  5. I love the first picture. It reminds me of when Adam used to come home and take the baby out of her crib, put her on his chest and fall asleep. I loved that. He did it with all 4 girls. Enjoy it. I am so glad she is home.

  7. How many life changes can take place in one persons lifetime? Excluding adolescence and premarriage dating (sorry Dustin). For me having been married over 30 years and forfeiting her to walk with the Lord changed me instantaneously. I didn't Know what to do with myself. I didn't know what to think or what to do. I allowed circumstances to carry me downstream like a canoe up north in May.Now my daughter in Austin changed all that. I flew down with a one way ticket not knowing what to expect. What I found was someone who needed me someone I loved, Rayna & Karl. My time here has Shown me many things. Firstly I'm not the only one with tragedy in their life. Foremost I have learned how the Lord uses tragic events to bring us to a closer walk with Him. I learned how to trust in the Lord that all things work together for good. Thus another change took place in me. I have found a rock to stand on (the Lord) which has changed my perspective 180 degrees. My mind is much clearer and I have been setting goals again as was always my way. I want to thank Karl & Rayna for having me and I want to thank Brad, all of Karl's close friends (including Dustin). Also I wish to thank every member of Ridge church for being an integral part in my Christian restoration. Special thanks also to Steve & Amy & all your buddies for welcoming me with love prayers and open arms. It is no wonder I would like to move here for a more extended stay!
    Again thanks to to y'all (you know who you are and hope to see your face to face again soon.

    Love in Christ Wayne

  9. Such a sweet baby! I love picture #1 - we have similar pics with both of our babies ... Emmett lying on the couch with a baby on his chest (and sometimes our dog sprawled out on his legs). Comfort and security!

  11. P.S. I will finally be interning my wife's ashes at my mom, dad, and grand mom's cemetery plot.
    This I believe will bring much closure. As I believe is expected of me.
