Thankful Thursday


I am thankful for my mom and our Dee-deed(my sister). I don't get to see them very much just because of where we live and because of the fact that Dee-deed recently moved out, but when they do come and visit, I enjoy it. Last night they came because Dee-deed's cat of 17 years has gotten away. Dee-deed hadn't been able to get her yet because of some things going on with her townhouse, so she had left Skootie-pootie here until things are ready. Skootie found a way out of the fence and has disappeared. We have looked for her for a few days with no luck. We are sad because we just don't know where she has gone. We have posted flyer's and were even out with flashlights last night looking for her. We are praying that someone has found her or that she comes back home.

Anyway, I am thankful for them. They are two of my best friends and I can tell almost anything to them. You are hopeful that the time comes when your relationship with your mom changes from a parent/child relationship to a friend/friend relationship and that's how we are. Of course, mom still gives much needed parent advice sometimes, but knows when to be a friend at the same time. Dee-deed and I have a special relationship anyway. We have always been there with each other through the good and bad times and she gives me advice when needed. She reminds me to look at the good in things when I get worried sometimes ,but gently tells me to calm down a bit and think about things before making rash decisions. I'm really blessed to have each of them in my life and I love both of you with all my heart!!
