"The Best of Me"

Today we went to LeSueur to get my mom some new lenses for her glasses.  After that we headed to the Olive Garden for nourishment and then on to the Mall for a mini shopping trip.  As mom shopped Herbergers, Cold Water Creek and found what she wanted, I headed to target...
well yes,
it happened... I got all caught up in the book department!
I spent over an hour there looking at books, thinking what I'de like to read,
and yes,
I had it in my hand "The Best of Me" by Nicolas Sparks. (30% off of 25.99)
Something inside me welled up and said "you do not need to "pay" for a book, you have 100 of them at home to read already and the library will lend it to you for free"
"but, I really want a book to start tonight, and this sounds really good..."
So,
I left Target without the book - it seems rationalization got the best of me and I decided to order it from the library.
When we got home from Mankato, we dropped off our stuff and drove to a quick garage sale in Green-Isle.  I got the ladies history, laughed a little
and yes,
I picked up a book.  I had it in my hand "The Best of Me" by Nicolas Sparks! (5.00 total bill)
So,
I started the book and this is one of the first things I read, however, I have added my own twist.

YOU ADD SO MUCH JOY TO MY LIFE AND I'M PROUD OF ALL OF YOU!!  AS MY CHILDREN, YOU ARE, AND ALWAYS WILL BE, THE BEST OF ME!!

AS MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS, YOU ARE, AND ALWAYS WILL BE, THE PART OF ME THAT I WANT FOREVER.

AND AS FOREVER IS HERE NOW, I AM SO THANKFUL YOU ARE A PART OF ME, FOREVER...  THE BEST PART OF ME!!
and yes,
I LOVE YOU!
