A blessing


So last weekend my husband and I were able to get away for my 30 year class reunion.  It was so what we needed, a good distraction.  I love spending time with my husband, he is my best friend.

On our way home on Sunday we were both so tired, we did a little bit of talking but honestly we were just enjoying each others company.  We were stopping just a few miles out of Spokane to get gas, it was so hot.  As we pulled up to wait our turn at the pump I looked out the window and saw my husbands Great Grandparents.  The most interesting thing is they had missed their turn off and just happened to be there.   Oh my gosh, it was such a God wink!

These lovely people have made me feel from the beginning that they are my Great Grandparents.  Over the years I have had some of the most beautiful conversations with them.  When ever we talk about our kids they want to know everything and how to pray for each of them.  That is what I cherish the most and this time was no different.  In short we shared what has been going on with our youngest.  Afterwards we stood in the parking lot and prayed for her.  I can't tell you how light I felt at that moment, that despite everything we were seeing that it was all going to be okay.  I felt like I was walking on sunshine!

I hope I am patterning myself after them as a Grandparent!
