We are hit with a wave of emotions as we...
look through photographs
sort through memories
laughter
tears
heartache
love
it seems
unbearable
unimaginable
how you could
be gone this quickly
but then...
GRACE SHOWS UP
in
your eyes
your smile
reminding us how to look at the world
the beauty and grace
found inside of both the
sunrise and sunset

Praying God's strength and comfort
protect and cover Chanea and Shara
as we remember
their mother Jacquie...

These ladies started an annual
Mother's Day tradition...
pack a bag, catch a flight, and get
away for a "girls only" weekend!

looking back we see
San Diego
New York
New Orleans
each provided
opportunities to learn
history
culture
tradition
while creating our
own beautiful memories
(this year's plan was Atlanta)
but...
God had a different plan
