My Son & Daughter

This post is about my son and daughter. They are both on my mind today and I am so blessed to have them both. After work yesterday, I went with my husband to the cemetery where his dad is buried. When we pulled up to the cemetery, a lady was there visiting her sons grave. After getting out and walking closer, I realized that I knew her. I had actually worked with her at the hospital a few years back. I had forgotten that her son had been killed in a car accident 2 years ago. Before I got out of the truck, I asked God to use me to be a blessing to that lady, not knowing who she was at the time. Her sons headstone stood about 5 feet tall. It was beautiful. I was standing there talking to her and looking at the headstone and feeling kinda strange and thankful at the same time. Thankful that it was not my son or daughter in the grave and sorry for her that it was her son. What made me feel so strange was her son had a lot of the same likes as my son. He was a Superman fan every since he was a small boy...so is my son. His headstone had the Superman emblem carved in it. His headstone had a guitar carved in it because he loved the guitar and could play very well... so does my son. We stood there the whole time that my husband was working and talked about our children. It was almost like she didn't want to leave. I told her that I started not to interrupt her visit but I remembered something that a friend of mine had told me once. She lost two of her sons in a car accident and she did not want people to avoid talking to her about them. They lived and was an important part of her life and she did not want people to forget about them She loves talking about them. This lady ( at the cemetery) told me that she felt the same way. I thought about her the rest of the night.

I woke up with my children on my mind this morning. I have never liked tattoos and did not agree with my children getting them. My son has a tattoo of Superman (the big "S") on his shoulder. He is 33 years old and still loves Superman. He is also a very good guitar player. He has a special wife and two sweet daughters. My daughter has always loved baby dolls and could not wait to have children. She had a difficult time understanding why she had to wait and grow up before she could have a baby HaHa. She used to play mommy with her baby dolls and her and her cousin would line them and play church with them. She is now 30 years old married to a man that loves her so much and has a son and two daughters.

I am so very thankful for the children that God has blessed me with. I am very proud of them and love them very much.

I can not leave out my Husband. He really is my best friend I love him.
