Love and Loss-Making the Most of the Time We Have











It's another Wednesday on this Earth of ours. Life at my house is as similar as ever. Kieran's doing his afternoon thing--playing and I am doing mine when I have the chance...I am going to try to work on my paper today as well.




A lot has happened over the past few days. I got over my illness...still have some trouble being in that stinky cooler/deep freeze at work. We also traveled to Nini's house. It was nice to visit. The kids had a great time together. Collin and Cassie are wonderful cousins. Kieran had his first ride on a carousel with Mommy and Daddy. He also had his first ride on a train...well, sort of. It was a nice little train that runs around the park there in Independence. It was very exciting. Daddy only had issues with leg room. Sunday we visited Joplin, Missouri. It was nice to be closer to Springfield. I can't wait till we can go on an official visit!!
Monday we experienced a bit of a damper on the end of the weekend. We lost a dear member of the family. Karen lost her Grandpa. Though he wasn't technically our Grandpa, he always treated Brea and I like we were granddaughters as well. He was a wonderful man who would have done anything for anyone. He will truly be missed by us all and Karen and the rest of her family is in our prayers. His passing is a reminder to us all to cherish the time we have on this Earth with our friends and loved ones.
