during "breast cancer awareness month," you might not think so, but there is.
lumps in your breast? not good.
lumps in your mashed potatoes? not good.
lumps (of coal) in your stocking? not good.
but lumps in your throat because your daughter, who turns 29-years old today, says to the world, "ok, world, hit me with your best shot".......and the world hits her with the divorce of her parents and the death of her dad at the precise same time that her first 2 babies are born and the loss of her husband's job on the day they were supposed to close on their house and the loss of her husband's father 6 months after that and guess what - you're pregnant with triplets - .........
and she gets back up - each time - with style and grace. with determination and smiling. with belief in the eternal goodness and rightness of everything.....because that's how God planned it.......
a lump in your throat because of that?
yeah. that's a good lump.
