This weekend my friend’s daughter and son-in-law brought me a gift from Canada.
When I read the words on the sign, my eyes filled with tears.
This may be my very favorite message sign ever………
When I think of Adrienne and Nick not being here, my heart can become very heavy.
But when I think of the joy they are experiencing in Heaven, I have a feeling of peace.
Reading this sign took my peace-filled thoughts to a whole new level!!
A little bit of Heaven in our broken homes?
YES!
That’s the gift we receive in our grief!
Who could ask for more!?!?
Thank you, Josh and Kate!
I love you…..even when you make me cry! 
Adrienne and Nick. I miss you both so much, but I’m thankful for the “peace” of Heaven you have given to our home.
In December of 2007 as our youngest son, Nick, was fighting brain cancer, I began to blog. Writing provided a way for me to release all of my questions, fears, and doubts. It also allowed me to share the ups and downs of Nick's journey with people who were praying for him all over the world. When Nick went Home in November of 2008, my blog became my way of searching for God in the midst of my deep heartache. My heart was broken and grief brought to the surface every emotion imaginable. Being able to release those emotions through my writing brought a sense of purpose to my pain. Having already walked the road of grief in 1992 when we lost our daughter to SIDS, I knew I needed a way to keep from falling into a pit of depression and despair. I had walked close to the edge of a bottomless pit when we lost our daughter,and I knew I couldn't let myself get that close to the edge again. This blog has been and continues to be my tiny corner of the world where I can share My Heart as I journey through God's Word.......thus the name........ My Heart His Words. Thank you for taking time to share life with me. If we do not meet while here on earth, I look forward to hearing all about your life when we reach our final destiny.........Heaven!

That is a beautiful thought. I wonder if I can find that plaque anywhere. If I can’t I am going to remember that thought though.
