I spent a few hours last night with my mother sorting through two decades worth of pictures. It's interesting the thoughts and memories that come back when you see different images. There were pictures of happiness and joy. Pictures of sadness (usually the kids' sadness/unhappiness). There were images of people no longer with us. There were photos of places and things that have changed. People that have changed (age, weight and otherwise).
What I saw were people that have special places in my heart. What I felt was gladness, joy, thankfulness. I'm thankful for the family and friends that God has placed in my life. I'm thankful that he has brought some amazing adventures to date. I trust that he has a number more over the horizon.
Oh, my eldest daughter gets married in forty days.
