From The Dust Arise

Shake yourself from the dust and arise; be seated, O Jerusalem; loose the bonds from your neck, O captive daughter of Zion. Isaiah 52:2

Around the World and Back Again.

Day 2 – A picture of you and the person you have been closest to the longest.

This is a wicked old picture of me and my momma. I wish it was a better quality but we did not have digital cameras back then so this is what you get.
I love my mom very much.  She is my best friend and the first person I call when I am happy, sad, hurt or mad.  She taught me how to do so many things and walked me through the pains of childhood. There is another sweet little pic of us in my Living a new “Always” post.  
My momma flew back home to Texas from Florida for my birthday this weekend.  I am her super special daughter.  We went to the library, ate authentic Tex-mex and laughed until we almost peed our pants. 
She is a wonderful mother, she wasn’t perfect and I could have used a little more discipline, but she loves me so unconditionally. I have a very small apartment and no extra bedroom much less a bed. She selflessly slept on the love seat and let her children sleep in the more comfortable spots of the bed and couch. 
She gave me everything I ever wanted and sacrifices so much for me, I could never thank her enough.
I love you so much mom, Thanks for coming to church with me this morning. I know new crowds are not your favorite thing and you would have preferred to skip church to get on the road a little earlier, but it meant a lot to me that you again sacrificed your comfort to do something that was so important to me.  
Mom,  I love you around the world and back again.
