its not goodbye...

today they laid to rest the earthly remains that my dad used while he was here...
his soul went on when he passed...
the arms that hugged me and picked me up when I fell...
the grin that always held mischief...
the eyes that danced with laughter long before it curved his lips...
the chest he laid me on when I first arrived...
is now under ground...
by the spirit that made all those parts work went on...
and it will never fade...
and its not goodbye...
its...
until we meet again...
love you, daddy...
you are my hero with wings...

dad, through the years...








scanned these today to list on my fb page...
I started one for all of my cousins to share news and photos...
been working outside today...
cleaning out the car and truck...
the deck...
around the deck and shed...
still have a little bit of standing water, but the most of it has gone down...
still too muddy to play in the dirt...
and then we just got 3 baby kittens in, at least a month old...
they have their teeth and mom deserted them...
so they are just hungry...
fed and stimulated them and they are napping...
they are so cute...
photos tomorrow...

have a good evening...
;)

Happy Birthday, Dad...

he would have been 78 today...
the funeral is going to be Monday afternoon...
and we will not be trying to go...
just too far for me...
but that's ok, because we talked about it long ago...
we will meet up later...
;)

my dad is in the arms of Christ...

God called my dad home this morning...

and I know he is busy hugging Christ with all he has in him...

he was so tired and weary...
this life was so hard at the end...

but he is laughing and smiling and dancing around now...
something he hasn't been able to do for so long...
he is happy now...

I am so grateful that God took him out of here and out of that body he was trapped in...
its been way too long and far too much...
but please pray for my step mom with all you have in you...
she is having a hard time letting go...
he was her world and she took such good care of him...
and she loved him so...

thank you all for all your prayers for my dad through all of his illnesses and trips to the hospitals...
its easy letting him go when all he had was suffering here...
and I will see him again...
soon enough...
he's is such a lovely place with his parents, brothers, grandparents, aunts, uncles...
and my sister...
there are so many that love him on the other side...
join me in rejoicing his homecoming...
another preacher called home!
can I get an amen?
;)
