We made 50 years in November 2012
Golden Anniversary came and went
A successful marriage requires
falling in love many times,
always with the same person.

To my Grandkids

A GRANDMOTHER'S PRAYER

Oh Lord, I do not ask for much,
Eternal beauty or youth or such:
Just give me a little hand to hold
And I'll forget that I'm growing old.

I do not ask for cloudless skies,
A life that's free from tears and sighs,
Just give me a little face to kiss
And anxious moments will turn to bliss.

For what is there, really, that means so much
As little hands that reach and touch,
As little eyes that search and see
Only the best in fragile me?

So let me grow more loving and wise
By looking at life through their wide eyes.
For through these little ones, Thou hast given
This grateful grandmother a glimpse of Heaven.

Gotta Love that girl!

ReNee is and has been an important part of my life. Our beginning started with property management and specifically with the community of Farmington Crossing where we both live. We have woked together, comiserated together, cried toether and laughed and laughed together over the past 3 plus years. She is due wth twin girls next month. I am so excited to be a part of her life, her family and her new babies. We have enjoyed going to the temple, attending continuing education classes, shopping and going to Cafe Rio every Wednesday together for over a year. I love having a young friend and enjoying ReNee's youth and her Kanab mentality! She wrote me the coolest compliment this week so I am going to post it on my blog. Here it is.

"Have I told you how much you mean to me and my family!!!! That you listen to my ridiculous gripes and complaints and still are my friend!!! I am so grateful that you jumped into the crazy world of HOA's.....but more importantly you became my friend and mentor. There are not enough words!!!!"

Thanks for this ReNee - you made my day!

It is so nice to be important to someone. I see Renee has needed you and probably you her. It is nice that God helps us find each other. It is one of those tender mercy blessings that lets us know that He is aware of us.
