Day 12:Virgin a Day

 My dear friend, Laurie, randomly decided she needed to come visit us today for the weekend. She drove 3 hours. We hugged, sipped, laughed and all that. And because her jeans were adorned with our Virgin de Guadalupe I decided to honor the past twelve days with her hip-line...nuff said.
and one more thing...on this day I honor you, Laurie, as I celebrate my birthing date of Kyle Mackey Broughton,aka Scooter, because for a brief moment YOU were his surrogate mother, his "Mary"and my voice, my rock, my beloved friend. 

  This completes the Virgin a Day for 12 days.
Tomorrow I begin my own personal series of Peace a Day, until the end of this year.
Matt and I try to practice PEACE in every aspect of our life.
And I hope you will enjoy the walk with us into the following year...and always.

Good evening, Deb. Looks like you have clocked in early for this final installment as well. And what a finale. The Virgin. An earth mother friend arriving in a flurry of surprise. Joyful memories of mothers and children. Nice way to end this.

Wow, what an amazing journey this has been. How cool is that , that Laurie came to see you? With the most appropriate belt buckle to boot (too bad she didn't have those boots we saw earlier).
Let me know when your B & B is up and running again!

Peace be with you...
