Two ways to look at that - and I am choosing the better way. The way of multiple blessings and amazing chapters and great adventures and such incredible joy that is my daily life.
Because this daughter of ours lives on the other side of the country and because it's been many years since we've actually spent her birthday together, I'm feeling a little melancholy today. Here are a few pictures that bring back so many sweet memories of our Melinda!
1980 with my Gramma Hetman
1983 swimming lessons
2002 Convocation at Acadia University
2004 Wedding day in Chester, NS
2005 Surprise visit home for my 50th birthday
2013 Mama to 2 sweet boys, Fredericton NB
Happy Birthday, Mel!
blessings to your sweet family.
ReplyDeleteLove this. So neat to see some pictures of Mel when she was little. I see Samuel for sure. What a very beautiful daughter you have raised. Although I don't see her much either I cherish our friendship and Thank God for blessing me with a friend like her. Congratulations on your daughter's birthday. Hopefully in the future you will get to celebrate some together!
ReplyDeleteAh, thanks Mom! I missed you lots. We looked at some old photos of us that night, too, and it brought back memories and lots of laughs, too. Can we have some cake in April for both you and I? ;) Hugs.
