The bond that gets stronger with time...

A few weeks ago I got the chance to spend a whole week with my lovely mother. While Marius was away doing HIS thing in the land of Royalty, I spent a lovely week keeping my mom company (and having her keep me company too!!). I always loved spending time with my parents...so every time I get a chance to be with them, I definetly take full advantage of it (especially now with the distance between us). The more time I spend with her, the more I pray to God that he give me a quarter of her faith and of her dedication to her family. She's always been there for me and Marius...she's always been there for my dad...and she's always been there for their friends. Everyone calls her to ask her to pray for their needs...as if they all know that when she does it, she does it with all her heart...and it's as if everyone thinks that God will really listen to her (which I see more and more each day that He sure does!). I am so blessed to have her in my life and I am so blessed to know that in every single prayer, my name is being spoken to God by her...and that gives me peace and assurance. The week was not free of crazy mother/daughter arguments...but I guess that's the way we communicate....she still thinks I'm the crazy 5 year old with curly curly hair and a contagious laugh...and I always make it a point to tell her that I'm a married woman with a household now...HAHAHAHAHA...I can only imagine what goes on in her head when I say that...because she knows me and she knows that I haven't matured one bit!!! But a mother's love is unconditional...and I feel that more and more each day.
Besides that, things in MA are "blooming".....SPRING is here and as we celebrate the beauty of it, we are also hit at times with an unexpected snow storms...but I guess that's the same in life; we sometimes get all excited about renewal in our lives, but at times have to put up a few "storms"...but those too shall pass!!!
I hope everyone is having a great time...enjoying life to the fullest...and give your mamas a call and tell them you love them!!!!!
