Good Morning world!

It now being 8:45 and I awake only 15 minutes now, I have officially slept in!
Knowing that this will be the last day to sleep in this summer it seems somehow fitting to do so. Sorta like when I was back in school.
I went out last night to celebrate a friends birthday. We had a nice time and we shopped. I got a really cool Large Stone Mortar and Pestle for $8.! A set of New in package White California King Sheets 350 thread count for $15! We walked and talked and listened till late in in night 11:30:)
I am so stirred over all the lives around me in the midst of battle. I stayed up late and just prayed and though about the mothers and children who were struggling, The remnant's of lives that remain after familiar suicides, folks suffering with health cares. I just was over whelmed with the issues so many are facing. I sorta just read and prayed and though. Families with children who are disabled and parents worn to the bone. Siblings who are needing and parents left with so little to give and nothing left for themselves. Oh the battles they all face.
Looking around me I always try to observe all that I can so as to gain understanding of the issues I desire a better knowledge about. Issues that I too one day may face in my own parenting. I think preventively. I found myself so aware of so many mistakes I am making in my parenting and I grieve and wish I would pull it up and do a better job of it now, praying and wishing that it is not too late. We raise our kids with the goal to have wonderful healthy independent adults capable of managing, on their own, in a wonderfully thriving life. Is that what I am accomplishing? I falter so. I must do better for them for their futures.
