Saturday before Mother's Day

I'd been so weepy and was at home Saturday morning with the girls.  We seemed to be quite busy, but I don't know why?!  The morning had gotten away from us and in the late afternoon Kaylie went to get the mail.  She came running in pleased to announce we had gotten a package.

I assumed it was a part Rick ordered and Kaylie insisted it was for me.  Expecting nothing, I still wasn't all that excited about it, then Kaylie said, "It's from Angie Bradner".  I sat down at the dining room table staring at the box before me.  Kaylie and Lexie gathered with excitement, then Kaylie got a knife to open the package.  The girls looked over at me and could see the tears flowing.

Perplexed Kaylie said, "why are you crying? you didn't even open it yet?"

I just needed that package.  I needed to feel the love.  I needed to be remembered.  It had been such a hard few weeks for me.  Meanwhile Angie was dealing with her Mother-in-law's declining health and passing.  But she took time to send me some love, some kind words and sentimental gifts.  I was so touched and blessed.  When we finished looking at everything I had to go into my room and have a good cry.
