Back Then

Sometimes I look back and see how God gave me a huge blessing when I couldn’t fully understand how big it was at the time. Today, celebrating a birthday of the woman who used to watch my brother and I; I was very much reminded of the blessings in my youth.

There was a group of us.  The parents were friends.  They were (and still are) truly all good people! The kids were friends.  And we were (and still are) truly good people.

It was just a small section of Ingham County that housed us all in a few miles radius.  We went to the same church. We were in the same 4-H.  And if I could freeze those moments in time, we may be able to give Mayberry a run for its money!

Tonight I am thankful for a wonderful gathering today of great people!  And I am thankful to be able to be there to celebrate a birthday of a woman who was my home away from home as a kid! ❤
