Today we are celebrating a wonderful life lived. My Grampa lived a life of generosity, always demonstrating true Christianity. His smile could light up a room. My best memory of him is the way his eyes lit up and smiled with his whole face! He lived such a pure example of Christ that I want to model my life after. Our family is SO blessed to have had this man as the cornerstone of our family! We can't wait for the day when Jesus will wake him up, but for now, as Emmaline so perfectly put it... Grampa is sleeping in Jesus' heart...
It's a bedtime tradition that began with Little Nutbrown Hare, and each night we try to outdo the last...I love you to the moon and back...to the beach and back...to the mountians...and one of my favorites, "to Jesus and the angels" and back...We never imagined we would be saying, I love you to Africa and back...it seems like the furthest imaginable place, but yet in God's perfect timing, we plan to go.... to Africa and back!!! And when we get back, we will have another little cheek to kiss goodnight...please keep us in your prayers and enjoy this journey with us!
