For This We Have Prayed

About 5 years ago sitting in our living room

Lane (Son in love) asked Maranda (daughter) to marry him!

And yes, we had prayed for this for years!!!!!

Then her Dad walked her down the isle

and cried the whole way down.

 

And then they were one.

 

Fast forward 4 years......... to yesterday.

 

We met Maranda & Lane at Ihop to eat a late breakfast.

Not anything special or so we thought.

She handed us this card and Sweet Hunter realized what it was before

I did. He immediately got up and hugged them both when it all sunk in to me.

"Sweet Hunter" always prays before our food but asked 

Lane to because he was too emotional.

After the prayer, he started balling.

When he cries, I cry.

You see, we all still have this lady, "Grandmother", my "Mother in love",
"Sweet Hunters Mother" on our minds.
She just passed away at our home on January 9.
Maranda and Grandmother are very close.
When Maranda was born, Grandmother looked at her
through the glass and Maranda lifted her head and turned it
right to Grandmother. Now to add more to this sweet story....
3 weeks before Maranda was born, Grandmother lost her daughter, Donna.
She died in her sleep. She was only 20 years old.
So Maranda was a gift from God and we all know it.
Maranda is Grandmothers Donna.
The whole family knows it.
So now you know why yesterday was so special.
Grandmothers baby (our daughter, Maranda) is having a baby!
And we found this out about 3 weeks after Grandmother passed away.
How special is that?

 

 

 

For this We Have Prayed!
Congratulations Maranda & Lane!!!!
