So this is how it feels...

So this is what it feels like when your daughter marries &
moves away. You have to love the son-in-law in new ways. Those
"no-matter-what's" become such a clear reality. Not that I'm God's
mother-in-law, but, um, yeah, I'm nagging Him like I am!!!

I love God in a new way. Fresh encounters. Aware & alert.

My old, stale, tired, used faith is renewed in God's great faithfulness. Mercy!!!

It's time for the Mother-In-Law dance with the Father.

Blessings to you Eva. You, who are a blessing to so many.

This is where I am struggling.....
And now it's even harder with a precious grandbaby far away too.

Sorry.. I meant to say, its time for the Mother-In-Law dance with the groom.

But you knew that, right?

Praying, my friend. I won't even try to pour on some "feel good" statements. You know all that. Won't try to give you advice. You could give ALL of us advice on how to do this. I'll just keep praying for God to surround you with grace and peace and blessing.
