For those of you who know Dad, you should know that he is in his last days. After battling cancer for 10 years, we are drawing near to him finally being pain free. Obviously, this completely stinks for us but he is ready. I am at home today but am heading back to St. Louis tomorrow. Jayden is going to MeeMaw and Pop's and Josh has training for his new job in Kansas City this week.
I think that the hardest thing of all was when Jayden said good bye to his PeePaw Jerry. He doesn't know that it was the last time he would see PeePaw. He kissed him and said "Bye-bye my PeePaw Jerry. Love you." My heart breaks for him-PeePaw Jerry and Jayden are very special buddies.
I am so thankful that my Dad knows Christ and for all of the things that he has taught Jennilee and me. We are who we are because of his teaching.
I so admire him because he is so strong. Mom dying took so much out of him but he never neglected his girls-he held us extra close and finished raising us. I don't think that we could ever be ready to say good bye but here we are.
Please pray for all of us and especially for my little baby Jacob who is still growing inside me. I worry that the stress will hurt him but I know God has this covered.
