You Have 3 Choices

It’s Friday and I love being a part of A Beautiful Life Series, make sure you stop by there and check out all the post.

I had lunch today with one of my favorite people in the universe.  I shared some life experiences with this lady that I’m pretty sure helped form us both into the women we are today.  I cried when I left her today, a good cry.  She looks great, she is in a great place in her life.  She is a mother, like a real mom, the kind we all want to be.  She asked about my mom today and her simple reply sums it up for me, she said, “I just don’t get it.”  Neither do I.  I never will. 

Seeing my friend today made me think of this sign that hangs in The Baby’s school gym.  Don’t you love it?  Isn’t it so true?  I want to believe I choose #3 more and more. 

I want to applaud some ladies in “blog land” that have faced tough choices this week and are without a doubt choosing #3. 

Ms. Kim continues to try to find peace with a failed adoption.

You gotta love a woman who bears her heart for the whole world.  I know a thing, or two, oh heck I guess I know X3 about a cheating husband, the heartache it can bring, the doubt you have about yourself, and the downright anger that can consume you if you let it.  I’ll be reading this blog to see and share the growth in this great lady. 

I want the weather to improve.  I need spring.  I want to go on bike rides with Mr. Wonderful and The Baby.

I want to walk along the river and find wildflowers.

My life still has a long journey, but it sure looks great to me.
