Happy 31st My Love!

My Baby and Big Kid turned 31 today! I know its hard for me to believe too! I still remeber the boy in the band all those years ago =) and Sept will be 9 years for us- 9 wonderful years. What a blessing to wake up to my best friend for this long- I pray for many, many more years.

Luke, you have blessed us so much by your love, tender care and sacrifice, your fam is so very grateful for you! May the coming year bring you much joy, and much grace as you journey on in life and godliness.
LOVE YOU SO!

Jeremiah 29:11
11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.


Thanks

For your prayers and the notes and emails from dear friends- the beautiful orange bouquet delivered to our hotel room- it all meant so very much and your prayers were answered. Sat the 25th was a day of grace anew. We started the day with choc milk and choc doughnuts. We watched home videos and the slide show the Lees made for us for Mikes memorial service. Then Luke led us in reading stories we loved to read to our dear boy and still love to read to the lil ones (I know Braet 7- but he's still my lil one!)- one of my favorites is from the Jesus Story Book Bible where Jesus clams the storm- (how many times does he calm the storm in me). And then we sang the favorite songs, prayed and cried. There were tears of sadness intermixed with tears of gladness. Sadness for the obvious reasons, we miss our Micah Man and our lives are forever changed- Gladness for our Micah is no longer in the anguish and pain that he knew many days of his little life, gladness that our lives our forever changed , and much gladness for our Saviour, Jesus Christ, that one day we will spend forever with our Saviour and with our boy; creating memories for eternity.
