My dad is smiling!

Laura, Mark and family took the kids to play golf on Friday. Laura sent me this picture and I immediately smiled and then cried (if that makes sense?) It made me smile because I love that Paige is still able to play the game that she soooo loved to play with my dad. It made me cry because I am sad she isn't able to play with him anymore. I am so grateful for LaLa and family for treating our little angel like she is one of their own and loving her and us.

I know my dad is smiling down from the Heavens and is beaming with pride at his 'lil peanut'. He loved her like no other. She was soooo blessed to have him, even if for a short while.

LOVE this photo of your little golfer. Isn't it such a wonderful blessing to have friends who pick up those pieces of your life that would have otherwise been blank. Yes, I just bet your dad is smiling!

My husband misses playing with his dad, too. (((((hugs))))) But he's smiling. And it looks like Paige was, too... when she wasn't concentrating.

Your dad's beaming with pride and telling all his heaven friends all about you guys.

Mark's been golfing his little heart out these last couple of weeks. They would have fun together.

Oh, he is smiling for sure. Paige looks like a natural. I have loved getting caught up on your summer. Sorry to hear about your SUV fire, but so glad that you weren't in it!! Love all the pics of your sassy girl in her dance attire. :)

Hugs,
Michelle
