Save a Place For Me...

Gramps...
I am so glad that you got to meet Lauren this past weekend! I could tell that she could feel your presence, for someone who never stops moving and jabbering, she just sat still and stared. I know that you would absolutely love her...she is SO full of life and zest and has just the silliest humor. I can imagine her tailing behind you on the way to the park, fishing pole in tow and playing the leg trap game.

We miss you but know that you are saving a place for us up in Heaven.


Save a Place For Me: Matthew West

Don't be mad if I cry
It just hurts so bad sometimes
'Cause everyday it's sinking in
And I have to say goodbye all over again
You know I bet it feels good to have the weight of this world off your shoulders now
I'm dreaming of the day when I'm finally there with you

Save a place for me
Save a place for me
I'll be there soon
I'll be there soon
Save a place for me
Save some grace for me
I'll be there soon
I'll be there soon

I have asked the question why
But I guess the answer's for another time
So instead I'll pray with every tear
And be thankful for the time I had you here
And I wanna live my life just like you did
Make the most of my time just like you did
And I wanna make my home up in the sky
Just like you did
Oh, but until I get there
Until I get there

What a wonderful post Jamie. It was good that Lauren got to make that visit, I just so wish that she could have meet him in person here on Earth. He would have really loved playing with all of his great-grandkids!

What a wonderful post! I'm bawling! I hope you enjoyed your short visit. I wish I could've seen you but it was the same day as my bro's graduation!
