Create An Inviting Fall Porch

October 20, 2014 By Meegan Leave a Comment

Fall is in full swing around here. Well, as far as decor goes. Weather, well that is another story. It was in the 90s yesterday and the low 70s last night. I am enjoying the warmth as long as I can. BUT, I do love to Create An Inviting Fall Porch.

Today I want to show you how I can Create An Inviting Fall Porch in minutes with LITTLE TO NO COST. It’s fun easy, and you can just what you have around your home.

There is Always Something To Be Thankful For

There is Always Something To Be Thankful For. That is my mantra for the week. I try to use it everyday of my life but, this week it was needed a little more.

This week has been one of the hardest weeks I have had in a long time. My dad was admitted to the hospital with failing health. I stayed every waking moment with him that I could.

He has kidney failure, heart failure, diabetes, bronchitis, and Parkinson’s. It is a hard thing to watch someone you love suffer. It does break your heart.

And, yet I know…

I KNOW this with ALL of my heart.

As I visited and sat with my failing Dad. I was reminded of the blessing he has been in my life. The wonderful grandpa he has been to our children and grand-babies.

The bags and bags of groceries he would buy, just because. The Christmas mornings watching his face watch the kids open presents. This was priceless. The Thanksgiving dinners filled with turkey and Honey Baked Ham (his favorite). The graduations attended, the soccer and football games, the choir concerts, beauty pageants, all with his excitement and glory reveling in his grandchildren.

That is what I am thankful for today. I am grateful to have spent countless hours just sitting by his side. Also,listening to each of our nearby children share their love of their Papa. Words of love, that will forever warm my heart and soul. Singing from a daughter that will be etched in my heart forever. I have so much to be thankful for.

I hope and pray I never forget

There is Always Something To Be Thankful For.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your families.
