-Talking with my grandpa about how he and his wife met. Hearing the love he has for her in his voice as he says they just met and they knew. As he continues to take care of her 24/7.
-Having my boss give me accolades that I’m doing a fantastic job even though I haven’t done campaigns like this before; on a day when I felt like I had not a clue as to what was happening.
-Knowing my daddy called just to talk while sitting on the worlds largest porch, even if I wasn’t there. I was on his mind.
-Finding out how a great great grandfather died and listening to other recount what they remember, even if it is evident that the sins of the forefathers are carried down. They’ve ended with our families.
-Knowing my sister has prayed for me when I felt that my weight loss and efforts weren’t going anywhere.
-Walking at night with my husband and knowing that he is pushing me everyday and encourages me to keep it up.Â
-Knowing it is almost quiting time
Ah yes we’ve so much to be thankful for. Who’d have thought Grandpa would be so devoted to Grandma….your Dad never saw any outward signs of affection between them that he remembers….I think I only saw him once give her a peck on the cheek. How proud I am that you and your sister stopped the chain…the sins of the fathers went through enough generations. You will be successful in the weight loss, I know it like I know my name. Stop thinking of it as your toughest battle…you’ve been through harder situations and have come out victorious. Don’t forget, I’m in the “basement” rooting and praying for you.
