Home Going....

Three weeks ago my sweet grandad went to be with his heavenly father. We all knew his time was close, so we spent as much time with him in the weeks prior as we could. I am so thankful for all the time that we were given, the Lord could have taken him so many times, but kept him here. My Da's only motivation for fighting to live was for his grandchildren and wife, that's what he told me during one of our many conversations. The day that he went to be with the Lord was extremely emotional, we had a lot of visitors coming in and out of my grandparents home. We had a time of worship, we prayed, my brother played guitar, and my cousin sang him a beautiful song. The most surreal moment was during our time of worship, my brother leaned over to me and said, "isn't it crazy to think there are angels in this room." I had been thinking the same exact thing a few minutes before he had said anything.

I miss my Da so much...I miss his playfulness, his big hugs and kisses, his gifts.. :) I could go on and on. He means so much to our family and we will miss him so much, but I know he is in better hands. Please be praying for my precious Granny, for strength and much understanding.

I love you Da! :)
