It is a good reminder to cherish what I have, while I still have it. And good advice for the future, when I have to let them go.

Now the daughter makes up for the lack of calls from the son...lol This really could be a guy thing. I am just happy he lives so close and I can drop in on him. We have a good relationship but he is just in the stage of life where he is more into hanging out with his own age. I am sure I didn't call home all the time when I moved out at his age either!...lol Bad on me!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17096389196788427153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9197064827107819886.post-87738131251579055582008-10-23T11:39:00.000-07:002008-10-23T11:39:00.000-07:00I wish I could have a "do-over" with this good adv...I wish I could have a "do-over" with this good advice in mind with John. I was so afraid of another painful rejection from him that I just shut down and stayed away as he requested. Hindsight tells me that I should have tried to keep in touch by writing even if he threw them all away.<BR/>I am so very grateful for your wisdom and would bet that he'll come around someday.<BR/>Hang in there, Mom.P-Dothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13148217708832668431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9197064827107819886.post-34730703199184741422008-10-22T21:32:00.000-07:002008-10-22T21:32:00.000-07:00This is just such a sweet post.

It might take just a little while for him to show it. :) It seems like, when children grow up and have kids of their own, that's when they understand the depth of a mama's love. I have faith that he will come back around!

Jesus catches every single offering. I like that very much!<BR/><BR/>Darlene...So true you are, they really are not ours but His to train up and then God allows the free will to take it from there. Other then him forgetting to call home, he really is happy and doing good...I just miss him dearly not seeing him everyday, Thank you Lord that he only lives 20 minutes away!...lolChristinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17096389196788427153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9197064827107819886.post-38981417813396269712008-10-22T12:39:00.000-07:002008-10-22T12:39:00.000-07:00constant offering... expecting nothing in return.....constant offering... expecting nothing in return... but ever longing for it. Your post has made me weep, out of the deep difficulty it takes to create life, nurture it, and then give it away. God keeps telling me, "He was never yours to begin with, my child."<BR/>Being a mother, we are forced into the role of servant. We will only fulfill this role well if we are godly servants.<BR/><BR/>sigh. motherhood.<BR/>Darlene{darlene}https://www.blogger.com/profile/17310243306735564898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9197064827107819886.post-86628963850096379312008-10-22T12:25:00.000-07:002008-10-22T12:25:00.000-07:00P.S.
