Had a great day catching up with family we haven't see in a long while. Adelyn was super happy to have guests, as she always is. She kept yelling out, "they're here, they're here," every few minutes while we were waiting for them to arrive. It makes me so sad that the weeks, and the months go by, and so much time passes between visits. As Matt and I were talking about our very pleasant afternoon and evening, we decided, no more. No more will we allow the months to pass us by without visiting with those we love and care for. We must make time for family. Because when we're old, and we're looking back over our lives, we won't ever say, "man, back in 2013, April through July was just crazy busy." There will always be busy times. Busy times are just a fact of life. Another fact of life? Life is short. And we must take every opportunity we can to spend time with loved ones.
Thankful for Jeff and Gary. Thankful for our time together today. It was just so, so good to see them. Beyond good. Thankful for a day well spent with those I love.
