I am ever so grateful to Ruth Ayres for inviting us to share and celebrate events, big or small, from our week.
January was a tough month for me, and I was happy to be able to turn the calendar page. I have not written a celebration post since early January.
Today I celebrate hard things, because through hard things I become stronger.
I celebrate rainy days and my husband's wisdom for planning and knowing there will always be one...someday.
I celebrate mentors and the rekindling of relationships with students...even those separated by a period of absence.
I celebrate short evenings alone with my husband...knowing in our hearts and dreading the day when these evenings become days or weeks or months.
I celebrate my daughter's smile and the feeling in her heart...knowing she has made the right decision.
I celebrate a sweet message from a friend...I have missed your celebrations.
I hope you have a week filled with celebrations.
I'm sorry you've been through such a tough time, Leigh Anne. I can feel your strength in your words. Take care and keep looking for those celebrations.

So sorry to hear that January has been tough, Leigh Anne. Here's to a Fabulous February. Happy to have you back celebrating.
ReplyDeleteJanuary is often one of the hard months for me - I'm always sad to say goodbye to Christmas and it's a long month. February feels short and sweet. I'm glad that you looked for the celebration in rainy days and hard times. Glad you received a sweet message from a friend. Happy to hear from you today and praying for easier days ahead.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you had strong people to hold on to through that difficult month; glad of your turn to February and the movement toward better days; so glad you're back!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you've gotten through January. I was thinking that today too, that sometimes I want to just fast forward through certain days. But then I might miss that one little positive thing that happened that day. I hope February brings you light.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you have good people with you despite the hard challenges, Leigh Anne. We all support you & send a hug!
ReplyDeleteSending a hug across the ocean.
ReplyDeleteLeigh Anne-you will be in my prayers this week for peace and lots of joy! I'm so thankful that you wrote today so you could be encouraged. Here's to a Fantastic February.
