The Dichotomy

Five years ago today, our beautiful daughter was born. One year ago today, my grandfather passed away. And so October 19th comes with mixed emotions.

Fortunately, I find the happiness outweighing the sadness, and I know my grandfather would want it that way. He was a pastor. I saw him memorialize his own loved ones, and he always said their lives should be remembered in celebration. His own should be no different.

Sarah, I love you and am enjoying watching you grow.

Granddaddy, I love you and am missing you.
