Could you have ever imagined when you were a kid, or especially a teenager, that you would ever love your parents so much that you would tear up at the sight of their plane landing or could not stand to see them go? It is the most amazing thing in the world to have your parents by your side...or even in your house just for a weekend visit. The love and joy it brings me to see my parents playing with my kids is unfathomable. Really, do we have to get older or could we all just stop growing and enjoy life at this stage for just a minute more? Would it be asking that much to roll down the hill again or stop and smell the flowers just one more time? I am so thankful for the joy and gift that family brings and praise God that we get to catch a tiny glimpse of His love for us as we share love in our families.
But seriously, how could any place in Texas be so far from Oklahoma...the states touch for goodness sake? I wish my parents lived next door too so we could play together everyday.
