Tara, I am so sorry that I won't be able to make it on Saturday. Gordon is planning on being there, and my folks are hoping to come. We are praying for comfort and wisdom for all of you. I will try to order something through Pampered Chef.

Hi Tara! Thanks for your note on my blog. I am so sorry to see that your dad has passed away.

We live in Mt Airy, MD, which is about 30 minutes west of Baltimore. Jeff grew up near Buffalo and I grew up in eastern PA but our hearts are in Michigan, where we lived for 10 years before moving here. We miss it very much.

Would love for you to keep reading my blog. May God bless you with a very special peace during this difficult time.

Tara, we can't join you for your celebration, but I will be faithful in praying for you.

It is okay that your Dad worried about your Mom being taken care of. God gave men that protecting instinct, so it's only natural that he was concerned.

Your faith is an honor to your Dad. Our Daddys taught us to trust them as earthly Daddys so that we could easily learn to trust our Heavenly Father. Your life is a reflection of that, so be proud of your Dad!

Enjoy your family while you are there. Your Daddy is out of pain and basking in our Savior's love. So hold little Scarletta and let your friends and family bless you through this time.

Love in Christ,
Kathie
