My Granny



I had a really good talk with my Granny last night. It was one of those talks I've been needing. She's really been on my mind a lot recently because her health hasn't been great these past few weeks. But she's doing much better and she just sounded so good and happy on the phone. She was so encouraging and supportive as I updated her on my life and all the big decisions we've been making. I guess it was something I just needed to hear because sometimes I get homesick being so far away from our families. Granny was just so encouraging about that, and it made me very emotional. It was really good to put that into perspective that my family is always there for me, but that Brandon is more than that. He's my home. What a blessing. She started telling me about her and my Gramps- how they were all each other needed. She told me about how they always said they could live in a shack and deal with anything in life as long as they had each other. They had such a good and healthy marriage and I always love hearing her talk about it. She always compliments Brandon and what a good husband I have, and I quite agree. I feel so blessed to have a husband who I know is always right beside me, no matter where God takes us in life. Thanks for making me cry, Granny.

We are so blessed. God has led us to exactly the right place.
"Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails."
Proverbs 19:21

Ok enough of my emotional rambling. That's all for now.
Except here's a funny YouTube video of a Little Girl Saying the Lord's Prayer my Granny told me about.
