The Bench

Jeff, Marlayna, and I took a drive to Manteo for an early Mother's Day celebration.  The weather was beautiful so we sat on one of the benches looking out over the water.  The view was gorgeous, the breeze felt wonderful, and the conversation was easy and fun.  I felt such contentment in that moment.  If only my son had been there it would have been perfect.  Still, as it was, I felt blessed with all that God has given me, and I found Him there on that bench today.
