Macro Monday damselfly or dragonfly?

I have to share my sweet friend Justine and her beautiful photos. I have this fear of dragonflies and I love her photos and how the wings look like lace! Check out her Saturday fun! 😀

Macro Monday damselfly or dragonfly?

Alright I confess I do not know whether this is a damselfly or dragonfly.

However one of you might?

I took this photo amongst many others when visiting the London Wetlands Centre recently.

BLING my Spongbob Yellow Mustang & BB for you sweet BLING

BB and Spongebob Mustang

BLING I told you BB had a SpongeBob Yellow Mustang and this is one of the photos her dad left for me tonight. The note also said, “Do you remember how baby girl loved the Yellow SpongeBob Mustang, I bought it for you and baby girl because she loved SpongeBob I love this picture Michelle.

I love you BLING I hope you love this photo! Show Deb!

It’s not what I did it’s what I didn’t do

Today when I was mowing I noticed someone had gone through all my photos of Alex [BB] . I called her dad [Mike] he said he wanted to show his employees how much she had grown and how much he missed her being young. Well y’all I have to tell you I let it go and I said, “You know you have all those photos because of me I took all of them because I knew there would come a day when you would regret all you didn’t do and I wanted you to have photos of baby girl when she was little. Of course I cried all day about it…..

mostly because I felt insignificant in her life and that he was taking all the credit for her being the woman she is today…….

tonight I went to get something to eat and when I got back these were on the table with a note that said….

It’s not what I did it’s what I didn’t do and I know you took all these photos and I’m sorry Michelle please forgive me.
When it concerns BB it’s hard for me to not see RED, to not charge and attack the enemy I see against me. BUT there’s one more I wanted to share and I want to dedicate it to my BLING friend. If it wasn’t for she and B, I would be lost without their wonderful support and telling me I’m a good mom and a good person. There are those that believe different but what I want to ask you is this?

Do you have a chronically ill child? Do you know what it’s like to watch someone die? Do you know what’s it’s like to face death everyday? Well I do…..so here’s what I’ve come up with….in this life you will have trouble but thank God for REAL friends that don’t want a thing from you but give out of the abundance of their heart and you sweet friends know who you are.

I may stop blogging for awhile between baby girl and my job my plate is full and I don’t know after 24 years of knowing her dad maybe he’s changing. I’ve never loved anyone like I loved him…I’ve been waiting for him to change and even if he doesn’t I’m not giving up on him. Cause we got this girl together and she’s our whole world.

I hope this makes sense I’m crying as I type this….I’m not editing.

Perpetual state of grace

I’ve never claimed to be perfect
but one thing I know it is the grace
of God I lean on not the words of man
Say what you want to about me but
I still believe in goodness and kindness
always

It’s the goodness of God that draws man

Take my hand together we’ll cross and the memories we leave behind there isn’t nothing we can’t face with your hand in mine

Take my hand
together we’ll cross
and the memories
we leave behind
there isn’t nothing
we can’t face
with your hand in mine

Now I have a New Memory and Happiness from within

painfulmemory

I listen to the water rush
I released the
sound of your voice
washed away the pain
as if I had no choice
In it’s place
I snapped this photo
I sent it to my friend
Now I have a New Memory
and Happiness from within
