It is our foundation.<br /><br />How wonderful that your sons are all doing well and are in touch with you and are eager for your help and suggestions. That is a true blessing in any time!

I've often commented about that very thing. The house new for only a little while then the toilet needs cleaning and the car is new until you drive it off the lot. The wedding day last 24 hrs then it's the rest of your life when the garbage needs to be dealt with. The birth day lasts 24 hrs then the garden needs weeding. There's a lot of ordinary life in between. I read a book years ago titled Pack Wood, Carry Water (or something to that effect) about these ordinary times that can be extraordinary with mindfulness. I am happy with the ordinary that can be extraordinary some days.
