Proud To Be An American

My three year old informed me while we were out walking last weekend that they take turns with "the United States of America flag" at school . I wasn't sure what he was meaning but I didn't press it. When we got home he broke out with the Pledge of Allegiance. Not sure what you think but I was rather impressed.

Life is too short


It's weird the way life works out. My dad just retired after 36 years and couldn't wait to begin spending some time with his mom. We took her with us to the mountains two weeks ago. Braxton had tea parties with his G.G. We went and got ice cream. We took her shopping. And we took naps. The last morning we were there we couldn't get her awake and had to call the paramedics. So for the past week we've been at the hospital everyday praying and hoping that she'd wake up. After being told on Friday that she'd had a major stroke, we called my brother home and after he made it we all gathered around her bed and prayed for her to make the journey to a better place.
She went to Heaven Monday.
We took a picture of this lilly from our yard. We received it one Easter and it's never bloomed before. It reminded me of my Grandmother. Beautiful.
