Today's MOOD be.......MIXED EMOTIONS
This be me, Chaplain Debbie, wit' me grandson, Pirate Lucas. (aka Pooh Bear) Lucas will be turning 5 years old this July. He is me first grandchild and we be very close.
As the Tin Man said to Dorothy, "I know I have a heart, because it's breaking." My SIL Ryan, daughter Debra Dawn and Lucas will be moving to Idaho this Saturday. It could be over a year before I will be able to hug my Pooh Bear again.
I know that this is something that has to happen and (in a way) I am happy for their new adventure. I am grateful that they will not be alone in Idaho; Ryan's parents live there and they will be staying with them for awhile. I simply adore the Smith's and I know that they will take good care of my daughter and Lucas. I had 5 fantastic years with Pooh Bear, so now it's time for Brent and Becky(his Grandma and Papa) to have him for awhile. I am thankful that he is old enough to remember me....not that I would ever let him forget me.
Even though I will not be able to physically touch Lucas, there are ways that we can keep in touch. Skyping, texting, videos, Facebook, letters..........and whatever else I can come up with! (Quick! Someone invent a portal between states, now!)
Only time will heal my hurting heart and I know that with God's help I will be able to do this.......to let him go and have a wonderful time in Idaho......IDAHO!!!
GRAMMY AND POOH BEAR
And pray for me............for everything!!!!
That be me MONDAY MOOD SWING, Mateys! Thanks fer comin' aboard! God bless.
