LIVING FOR LEZLIE

Easter

Sometimes when I cannot figure out whats got me in a funk, I realize there is a holiday coming up.


Easter. There pretty much wasn't a holiday she didn't love. She loved them all. I remember one year she asked me if the easter bunny could bring her a pocket knife. He did. She wore that thing in her boot for years. Everywhere she went.


But, holidays are just as hard as birthday, death days and well, everyday. It is another day she isn't here. Now, I do realize she has a better Easter view than us down here but, she should be here.


I always said that when God brings his army back, its going to be amazing. After all, he has the best angels in it.


Still, holidays are hard. Its a day we are celebrating something pretty amazing and Lezlie cannot be here to celebrate.


Somedays, especially those closer to holidays, I get mad, sad, you name it. I should not be the parent without the child. I should not have had to bury someone as amazing as she was. She was the best friend, sister, daughter, cousin, etc. She was God's girl and I guess he took it to heart when he took her from me. She was everything that others would want to strive to be like.


She is still here but she isn't here.


As you celebrate your holiday with your kids, do not take anything for granted. There are way too many of us that would love to be able to be the easter bunny etc with our angels. Yet, we have to sit at a gravesite and reminisce and mourn.


Life is way to short to be anything but happy. Life is way to short to sit and listen to people complain about their kids. Do not take it for granted. Do not take them for granted. After all, we are never promised tomorrow.


Matthew 28:6 "For he is not here, he has risen...."

The righteous perish, and no one takes it to heart;  the devout are taken away, and no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil.  Those who walk uprightly enter into peace, they find rest as they lie in death.

Isaiah 57:1-2
