This morning around 5 AM we all woke up from loud thunder and lightening. Lexi was snuggling with us with her hands covering her ears. She saw the lightening through our bathroom skylight and asked why the bathroom lights were going on and off. I told her it was God taking pictures. She said, "God really likes your bathroom. I bet he wants one just like it!" We snuggled and talked and eventually fell back to sleep together. I love Lexi's sleepy talk. Here's a picture I snapped of her yesterday. She was so tired from the Memorial Day weekend we had with Grandma Mike, The Lee's, The Hodges' and her first recital! We had a blast with it all!
Sometimes when life seems hard, sad, or stressful, I like to just stop for a moment and find something happy or peaceful. This evening, Lexi and I were driving home and we noticed the beautiful sunset. I stopped so we could take a picture on my phone. When I look at the sky and it looks like this, it makes me think of the loved ones we have lost and are now in Heaven. Instead of feeling sadness, I feel comfort they are in their forever home in the arms of Jesus. I'm thankful to have to ability to remember and the faith to feel comfort. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
