By the time this calendar is published, there will probably some stranger living in my Mama's house-our home. For the first time since I left home 37 years ago it won't be there for me when I go back. Thankfully, I know that I am always welcome at Aunt Mae's or Aunt Katherine's but it will be different. My role with Mama continues to evolve. I've moved into the acceptance stage.
Life is different.
Changes continue to occur but things that I once thought major are now an event in life's transition, each preparing me for the next. I've learned that I can't do everything that I'd like to do, but I take time to do the important things. I see Mama almost everyday that I'm in town and if I don't family or friend does. I go to church on Sunday and bible study on Wednesday. My house is not as clean and neat as it once was.
