In light of eternity, our lives appear as brief moments. Yet we cannot comprehend the loving care God has for every single second of these lives. My hope is to give you a window into His love, joy and strength found in our ordinary days.

Over the River And Through the Woods...

One of the wonderful parts of moving to Columbus is that we live closer to my grandma.
 Yesterday, we made the trip for a day's visit.  We managed to avoid the rain both coming and going too!
 Blake was turning the tables on a word game she likes to play.  As she names and taps each part of your face she'll say "forehead bumper, eye twinker, eye blinker, nose smeller, mouth eater, chin chomper and....a GOBBLE, GOBBLE, GOBBLE!"
 After the "gobbling," which involves a good bit of tickling. :)
 I really need to get this on video next time.  He loves to "preach" to Grandma and Charles.  They must make a great congregation because he does it every time we visit.
 So, I guess this was an illustrated sermon.  They had these palm branches from their service on Sunday laying around.  He was showing them how the people said "Hosanna!"
 Grandma asked him if she could testify.  While she was talking he leaned in to listen and then let out the longest, loudest, stinkiest toot he has yet to produce.  At that point we all lost it and could not stop laughing.  He kept saying, "Guys!  Calm down.  It's not that funny."
For as long as I can remember, Grandma has stood in the doorway as we drive away and motioned "I Love You."  She still does it to this day, and I just had to capture it.  I am so blessed!
