Miss Her!

Three years ago Friday my Mom left us to go to her new home. I've been thinking a lot about her lately and how much she is missed by all of us. A mom's love is like no other earthly love!

Today as I was mopping the floor, thinking about my Mom and what a special person she was, this song came on my Pandora mix station. It's a country song (yes, sometimes I like to listen to country music)....and it almost felt like my Mom was speaking it to me (even though the song isn't really a mother talking to a daughter). Here are a few of the lyrics.

Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near, I wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year and there's some folks we know
They say, "Hello, I miss you so, wish you were here"

The weather's nice, in paradise
It's summertime all year and all the folks we know
They say, "Hello, I miss you so, wish you were here"
Wish you were here

Song by Mark Wills


Sunset on the Oregon coast....reminds me that God's ways are perfect!

Oh this bring tears to my eyes, Colette. So sorry for the missing. What a beautiful song and thank you, Father for ministering to Colette in this way.
