Self Portrait

Today Little Bitty and I said good bye to a very good man. 

Bob Johnson led a good life. He was a great husband, a good father and faithful servant. And he prayed for Alice Anne every day since the day she was born. 

At the funeral the pastor read a poem called The Dash. I'd never heard it before but I think it's brilliant.

And Uncle Bob had a dash he could be proud of. 

He spent his life as a firefighter and had a firefighters funeral. I've never been to a funeral for a firefighter before. It was so moving.


I'm thankful to celebrate the life a good man. I'm grateful he loved our girl even though they'd never met. And I'm thankful we'll meet again.

Until next time....
