No point...

AAHHH! The weekend is upon us!! I am SO ready! This was a long week.
Terry and I are heading down south, so that promises to be REALLY nice!! Next week is a big week for us....so we are super excited. No particular agenda in this write...just thought I'd check in.
I have had SO many things I want to "talk" to you all about...random thoughts, just can't seem to find the time to write these days!! UUGGH!

Anyway...the weather is supposed to be awesome this weekend, so make it a great one!!

All love, folks!

Cake Toppers

How stinkin' cute are these??!?!

They are cake toppers and they custom make them to look like you. I ran into them on one of my favorite sites, Etsy....
It is people from all around that make these in their homes mostly....I LOVE IT!

I think we'll have one made that has Terry with his bow and camo and me with surrounded by all my animals! LOL!

So cute! I had to share! Might be a good idea for birthdays and other special occasions??

Is love still love when it is silent, withdrawn & not seen?

I got to thinking the other day....
Is love still love when it is not active in your life?

I don't know. It is a tough question to answer. My first reaction, or answer would be no. If it is not a visible force, something that I feel because I see it, then it really doesn't exist. But then I think about how G-d is. I can't see Him. I can't hear Him. I can't always feel Him. Does that mean His love does not exist?

I believe He exists. I believe He loves me. I believe that I believe in His love for me because it is evidenced in all that He shows me through others around. So to answer that, I don't believe His love to be silent, withdrawn or unseen.

I was recently told, "I love you, but I can't be in your life." HHMMM....I don't understand that. I am very much at odds. I am glad G-d does not subscribe to that idea...where would I be today?! He and I have OFTEN disagreed! Yet, He continues to not only show His hand in my life, but also His face. In His hands, I find security. But in His face, I find my peace...my joy. Because no matter what I do, have done and continue to do, I KNOW in my heart, He still delights in me. He may not always be proud of what I do, but I KNOW He is still proud of His creation...which is me.

It is because of the standard He has left in my life that it is hard for me to subscribe to a silent, withdrawn and unseen love. I am grateful that He paid the ultimate price just to SHOW me His love....He wanted to make it COMPLETELY clear to me what He felt for me!

As I reflect on my life today, I am SO grateful. It has been an interesting 2 past two year, but as of March 16 this year, through all the changes, all the transition, hurt, tears, laughter and new-found joy, I am grateful for the love shown to me everyday in the looks, laughter, words, hugs and life!

...so at the end of it all, is a silent love, really a legitimate love? I don't think so...despite the situation, I feel if we aren't willing to leave our fingerprint on each other's life...is just isn't real!

Have a great weekend!

Speaking of weekend, a VERY happy birthday to a guy that has been in my life for a long time and is very much a part of our family....ROCKY, Happy Birthday!!!
AND a Happy Birthday to Gumbi! Brittney, I am grateful to you for sharing your life with me! Have a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
