Traveling Light

Well one thing you will find out soon enough is I tend to hold on to too much.  As a mother and grand mother I want to always be prepared, whether it's a bandaid or an exotic color marker.  As I pack my bags to come and help welcome you into the world, I come with bags filled to the brim with clothing, paintings, and toys to make your world ever more interesting and fun.  The first thing you do when planning to go on a trip or adventure is to choose what you NEED to take with you.  It's vital and if you have to carry all your own baggage you learn to be much more selective to things you actually need.  When you stop to think about what you need to be happy, it's very very little.  And always remember , no matter how much stuff we pile on ourselves, God is always there for us.  I love you forever and always.
"Don't carry any money with you - gold or silver or copper.  Don't carry a bag.  Take for your trip only clothes and sandals you are wearing."  Matthew 10:9-10a
