...life is like a jigsaw puzzle

...no one knows where the pieces will fit in, or when.

I had a cross to bear today. Ben bridged over from being a cub scout into a boy scout. During that ceremony, Neil, my knight in shining armor with my boy, had to pay his last respects to his father. During Ben's event my mind wandered over to Neil's event. Then I thought about Jack. Neil's dad, Keith, helped mold Jack into his true being when he was a young boy. This would have been the toughest choice for Jack to make. Watch Ben cross over, or pay his respects to a wonderful man. I'm truly glad he didn't have to decide, because in my mind he was there for both of them. It would have caused him too much angst.

My 500 piece puzzle I'm working on will take a long time to finish..but every once in a while I feel like I can add another piece...then tap on that piece, cuz I did it.

  1. You, Barb, are my hero! You are stronger and more capable than you think you are! And you continue to inspire me with your courage and strength. I have been, and continue to pray for you and Ben. Hugs coming your way... :)
