I know time goes fast, but sometimes it just hits you harder than others. As I watched Tanner put on his Jr. High football uniform it struck me how grown up he is getting. We are watching Konnor last night and today and it's hard to believe almost 13 years has gone by since Tanner was that little. He is such a great kid and I am so blessed that God gave him to me. He and Jade are proof positive that God does not "make you pay" for your sins but loves us enough to bless us in spite of them.
God has been so good to me all my life. I am so greatful that Mom led me to Him early on. I miss her a lot. All of these milestone moments and special occasions, like Tanner's first game and Jade's "makeover" are the hardest, but God is seeing me through and giving me the strength to overcome the sadness. I had a dream the other night that she called me from Heaven and I was able to fill her in on all the things that have been happening here. Another gift from God.

I love how you put this: God does not "make you pay" for your sins but loves us enough to bless us in spite of them.

Oh Jen,
Time goes so very fast. I remember you when had just started school. Not very long ago it seems. God is Good! All the time! His blessings are new every morning!
Love you!
