bittersweet

may 27th. this day is never an easy one. four years ago-it's a day that will never leave me. the day my sweet daddy left this earth and entered eternity. i am so very thankful for the gift of eternal life. i am so thankful that my Father provided a way for me to meet my daddy again....that this life is not the end. praise God! i miss my dad SO much. i hide it a lot. i cry in secret. i bury the pain sometimes. i think so often "i wish dad was here seeing the boys do this. do that."
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the LORD. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts." Isaiah 55:8-9

i trust that. i believe that. and i am thankful for that. thank you, Jesus, for picking out the daddy you did. he was perfect FOR ME. he showed me how a man should treat me. he reminded me that he was given the gift of being my earthly dad, but my Father is in heaven. for this, i give thanks.



dad, you are always with me. i see you everyday in these 2 sweet boys i have. i love you, so much. i wish you could have seen your sweet first grandson graduate from kindergarten yesterday. you would have been so proud of him. (he inherited your singing skills by the way..thanks for that. :) ) i can still hear daniel bursting through your door yelling "gandad, gandad!" "Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal."

Daniel's wonderful teacher.

To my sweet Daniel,
Your daddy and I are so very proud of you. You are an amazing young man who loves the Lord, and I could not be more thankful for that. I make mistakes everyday in being your mommy. Thankfully, we have a Savior who covers my mistakes. Trust in Him always. He will never let you down. We love you so much!
Love, Your blessed Mom and Dad
