Happy Birthday Young Lady!!! :)
Oh wow! The best celebration on earth couldn't come close to your celebration in Heaven! Jesus has rescued you!! So much is going on, some of which you would consider joy and others, not so much!!
Ali (27 weeks now) and I decided to go for a walk yesterday. She wanted to walk to Hwy 98; 1.5 miles, at the intersection they've recently opened up an ice cream shop---Oh Mom, this is such a "you" story!! As we were approaching the ice cream shop, Ali asked if I had been there and I said "no, but had I brought cash or card, we could get ourselves a treat"! About that same time, Christopher called. We told him our thoughts of a yummy ice cream treat and he said that he was near us and would meet us there and pay our reward! So, he met us at the shop, Ali ordered a 2-scoop cup and I a one-scoop cone. We decided that we didn't need to cheat ourselves out of our exercise, so with our ice cream in hand, we walked the 1.5 mi. back home!! :) Enjoying every bite of that yummy treat!
So, granddaughter is named Baby Sailor Rebecca!! I have had a couple of dreams of her but can't seem to capture any specific features other than chubby cheeks. Mom, you should see Christopher-God is really softening his heart. Just like scripture, "I will remove your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh". He is going to make a great father! You would be so proud!! Seth and Giana are so strong and so together. He misses you! Seth is still a breath of fresh air. I am so thankful for my family! I miss you and it's weird, a part of me wishes you were here and another is thankful you're not in this madness. Again, no joy on this earth and come close to Heaven--I can only imagine! Thank you Mother--thank you for your gentleness, your heart, your love. I often think of how you would just sit in quiet and seemingly get lost in your thoughts. I wonder what you were pondering, but sometimes, I think I know. I love you so, so much and I still wish Heaven had a phone. You wouldn't believe how God has ministered to my heart through a puppy!! I truly believe God used a little rescued puppy to give me some lessons on love, spirit, grief, loss and Heaven through Izzy! I love you Mom and I still miss ya!! Mom, you had attributes that I can't seem to grasp--kindness and forgiveness, especially. Such a sweet and tender lady! Happy, Happy Birthday Mother!!
