GO:
If you met me . . .
You'd see . . .
a rather rotund, short and somewhat insecure woman who often feels like a school girl
a straight not curly haired brunette with a smattering of grays in the mix
a pair of hazel green eyes seeking to connect with you and assure you that I'm listening
a face lit up with a toothy smile at your arrival
a kindred spirit seeking to welcome you, encourage you and nuture our friendship into a long and lasting one
If you met me . . .
You'd hopefully see . . .
a kind hearted soul who loves Jesus
a wife passionately in love with her husband, longing to submit to and care for him
a mother desperately trying to raise two boys to be loving, faithful men of God
a daughter grateful for her loving parents and especially her best-friend, her mother
a sister loving her brother and his family
If you met me. . .
You'd also see . . .
that I love to collect old things
that I love frozen cokes, tea, coffee and french fries
that I love flowers, birds and anything to do with farm life
that I . . . love . . .
STOP.

ReplyDeleteAnd a mother inlaw who LOVES YOU dearly ,and whom i know you love to .
ReplyDeleteLovely post! Nice to 'meet you' here in the online world and I think I would enjoy meeting you in the real world. Thanks for sharing your heart and giving a peek into who you are. :)
ReplyDeletehmmm reading this is so comforting, you seem so warm and friendly. I like your comment about the grey hair I have a few of those now too. I am also a mommy to 2 boys. What is a frozen coke, it sounds really good :)
ReplyDeleteI HAVE met you and consider you one of my most cherished friends (hubby too, but don't tell him that. Don't want him to have a big head!) I love your blogs!
ReplyDeleteThank you for all those kinds words! Had I had more than 5 minutes you would have also learned that: If you met me . . . I can be very forgetful and may not always remember your birthday or anniversary. That I am a worry wort and will rethink everything I ever said to you, hoping that I haven't said anything wrong. If you met me, you'd know that I don't always say the right things at the the right time. I can be a bit of a nervous Nelly and it might take 1 or 2 times before I agree to go do something. If you met me, you'd also know that I am far from perfect and stand in need of God's grace on a daily basis. If you met me, despite my imperfections, I think we'd be very good friends. Friendships are the flowers in life's garden.
