Two years ago before 5am in the morning, my life forever changed. Part of my heart died when I heard the news that my sweet daddy took his last breath in Italy. I know my mother's own heart must have struggled to keep beating after her loves heart had stopped. Fast forward two years and here we are. What a day of reflection. As I begun the day singing the wakeup song, changing diapers, kissing boo boos, putting out fights and sweeping up cheerio crumbs, I had such a heavy heart. Anniversaries and big events are so different after such tragedy. Weird. Scary. Unknown. Sometimes the build up is worst than the actual day, but I find those days are spent with such special reflection. Reflecting over the hilarious times spent with my dad as well as the "teachable moments", or the many tears dad shed as his heart was so tender. But what I find so comforting is when I reflect over the past years. It stills and settles my heart. As I rewind over the last two years, I am just so amazed that the Lord brought me where I am today as well as my family. No we are not perfect and we still let the dark days win at times, but I am so thankful our faithful Lord has continued to carry us. We can truly praise him when we feel like there is nothing left to give. These past two years have produced so much growth in my own life, my marriage, as a mother and in my own relationship with my heavenly father.. all from the physical separation of my earthly father. Oh how we miss you TC aka BUCKY. I am so proud to see my sisters continue to do great things with the talents that they have been blessed with as well as their men in their lives. Together we are stronger together. I am thankful for our close relationship.
So… as I am reflecting over these past two years, I want to give God the glory for taking my mess of my life and refusing to give up on me. Lord you never quit on us.
My prayer is that when you reflect over the past couple years in your life, you will stand stronger and better as a result of trials and tragedy instead of bitter and weak. For in YOU WE ARE STRONG.
He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Is. 40:29
Life is so precious. May you never take it for granted.
Much love,
Taylor
