Life feels very hard and scary right now, and yet I see so much beauty in the middle of the struggle. Liam thrives like a young tree. He can use a rolling pin properly, and, with instruction, make children's scissors cut. He shouldn't be able to do these things, but he can. KK thrives, and continues to be excited about arts high school next year. At the moment Chris and Ruth are laughing out in the living room as they paint minis (little statues) for Chris' gaming (Battle Tech) convention this weekend. This hobby has brought him great pleasure over the years and it's fun to watch him get excited about it. However, Bob continues to be anxious and exhausted and in great conflict around his job. We are all scared about money. In San Antonio, Danny is very sick with a high fever - and that worries me. I don't like being away from my loves especially when times are hard.

It does sound like your life is hard and scary right now but I also know you will hold all together with your ability to see through the hard and scary. Liam and KK would keep hope alive in anyone. I know so much revolves around Bob right now and his work situation and I hold him and you in my thoughts and prayers and he works through this and comes to the best solution. Hugs to you, Victoria.

So sorry that life is scary right now, but good to hear the positive things as well. Life is filled with ups and downs. Downs are hard. Hope Danny is better soon.

I do hope that all difficult situations will resolve soon. Glad to see that amidst the fear there is laughter!

I can hear a Monty Python classic humming through my mind, "Always look on the bright side of life"' it has always worked for me, I hope you will embrace it and let it work for you! Good times are often hard come by but well worth the struggle when they arrive. Love life and all who are in it, they all sound like they deserve the very best of you as you do of them. My matriarchal years are often a struggle but I only have to look at one of my beautuful grandsons and all is well with the world. Keep smiling Victoria, the world looks better that way. Bless.
