Where Would We Be?

I went to Walmart this morning to pick up a few things
when my daughter Mandy called and asked me if I
could come stay with the babies while she went to
help with funeral arrangements. I immediatly left
the store and headed down there.
 She lives about 30 minutes away.

After Mommy left "Little D" told me he was hungry.
He said his tummy growls all the time!
He wanted icecream! When I gave it to him, he looked up and said,
"I like it when Gigi keeps me, she gives me icecream!"
He so sweet!

He was showing me how he is going to play T Ball this year.
I can't believe he is big enough to play ball!
He also started telling me what happened to his uncle.
Broke my heart.
He said "Little Kenny got hurt really bad and hit his head and God took him to Heaven."
I love it that his Mommy and Daddy are raising him to know the Lord.

This little one slept most of the time I was there today,
but he sure was happy to see me when he woke up today.
What an honor to be able to help my daughter and son in law in their time of need.
I am so thankful that I am healthy and able to help my children.
The next couple of days will be hard for this little family but they will get through it.
Where would we be without our Lord?

Isn't it wonderful to be able to help out when they need you so badly. Yes, it will be hard for the families. One never knows God's plans for us.

You must remember how very important you are to your children . . . and their children. Where would they be without you?
