Coming and Going

Things that are coming:
1. THE TWINS!!!
Only a few more months and I will be an aunt to twins! Thats right, Leah and Michael are expecting and surprise surprise it is twins. I have been hard at work taking care of the little ones via Leah.

2. WINTER
The Abilene winds have arrived and have brought the first cool front which will probably not be the cool front that brings winter.

3. CHANGES
But when is life not changing? Yet, changes are on the horizon for me.


Things that are going:
1. DAVID:
Always leaving, rarely coming and never staying. David came to town for the weekend. It was nice but always bittersweet. We are ready for the long distance to be over with. Saying goodbye is all we ever do. It is not easy.


2. THE KITTY
I rescued a kitten. Of course I rescued a kitten. It was in the parking lot, my heart melted, and we drove all around Abilene searching for a non-euthanizing shelter. And yes she VERY cute and it took all the strength within me not to keep her. I found her on the eve of Juni's anniversary. It has been 3 years already since my Juni passed.
Seeing the little kitten made me think of Juni and Abbey and how life gives and takes. Life took Juni from me and that we dreadfully painful. But life gave me sweet Abbey and precious Rigby both of whom I never would have known without Juni moving on.

I like the colored background change.
I too miss dear sweet Juni but I do treasure the two new ones. Abbey doesn't look so sound asleep as David does.
Love, Mom
