This picture of my dad makes me smile. It makes me think of peace, joy, happiness, a lack of pain, freedom...all words I link with heaven, a place we will spend for all eternity.
I find peace knowing that he's not dead. In fact, he is more alive than us. And one day we will be alive together. What a day that will be!
I miss my dad. I remember him well, especially his smell in the morning. I am forever grateful that my memories of him- sitting on his lap, propped up on his shoulders, holding hands, wiping tears, mickey mouse pancakes, love notes, laughing, smiling, playing- have only enhanced my understanding of God the Father.
Today I'm signing off with a smiling heart and this quote:
You can kiss your family and friends good-bye and put miles between you, but at the same time you carry them with you in your heart, your mind, your stomach, because you do not just live in a world but a world lives in you.
-Frederick Buechner
I miss him too, Baby Girl. I sure do.
ReplyDeleteLove you.
Kaylyn, your Momma said that my baby might be walking with your Dad today, and I find comfort in that, comfort knowing they are both praising God in His presence. What a day today has been.
