Only in so doing have I been able to get through certain things. One of them was the death of my dad. I remember his final days and relate very well to what you describe for your stepdad. We were so grateful for what seemed like a limited amount of pain. In addition, I will forever be grateful that I got to see the last look in his eyes. It's a testimony that I will never forget. (Sorry... rambling) <br /><br />I think it's so sweet that your Tella wants a cloak too. Now, you knew that was going to happen, didn't you? I love children. Period. <br /><br />Sam's smiling swing pic is precious!Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05671482394424988047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7906989179238604361.post-35789012333141510612012-06-08T18:20:13.649-07:002012-06-08T18:20:13.649-07:00Well it's a good thing you both didn't hav...Well it's a good thing you both didn't have the test scheduled for the same day!

And, you are right, the trail is not a blessings but the strength we gain and the lessons we learn through the trails.
