Embracing a new time in life!

Many of my Facebook friends are quite a bit younger than I am.  Yup, I'm in the "Mentoring Mom" stage of life--somewhere between raising my own little ones and playing with the grandbabies!

I love reading about them having their own little ones...as long as I don't have to do it again.  I would take another teenager over a baby any day!  Of course, my labor experiences are the ones that you never tell a first time mom.  Who wants to hear about being in labor for 6 days?  Or 3 surgeries by the 3rd birthday?  Or a baby that still isn't sleeping through the night on their 6th birthday?  But as a Titus 2 mom; well, I'm "value-added".  No matter where you are in life now...you will survive.  Because I did.  And if there is a pitfall, I was probably there about 20 years before you.  And my kids survived...yours will too!

And if you're interested, I'm blazing another trail this year!  Our son is getting married AND our daughter is going away to college...10 days apart!  Honey, when I empty a nest; I do it with STYLE!  And here's the kicker--I'm excited!  My kids are ready for these adventures, and hopefully I soon will be.  What's next for me?  Only God knows; but I'll fill you in as soon as He tells me!
Feeling blessed, how about you?
