Thankful

My mom in law was here for a few days and it was really good. She has been down a little with Dick passing and who wouldn't be if they lost their husband. I am proud of her strong will and how she is trying to see the good in everything. Knowing her first year alone will be tough in many ways. We were glad she shared some things with us when she was here and we had a lot of laughs and fun times. She got to enjoy some time with Kathryn which really boosted her mood. I think just seeing and remembering we are here for her and love her was what she needed.
Always be thankful for another day because no matter how old or young or who you are you are not promised tomorrow. I often wonder if I had to face "tomorrow" without Koran what would I do? I hope I would have the strength his mom has had. I hope I would be strong and show my daugther that even when life throws you a curveball, you keep on hitting. Funny how we admire people for the traits we never saw until they really have to show them.
Reminds me to always be loving. To remind my family and friends how important they are to me every day. I can not believed how blessed Koran and I are by the people in our lives. I just hope we show them in every way how we feel.
Tomorrow is not promised so remember to give the extra smile or touch. The extra I love you and thank you. Those are what we will be remembered for some day.
