Love!!

Today i had a feral day. It was just one of those days!!! The man went and played cricket (and to the pub after for presentation)  so i was at home with the kids. By late afternoon i was done......i was exhausted, I was cranky, the kids were not listening and i was done. I put them to bed (a little early), sat down with a glass (bottle) of wine and had a look to see what TIVO had suggested i should watch!!!

Touched by an angel!!! I love it. I used to watch it. It is a beautiful series.

This episode was about 2 brothers. The youngest had mental issues and the eldest was his carer after their parents had died. In the true tradition of the series the eldest brother thought his life was burdened by his brother and the angels were there to help them.

In my state (this was actually the 3rd episode TIVO had suggested so most of the wine was gone) after such a bad day. I didn't even put the oldest to bed, she put herself to bed. I sat and watched this episode and at the end when the angels were doing there thing Monica said something that i think i have to remember to remember. 

the oldest brother said that he (the youngest brother) was his responsibility to which Monica said.......

Responsibility is a privilege.........you have been entrusted with a beautiful soul who loves you, who's loyal to you, who will never hurt you.

I think that sometimes we all need to remember this!!!!
