This fall I was running late for work, nothing new. But this site I had to stop and soak in.
I left the house being my grumpy morning self, leaving my wife and kids for the day in a not so nice way, like I had done many times before.
On this morning, it was like God himself pulled my truck over to look at the view. As I stepped out of my truck, my summer vacation came to mind. I could see the smiles on my kids faces as we walked down the board walk. I sent off the ocean filled the air as a vision of my wife came into my mind.
I myself believe that was him letting me know that its the little things in life that matter.
Sad to say, I took that day for granted like so many of us do.
We all have that day we wish we could go back to, and this would be mine. Folks, we all let things come between marriages. Money, stress, work, and this list goes on. But it is the little things that keep it together. Its the little notes that she has put in my lunch box. Its the understanding tears when I cry over my parents. Its the hugs that I get out of no where.
Ya see folks, its the things that we might skip over everyday that matter.
I just thank the Lord for opening my eyes every once in awhile to remember this.
Amy, my love
I only hope that everyday you know how much I love you. How much I will always need and want you in my life.
Joey and Jade,
You two are my world. I only hope that I myself can be a father that you will be proud of someday
