Remembering

This was the day for our "Sowers Picnic".
The family gathered at Forsyth Park on this beautiful Saturday. It was a warm summer day with a nice breeze. We couldn't have ask for a better day.
What a grand family we have.
We gathered together.
There were aunts and uncles.
There cousins and great cousins.
There were sons and grandsons.
There were daughters and granddaughters.
There were brothers and sisters.
There was me and Dohe.
And then.....there was Mom.

Not much was said of the one that was not there.

Although...there was an extra hug or two
and I may have seen a tear
and there was "how are You"
and there were thoughts of him.

Really not much was said of the one that was not there.

The one who was the oldest brother, who was not there
The one who was the grandfather, who was not there.
The one who was the husband, who was not there.
The one who was my father, who was not there.

Really not much was said of the one who was not there.

But that is alright....
because we know where he is.
We know he is surrounded by love.
We know he is in Glory.
We know and we are at peace.



I remember you today, Daddy.
