Letter to My Children (May 27, 2018)

Dear Jonathan and Carly, Jackson, Madeline & Baby,
Dear Sarah and Taylor, Penny Rose and Weston,
Dear Joshua and Olivia,
Dear Christina,

     I love you all. I prayed for you on my way and all through church. Pastor Marty gave a brave and strong sermon on redemption through Christ. It is Memorial weekend, and you remember how we would visit the cemetery and share stories and poems of fallen military men and women. In Flanders Fields, my first memorized poem. Wished you were there to hear the sermon with us, and then go on our walk through the rows of flags.
     I believe you are all coming home to us any day now. The boys are fishing. Gretel is visiting old family friends across the lake. You are wanted and missed every moment.
