I was looking back at the pictures of my children when they loved to Trick Or Treat several years ago.
Not so surprising for me I teared up because I miss those days so much.


As a father who LOVES his children I know I lost a lot of time with them because of divorce and the every other weekend routine.


I wish I could have been right there with them every single day as they quickly grew up.


I remember my mother telling me how her life changed when my brother and I were both off to college and how lonely she felt.


I remember a lot of things my mom and dad told me
I just didn’t realize how much truth was in their words until I had kids of my own and experienced the same things myself.


My mom always said ....When your kids are young THEY STEP ON YOUR FEET
And...When they get older...THEY STEP ON YOUR HEART


Even though I miss my children so much since they have gone off to college and one about to go to college..
I’m so proud of who they’ve all become.


There’s a quote from some wise person that once said...


TO RAISE A CHILD, WHO IS COMFORTABLE ENOUGH TO LEAVE YOU, MEANS YOU HAVE DONE YOUR JOB.


THEY ARE NOT OURS TO KEEP, BUT TO TEACH HOW TO SOAR ON THEIR OWN.


God gave us all a very special GIFT.
That Gift is The Ability To Love❤️


Love is like music..It’s The Universal Language


No matter what religion we are, or race, or gender... The Ability To Love is the one thing we all have in Common
So when you give thanks for all the blessings you’ve received....
Don’t forget to give thanks for our greatest blessing of all ...LOVE


“ For God So LOVED The World”


Love can also be painful...because the more you LOVE...The more you may feel pain from a BROKEN HEART


There’s A famous quote that describes it all..


‘‘ ‘Tis Better To Have Loved And Lost
Than Never To Have Loved At All”


I love my children so much that sometimes it hurts from missing them but I’ll gladly take all the hurt that comes with loving them so much.


For the parents who have young children at home still...don’t take a single moment for granted ..
WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR CHILDREN....
LOOK FORWARD EVERY DAY TO THE LITTLE THINGS, THE ROUTINE THINGS AND EVEN THOSE THINGS THAT MAKE YOU WANT TO SCREAM


Time flies by and one day before you know it...You may be the one writing something about your children similar to what I’m writing.


My mom kept telling me in her last years here on earth...


PROMISE ME YOU WON’T EVER FORGET ME


I Took HIS Gift Of Love That HE Gave To Me...AND LOVED My Mother Very Very Much And Because Of My Love For Her And For Her Love For Me...There Is No Way I Could Ever Forget Her.


My Mom said that because she loved her children so much and there will be a day in my life that I will say to my children who I also love so much...


PROMISE ME YOU WON’T EVER FORGET ME


Thank You Lord For Giving Me Your Greatest Gift...LOVE❤️🙏
