Sunday

I am so thankful for family time and our usual Sunday traditions. It’s a pretty simple day, we wake up, Mike makes us breakfast and we get ready for church. Our service at the 1st Missionary Baptist Church is always inspiring and truthful and the words come straight from the Word of God. I appreciate that so much, especially living in the sad, dangerous, Godless world that we live in now.

After church we come home, have dinner, and just hang out. The kids sometimes go skating and we go and watch, or we just hang out and watch TV or read a book . Sometimes Mike’s Mom,Sylvia, our friend Sharon, and his brother Gerald and his 2 kids come over for dinner with us and it’s a great day. I love that we have such a close family. It’s pretty cool that I have 3 teenagers that want to hang out with their old Mom and Dad on Sundays. A few years from now, I will look back on these days and wonder why I didn’t appreciate them more. The kids are 13, 15, and 17 now, and in a few months, Mikey will be off to college and our life will change. So as I sit here thinking, what we should be doing, I realize that we are doing the best thing that we can and that is spending time together. It doesn’t get much better than that.
