Celebrating a life well lived and a lasting legacy
My maternal grandfather was a good, and godly, and giving, man. Every year on his birthday, I love to gather the family and give thanks to the Lord for his life. I always think of the verse that says "a good man leaves and inheritance to his children's children" - yes, that was my grandpa Garrett.

Sitting and soaking in the Sonshine
While recovering from surgery two years ago, Victoria helped me to a cozy chair and she sat with me flanking the other side of our big open fireplace. The flame crackled between us as I cuddled my favorite blanket. I remember just looking at Victoria and drinking in the fact that we were just sitting there together. She must've felt my motherly gaze because she looked up and smiled back. The marvel of the Lord's timing in moving her home two days before my surgery...I couldn't have planned it ...
