Well this is the first time that we are on a beautiful island without my honey bunny. This resort in Mexico is absolutely beautiful. It is huge with everything you can imagine - except my honey.
It's funny how some things that we take for granted remind me of special times with my honey bun. Yesterday we took a walk to the beach and someone was flying a kite right after the sunset. I looked at the sunset and remembered how my husband and I had experienced the Mexico sunset together and also flashed back to a beautiful picture I have of him in Dominican Republic with his tuxedo on and the sunset picturesque sky behind him. Wow. I then realized that my daughter was also thinking about him as she turned to me and said "you know mom I always wanted to fly a kite" and I said "but Nikki you did with your daddy when you were a little girl" and she replied, "no mom, I was too small to get it up into the sky so daddy had to do it for me so it's not like I really did it". Wow, the smallest things. So here my daughter was left with that desire to one day fly a kite with her daddy again, just as she was left with the desire to dance with her daddy again. These are the little things that our busy schedules keep us from doing to enjoy each other and to enjoy our relationship with Jesus. Please think about your situation and the things you have not done with your child, the precious moments you have not had with your child and/or your spouse and do them because tomorrow is not promised to anyone. Also, think about the time you spend with Jesus and spend more time with Him because in the grand scheme of things - that really is the only thing that matters. As a parent of a teenager I truly treasure the moments we can spend together because she's at that age where she would just rather be with her buddies. I would imagine that the Lord is in the same place, He desires more of those special times with us but so many other things get in the way. Don't let your busy schedule get in the way of deepening your relationship with Jesus.
