Making Memories

Life is precious and unexpected. We never know what the future may hold. We never know what may happen to us, and to those around us. Every day is a gift, and should be a memory. Memories never leave us, they are with us for every day that we spend on this earth. Loved ones and precious tokens may perish and leave us, but the memories of those things never leave. We should always be looking for opportunities to make a memory.

Last night was a memory making moment. Karissa, Destiny and I were at Grandpa and Grandma's, sitting in their living room contentedly sipping organic hot chocolate and looking through thier wedding album, listening to all the details and the story of their lives. Grandma sure had a nice wedding and it was so much fun hearing about it. We learned stories we had never heard before, we loved learning stuff from Grandma.

It was indeed a memory making moment. Every know and again we need to remember to make a memory!

Thank you Kaila. It made wonderful memories for me also. I am so blessed by my grandchildren. We need to do it more often. God is so gracious to us and you are right, nothing can take our memories away. They remain in our hearts.
