twelve years

Today marks 12 years since I said my last goodbye to this man. Time passes much too quickly sometimes.



Today I remember Grandpa...summers spent at the lake, storytelling, sleepovers at Grandma & Granpa's, basketball and volleyball games, ice cream treats, hunting & target shooting, pigeons, German gibberish rhymes, popcorn nights & Dateline.
Today I remember a man who modelled a life of Faith for me, a life of obedience, of peacekeeping and gentleness.

Today I remember a man who I loved more than words could ever say.
