Life Is Hard...sometimes!

This weekend was incredibly BUSY!  
Yes, Jacob & Emily had their Homecoming night & respective dates on Saturday.  I wasn't able to be at Jacob's dinner to get pictures of he & his date, but I did go and get photo's of my little girl and her date, Jacob Wolfe.  It was surreal, to say the least....do you ever have moments that hit you from out of nowhere, and suddenly you feel as though a huge lapse of time & change has abruptly occured and somehow you were blatantly left out of it all???  Well, that is the very thing I came face-to-face with as I focussed my camera on my sweet daughter Saturday night.  She looked beautiful, of course and I was dumbfounded over how grown-up she was. 

Sunday found me getting up at the crack of dawn....after going to bed at nearly 1am.  The second I stood up, I knew it was going to be a tough day, physically.  My back was in complete spasm for the better part of the day....so much so that throughout the first service @ church, I felt as though my body was uncontrollably convulsing, at times.  Add that to the fact that yesterday some dear friends had some very difficult news revealed about them.  It was a tough thing to watch and process.  It's always a challenge to your faith when decisions are made in a manner that is contrary to what you believe to be fair, and then things are handled in a way that doesn't appear to be completely forthright & truthful.  My spirit was very down-trodden yesterday, because of it.  This is one of those times in life when I am reminded that I live in an imperfect world.  Thankfully Jesus has already overcome the world, and in the end His justice will prevail here!
