Why Life Goes on for Me

Ever have one of those months where you just feel nothing goes right? You never do anything right? Who loves you? Are you of value to anybody? Why am I here? For some reason, March was one of those months for me. But, here are the "things" that keep me out of the darkness and into the light of the world.

Emma asked me why I was taking a picture of the back of her shirt. This scripture is why.
"The night is far spent, the day is at hand; let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us...Put on the Armour of Light" ..Romans 13:12
And then come the sweet moments like these:

Emma, Isabella, and Hatcher

Look out Uncle Chad, I'm going to get you...

...I told you I would

Hayes is one of the best big cousins, older cousins...Chunky thighs that are the cutest in the world..

Two little cousins who love each other,
and a little girl who has the snazziest boots!

Little boys who play like the big baseball guys

A mom who loves her little girl, and they
both ponder about things of this beautiful world.

Drake, who thinks time out can be funny
sometimes especially when you are in
between two chain linked fences!!
Syd, who has a smile that can brighten any day
The sunshine
Mark, the slugger
Two little boys who love to play in the dirt...
...and eat crackers just like little boys do with
sand all over their hands.
Those eyes, and the crackle of an empty water
bottle that is music to my ears.
And a goofy Braydon that always makes me laugh

Hayes, who loves to use his talents (and
lets his grandma take blurry pictures)....
...and plays the part of the Mad Hatter in Alice
in Wonderland and who looks great in his costume...
...and ponders the thought, "Do I
look like my dad on stage?"
Innocent children smiles from a Heavenly
Father who loves us.

A great cousin named Hayes who
is Braydon's hero...

..and fixes his cousin's hatA family who comes out to support the star
and can just sit and smile and laugh...

...and let's us all be a little crazy...

...and even takes pictures even though
Grandma looks like the good year blimp in green ...The three musketeers (Marshall, Kyle and
Eric) who know who the next two blue
musketeers are going to be in August and November
A great pair of glasses with a great smile,
a yellow baseball cap with a great smile,
and a batman insignia with a great smile...
An Aunt, named Holli, who Isabella loves
and adores.
Three generations of love...
And one of greatest blessings ever in my life...

...a little boy named Kyle whose smile lights
up my world and makes the darkness go away.
