A New Map



Well here it is another quiet Sunday afternoon. It was very humid when we walked out of the church building onto the parking lot towards our car. We quickly turned on the air conditioner for relief. Headed home thinking about what I would make for lunch. I used to take a head count and an egg count when Sundays came around. Would there be just three, six or seven of us. We always had enough to eat and of course plenty of coffee. Today just Chris and myself thinking we might enjoy a sedate day of listening to the different birds chirping, the distant cow mooing, or the quick rain falling on the roof. The kids are somewhere doing their own thing and that's the way it should be. I think back when we were their age and how everything we did as a young adult was fantastic. Everything we tasted or viewed was worth living for. I wondered how Chris' parents coped or if my Mom every took notice. We have such a bound with our children that they are our favorite people to be around. Their absence has caused us to lose our bearings and we will need to set our sights on a new journey. We'll figure it out, just need to draw up a new map.
