Share 4 Somethings

 

Happy Saturday, friends! I'm glad you're here to link up with me today for Share 4 Somethings, when we talk about some things we loved, some things we learned, some things that went well, and some things we let go of this month. I'll jump right in! 

I loved: 

...time with friends!

...running into one of "my" girls from my youth leader days. This is sweet Emma, who dated my Drew all through their high school years. 

...this concert with J! 

...pool time!

...live music with Mar!

...this meal that Jonah made!

...getting back into reading once again!

...these new Reef sandals I purchased.

...I loved spending time with all four of my sons!

I learned:

...the truth of this statement. Things happen for a reason, and things don't happen for a reason. God is sovereign, and He is in control of all things in my life! Not one thing that I've gone through in years past has taken Him by surprise; knowing this, how can I be upset if He's the one in charge? I can't. I can accept things for what they are and move on. 

Some things that went well this month:

...my turn at hosting Bunco! I hosted at Karen's house, who is pictured above. I shared this pic of my little travel friend again, because I like to fidget while I drive sometimes, and he's a squish toy. Something else that went well was the repair work I had to have done to my car after my wreck two weeks ago! I got my car back late Thursday afternoon; I've never loved my car so much in the years I've had her! It's funny what we take for granted when something changes, you know? 

Some things I let go of this month:

I don't have a picture for this one, but I keep letting go of control or being the one to figure out all the things. Case in point: with Noah home this week, I wanted to have all the guys over for dinner one night for a family dinner. When I mentioned this to them, they were all agreeable, but Graham texted me back privately, offering to be the host and do all the cooking. So I let him do it, y'all. Sometimes I think it's not the easiest for them to be at my house, because of all the memories; maybe that's true, and maybe it's not. Anyway you spin it, dinner at Graham's house Thursday was delicious and fun. I was so glad to not be the one cooking and cleaning, but I did help with the clean up process. I've never been so proud of one of my sons in all of my life! He did this with zero hesitation and whipped out dinner for six of us like it was nothing. 

I can't wait to read your posts later this week! I'm glad you're here to join in with me for this link party again, friends. I hope you enjoy every second of your weekend! Love to all.
