Worry.
Everyone has it. After you have children, your life can be consumed by it. Like all parents, I have worries.
I worry about Lexie being taken by a stranger when I am not looking, or someone hurting her when I am not with her. I worry about who comes in contact with her, with us, and if they are one of those people you see on the news that stalked a family or kidnapped a child.
I worry that JTom won’t come home to us at the end of the day.
I worry that something might happen to him while he is flying, driving, or at a plant while traveling with work.
I worry that he won’t always be with me, that we won’t grow old together.
I worry that my babies hearts, will at some point not be protected, and therefore their spirits will suffer. Their lives will be altered for the worse, and I won’t be able to save them.
I worry that as wonderful as things have been, as blessed that we are, at some point the rug will be pulled out. Things will suddenly go from amazing, to horrifying.
There is always a calm before the storm, right?
But I do not worry about these things all the time, or let my mind focus on them. They are thoughts that like any other negative thought, we have to put aside, say a sincere prayer, and remember He has us.
