When did I grow up? I'm pretty sure that I still think I'm like 20 something. Until I look in the mirror. Or wake up with an ache. Or somebody that must be not much younger than me says "Mrs. Heather" or "yes ma'am." Maybe it's because in my 40s (41 to be exact), I'm …

I received a message.. "Do you remember what Daddy said for Grace?" MY mind started reeling. Repeating it over in my head.. Again and again. Was it this? Wait, was it that? Then I finally got it. As close as we can remember. He's in heaven now. We are left with memories. …

I've found that with grief comes moodiness. Some days I'm more irritable than others. Some parts of the day I'm "ok" and at other moments I'm not. Not many people see those sides of my grief. Or if they do, I don't even realize it. Truth is, I don't know when the low moments will …

Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints. (Psalm 116:15 ESV) When I knew my Daddy was definitely dying, (I believe he had coded 2 or 3 times by this point) as we all surrounded him in the hospital, I sang "Jesus Loves Me" and "Zippity Doo Dah" in his …

For those who knew our Daddy.. For those who didn't.. Below is WHO HE WAS and a little of what we (his children) wanted to share about him. How do we even put into words, the depth of love we have for a man that modeled unconditional love and was the picture of love? We …
