Strangest Thing

Kate, Aaron, and I visited Gracie's grave today to be with her there on her birthday, and Aaron suddenly said, "Dad, look!" I looked at him, who was pointing to the sky. I looked up to this..



Two things crossed my mind.

1. Those people have to be freezing!
2. Thank you

Gracie wanted to fly in a hot air balloon one day. We told her once that, as a birthday present one year, we'd take her flying in one. We'll never have that opportunity. Seeing that fly off in the distance completely made my day. And that is just one of the reasons that I haven't any doubt that God and Heaven are extremely real.

Wow.....isn't that the most awesome God thing!! That gives me goosebumps. I know you are so precious to him that he would allow you to see such a thing on such a day. OK.....I'm going to go cry now.....Thank you for sharing!

Happy Belated Birthday in Heaven, Grace! And thank you, God, for sending that hot air balloon. It wasn't a coincidence that it was there at that moment.

I can't stop smiling...God is so good.
