I treasure ...Thank you to all you beautiful ladies! I treasure all of you! @Leah and Candy: I read your entries each time you post a new one. I wish I was so disciplined as you both. Although I don't always comment, your blog entries always touch and/or encourage me. You both are gifted writers and I am always blessed! <br /><br />And to my faithful friends, Tonya and Tess, you continue to be such a blessing in my life. I pray you both will enjoy many years of longevity with your sweet men. Just know that if the Lord were to separate you by calling them home before yourself; the Lord would be faithful to carry you too. He promised and He cannot lie. I love you all dear ladies. Thank you for stopping by.<br />Giant hugs, Renee'Renee' B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18298547598684930937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-697497308622882249.post-12073382027193874252012-01-13T10:25:39.368-05:002012-01-13T10:25:39.368-05:00Ahh, Renee, you have written it so well! I, too, ...Ahh, Renee, you have written it so well! I, too, leak during the day. And, I, too, always find myself tearing up with this knife stab to my heart when I see older couples displaying their love and devotion for each other. It's a grief trigger and a reminder of the things that I will be missing.....the things that I planned for and so longed for. Thank you for saying it so wonderfully.Candyhttp://www.reflectionsfrommyporchswing.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-697497308622882249.post-31057157990786112012012-01-12T23:43:50.974-05:002012-01-12T23:43:50.974-05:00Dearest Renee,
There is just no knowing what wi...Dearest Renee,<br /> There is just no knowing what will make us leaky!!! The smallest thing, the gentlest reminders can blind-side us. As Tess wrote about her fears of losing her hubby, I cannot think of losing my Bill. He is diabetic, and after I read this blog post I tried to make him promise that he will outlive me...so he goes;"I'll try." Then I wanted to smack him! LOL!!!!<br /> But, I get leaky at the strangest times over Elsie. We can never know how deep it all goes until after someone is gone.Not to take away anything from my own beautiful mother, but Elsie was such a beautiful second mother to me. Sometimes it takes your breath away. But getting leaky less and less is such a sign of healing. <br /> I love you, friend Renee, and am encouraged for you.

I also feel the same way about elderly couples. They always break my heart and make me joyful, all at the same time. Although I try not to, I worry that because of my husband's health issues, we won't see old age together, either. I love him to pieces, even as ornery as he is. Just like Buck was yours, he is also my best friend. I will pray again tonight that God holds your broken heart in the palm of His hand and that you will find "joy again tomorrow".

But, I see restoration written all over you, and your healthy grieving brings hope to my aching heart.Leah Stirewalthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16177118020035176209noreply@blogger.com
