Knowing that everything is okay is a huge relief for many of us. At what point does one realize that all is okay? I'm not sure it was this particular year, but I do know that whenever I see my husband's smile, I know that everything will be alright. This past year, it came at different times. For starters, seeing his smile when I went into the hospital made me know that no matter what, I was going to be okay. It came again when he saw me and Bop off on our long road trip. And again, when Bop had his stroke and I was the only one with him, as soon as Kevin arrived, and I saw his smile, I knew it was going to be okay. No matter what it is, Kevin's smile and reassurance always brings me peace of mind. I try not to take him for granted, and in case he doesn't realize it... he is the best thing that ever happened to me! Even in the emotional times we've had lately, with disappointment, sadness, and sorrow, he continues to crack a joke and make me laugh. So I guess as I head into the new year, I will remember to smile, and continue to see how everything is okay, better than okay!
