Playing with the QuickCam

I realized last night that my average is one post a month and my month is almost up! Friday is my day off, HURRAY, and so we thought we would play around with the computer at Grandma's house. We had a great time, until they started climbing all over me and pulling my hair. Now they are watching PBS. Thank goodness for a little TV time.

Funeral

My dear dad passed away on January the 16th. We all miss him dealry but are happy that he is happy now and is pain free. I feel grateful to have had 28 years with him. I hope that my children will be able to get a glimpse of what he stood for and what a wonderful man he was.

Nothing captures them better than this picture right here!

I decided it was time for me to finally start our blog. As my friend last night said, it is her way of keeping a journal. I liked that idea since I write in my once a year.

Last night when Cameron was praying he said "....and when this Santa dies will you please give us another nice Santa ..." I thought it was thoughtful, in a four year old sort of way. Though no one is really talking about it, he knows that Grandpa will die and he is trying to process the situation. At this time I am so grateful for the gifts that we have been given including knowledge of the eternal nature of all things. With that, I too hope that when Santa dies in the minds of my children he will be replaced by One who gives even more gifts then him, One who gives the gift of eternal life.
