Eleanor

For some time now I've been waiting for a reason to blog. In my previous blog my heart was broken by the sudden death of our dear friend Aimee Powell. Blogging hasn't entered my mind since Aimee's passing. I honestly didn't know if I would ever have the desire to express my feelings in this venue again. Until now ..... In the Lord's sovereign plan He sent Eleanor to fill the void that I had been feeling. Eleanor is the daughter of my son and his wife. At just the right time, she came into our lives to bring us healing and to restore the joy into our shattered lives. Eleanor's arrival date was to be on March 20Th, but I don't believe our hearts could have waited until then so she came just at the right moment when I needed her the most. Eleanor arrived on February 6Th to set right all that had been undone when Aimee left for her heavenly home. Thank you Carly and Corry for giving us such a wonderful blessing in Ellie. Thank you Lord for once again allowing me to hope and understand that you are indeed in control of all and that you love us more then we can presently understand.

Hey, I'm thinking a new picture of Grandpa and Ellie needs to be on the list to things to do at the reunion. I'll volunteer to be the photographer!! xoxo
