few lines about what I had done so his patients could get to know me.Of course there were no pictures of me without my family so I sent him one with everyone in it.I am at the stage where I am more proud of what my children have done than anything I am doing.Fathers Day always reminds me of how blessed I am.Indeed life is about choices and those choices will make your life.So I have decided to go run and then eat a bowl of ice cream....who says you can't have it all !

I don't know exactly when it happened  but within the last few years two became one and fulfilled His grand design. We have been through it all . It seems like only yesterday when it all began. Time has a way of slipping by quickly.Raising a family with Jolene as my partner was the best gift I could have ever received. We have more time for each other now.Early mornings on the porch with a cup of coffee,walks on the beach,or benging on Netflixs .The pace is slower and indeed life is good.
Of course there will be challenges ahead, but we will simply hold on and stick together. Sometimes it just doesn't get any better than that
