Yesterday my mother and I drove to Joplin, Mo.  Driving with my mother is very interesting at times.  She has her view points of directions.  Sometimes it is good and sometimes is well………………………..    Along the way she pointed out the sun dogs, strange cloud formations, lack of trees, new routes, and places to eat.  She loved my GPS.  At times it was different.

 

It did remind me of an important fact, I really do not know how much time I have left with her.  Despite, her words of “wisdom” I enjoyed the times of just being with her.

 

We do not know how much time we have with people, especially of those close.  Cherish every moment.  Laugh.  Tell insane jokes.  Look at all the weird cloud formations, but be reminded: every second is precious.  Every second is important.  Never take it for granted.  Most of all, thank God for all of it.
