Thankful for some time this afternoon to sit on the patio and watch the birds. I know many on this site are dealing with care-giving for an elderly parent—sending you a big hug from me as I learn to negotiate those challenges! :)
a lifelong Michigander...enjoy photography and have a new camera to learn. favorite subjects include flowers, light and its effects, Marty the family Welsh springer,...
caregivers are a gift. caregiving is at best a challenge but a challenging gift. you will be thankful you did it but that doesn't make it any easier as you go through it. prayers for patience, guidance, rest for you as needed and the best possible outcome in your situation.
Thinking of you and sending lots of love. I've spent the last year caring for elderly relatives, so my heart is right with you. Hope your Mum is doing okay. Pretty bird to sit and watch.
Amy it is so important that you look after you as well as you care for others. sitting with camera in hand watching birds can be so mindful, so enjoy your 'me time'
