"God’s command to be thankful is not the threatening demand of a tyrant. Rather, it is the invitation of a lifetime—the opportunity to draw near to Him at any moment of the day."
Nancy Leigh Demoss
...his last day of 4th grade...
...my view from here...
...the flowering dogwood at the end of our driveway...
...running without pain...
...cousins...
...brothers...
...his little eyes that "see"...Will screaming from the backseat "I see a rainbow!"
...following the "train tracks" on the beach with Will...
...time and help to get the camera out and shoot...
...Will watching the ocean in the distance...
...time to slow and read...
...battleship on the deck with my buddy...
...real conversations with my sister in law...
...running down the sand dunes with the boys...
...jumping for joy...
...drums at the beach house...
...Daddy and his boys...
...Duck Donuts...
...long days on the beach with family...
...watching him teach his younger brother how to boogie board...
...Joshua's smile after he blew his first bubble gum bubble (especially since Adam Jones is his favorite Oriole)
...an extended family bike ride...
...a boy and his diggers...
...how he takes a seashell and places it on the string of his shorts...
...singing loudly with the windows down and the van full of kids...
...watching them delight in God's creation...touching tuna!...
...date night (thanks Grandma, Pap and Uncle Brian and Aunt Lori for helping with the boys)...
...catching the beginning of a thunderstorm on the beach...
...running in the rain back to the car...
...going to the sound side to catch a glimpse of this sunset...
...watching him play...
...his contagious smile...
...the power and the beauty of the ocean...
...hearing Will say "this is such fun!"...
...sunset from the deck on the last night of vacation...
...down east clambake on the deck with family...
...dance party with the kids and cousins...
...overhearing Will (at bedtime) tell Wes "Happy Father's Day Dad. I love you!"...
