OUR FAMILY THOUGHT FOR TODAY!

“Your children are the greatest gift God will give to you, and their souls the heaviest responsibility He will place in your hands. Take time with them, teach them to have faith in God. Be a person in whom they can have faith. When you are old, nothing else you’ve done will have mattered as much.”
 ― Lisa Wingate

I am so grateful to God for the awesome responsibility of being the father of my 2 children. Thank you God for my 2 gifts. There is nothing greater.

OUR FAMILY THOUGHT FOR TODAY!

“And like that, I said goodbye to my grandmother like we were two people who met in a coffee shop, shared a lifetime of stories and left wanting more, but knowing we’d meet there again.”
― Darnell Lamont Walker

April 23 is my Gram’s birthday. I went to the cemetery and took flowers to her, as I do every year. I went to the other side of the area and placed flowers on her older sister’s grave as well. My Gram raised me and her sister helped out tremendously. They continue to be a rudder and compass for me each and every day as I navigate this vast ocean called life. I miss them terribly and not a day goes by that I don’t think of them.

Happy Birthday Gram. I love you and Aunt Nell so much.

OUR FAMILY THOUGHT FOR TODAY

“It is not flesh and blood but the heart which makes us fathers and sons.” ~Johann Schilleris

Thank you Uncle William and Uncle Robert for making this statement ever so true in my life.

Take a moment, listen to one of my favorite songs, and comment if you know what this quote is all about in your own life. I sure do!

To my uncles, who were actually my fathers,………….RIP Uncle Robert and Uncle William!

I miss these heroes of mine every single day.
