I'm glad that you are working outside the home now although it surely will be different working as a teacher's aide and seeing this generation of children. I'm sorry about the rough year you had trying to adjust to the changes in life and I can feel a bit of that myself as my own children are growing up and are in college right now and the house is a lot quieter as they're not here much anymore. But each change comes with a different season and you're right it's more time to do the things that you and your husband want to do. Each change has its Joys and its Sorrows I think. I hope the Lord blesses your time at the school and I know you will be an encouragement to the kids that you are teaching!

Debbie, I miss all those sweet times you mentioned , with my family too. Remember for two years Emma was here so much, I became very attached to her. Now she's 13 and never spends the night or even visits. I do go there and get my hugs.:) You will see it all in the schools today. I visit my daughter's class at Christmas and hear all the tales and see all those faces. Some need hugs and some need to stand in the corner. LOL. Wishing you the very best. Love you, blessings always, xoxo, SusieSusiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06425051654313691986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2084376826721259321.post-66597518409821300712017-10-25T05:56:59.022-07:002017-10-25T05:56:59.022-07:00Dearest Debbie, Your home is lovely and reflects t...Dearest Debbie, Your home is lovely and reflects the beautiful heart you carry inside you my friend. Yes, change happens at every stage of life. It sounds like you are embracing it well and finding the joy in knowing you raised your children to go forward and that is such a blessing.

Things change but we each have a purpose in our own unique ways. I love your windows and the curtains. Here I moved into a place with window blinds and I don't like them at all but to put up curtains would be a big expense I'm not prepared to make so I endure them. Still I have a lovely view of trees all around the house, so I count myself blessed.

Fortunately he and his wife are living with us for 3 more weeks until they sign the papers on the house they bought. That's kind of helped the transition, but I am dreading them leaving. My house will feel quiet and empty after 28 years of kids and noise. I kind of want to sit and cry.<br /><br />Your house looks beautiful as usual. xoKim@Snug Harborhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12066749954523201722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2084376826721259321.post-69420368850625666272017-10-23T18:58:22.777-07:002017-10-23T18:58:22.777-07:00Hi Debbie

Your buffet and pumpkins are so pretty!<br />We had a beautiful fall here in MI, didn't we? Until today it's been feeling just like summer!Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16819485082242629764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2084376826721259321.post-10661641453216240012017-10-23T16:31:38.556-07:002017-10-23T16:31:38.556-07:00Hi Debbie

We were so heavily invested in the birth and growth of the quadruplets - and during the 52 days Amber spent in the hospital - and on through these last 5 years. Now they are in school all day 5 days a week for most of the year. Now we are free to invest in other areas of our life. So we are spending more of our time in the country with Dean and Sherry.....My husband’s son and his wife. Plus I’m painting more and we’re doing things we didn’t have time to do before. However, it’s still kind of melancholy for the kids to grow up! <br />The quads FaceTimed us yesterday and Kailey said, “Meemaw, you’re missing all the FUN of us!”<br />I love all your beautiful photos! Your place is so soft and romantic......I just love it! Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09623820316056914224noreply@blogger.com
