This is the final day of National Blog Post Month and I met my goal of posting a blog a day. It’s been difficult at times to find something meaningful to share with you. Not that I don’t have anything to say, there is so much more to our story I am confident I can write about caregiving for many years to come. The sometimes difficult part is to be inspired on any given day to the degree that will honor all that you do.
This weekend two of my youngest granddaughters were here over night. They ran me ragged and I loved every minute of it. They just left with their Mom. I knew it would be exhausting but I want to spend as much time with them as possible while they are little and I am still able to hold them on my lap and tell them stories. One of the things I treasure most about these visits is the hugs. Tiny arms wrapped around me always bring me a sense of peace and an outpouring of love. It doesn’ matter how young or old we are, a hug is one of the greatest gifts we have to offer.
Hug your loved one today. You will both be enriched by it.

Time is priceless. Anything that you share is worthwhile and meaningful. Knowing someone is there is meaningful. Thank you. 😊

Thanks for sharing your post for today – and all the others during the month of November. Thanks for allowing me to post as a guest and for the opportunity for others to share as well. I receive a lot of hugs during the Thanksgiving holiday as my son and his family were in from out of town; so I had ALL of my kids, their spouses and ALL of my grandkids together…we had loads of exhausting fun!! But the tiredness was worth it all!

I echo the sentiment of the others. Also, I am recommending your book to my book club at our annual social on December 7. Thank you for all your efforts. They do not go unnoticed.

Craig,
Thank you for your comment. It means so much to learn that people appreciate the things I share. I am thrilled that you will recommend my book to your book club. I try to get it in the nads of as many book clubs as possible. If the people in your group would like to talk to me after reading it we can schedule a Skype visit or Goggle HangOut sometime.
