Life is sweet. That is what I mean. It really is. I am finally at a place where I have quit aching and am truly enjoying Ryan's mission. I find that the more pain you feel, the more joy you feel. It is in exact proportions. Therefore, I feel life is pretty sweet right now.
A while back I talked in my blog about being afraid to be alone with my sweetheart again. Well that is definitely a fear that was unfounded. I am truly enjoying having the attention of my husband again. He is such a terrific father. And I have appreciated all the help he has been with the kids and how hard he has worked for all of us. But oh how sweet it is to have his full attention again. At least most of the time.
We just got back a week ago from a trip to Branson and New York. What an awesome trip it was. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Thanks to Keith Whipple again. It is so sweet to have his trips that he puts together in our life. I have to document one embarrasing moment during the trip though. It seems like there is always one. We went to the Shoji Tabuchi show when we first arrived in Branson. This man is a genius with the violin, fiddle, you name it. Anyway, videoing is not allowed. I promise that I was not videoing. But I got pulled out because I was taking pictures. I was just trying to get some really good ones, so I was focusing and snapping and focusing, etc. I guess it looked like videoing. So they pulled me out. They believed me when I said I wasn't videoing, but I spent the rest of the show in the back because my seat had been in the middle of the row on the second row. I did not want to crawl over everyone, AGAIN. But the rest of our time in Branson was AWESOME, or should I say SWEET.
Palmyra, New York was next and it was wonderful. I've been there 3 times before, but every time is new and different. They are always improving things and there is never enough time to see everything anyway, but I had some special experiences there this time. Oh how sweet it was.
You know, I don't think many people read this and I don't think that bothers me at all. I just like to put my history down somewhere. And maybe my family will read it someday. That is all I need. But if you do read this and you want to see something really cute, go to the blog from mine that says STINA. She has a video of Ira doing flips. It is so darn cute. He is a cute little boy. I adore him. I miss him. Oh I better stop now before I remember how sad that makes me, because I want this to be a Sweet Blog.
See ya next time.
This is one of the shows we went to in Branson. It was "The Brett Family Show"
