It was Daddy's Birthday!

My father's birthday was on the 23rd of this month! It's hard to believe that he has been gone for 9 years already! He would have been 89. I think about him every day. I came across an article recently that I wrote when I was at his funeral in Sandersville, GA. If you are interested, you can read it here. Papa was a very special man and he always wanted to leave his children a legacy. I think he meant a monetary legacy but instead he left us so much more than that. We are all very proud of the "Old Time Preacher Man" and always enjoyed laughing at his stories (and quite often at him!) Everyday, I smile or actually laugh out loud at some memory that pops up in my mind. Papa left us with a legacy of loving the Lord and a longing to meet him on the "Hallelujah Side". I hope I can leave some of that behind for my children, too.
