Where The Path Will Lead Us


Last weekend while walking in the timber with my son and twin grandchildren I was enjoying the view of them as they walked in front of me and my husband. Every little thing brought wonder to their eyes, finding treasures to take back home.

I get so much joy watching them, it warms my heart to see how much they love their daddy, spending time with him as he shares his life stories with them. I love telling them stories of their daddy as he was growing up also, a lot of my stories are the funny things daddy did when he was their age.

Just like the path we were on, we didn't know what was ahead. Life is like that, we never know what lies ahead. We just trusted it would take us where we wanted to go. I don't want to see my grandchildren grow up so fast, but they do so I wonder what things they will experience in their life and I pray that I make a difference for them. I hope they want to know their heritage and what their ancestors were like. I loved hearing about my ancestors from my parents, looking at old pictures and wondering what kind of person they were and if I am anything like they were.

So as they grow up I look forward to hearing their stories of their lives from day to day. Soon they will be all grown up with lives of their own but I pray they have fond memories of all their family members.
