It's Already One Month


   Hey ya'll,

        As the title of this entry says, it's already one month. Today is one month that my Dad was killed. And tomorrow will be one month that we found out that he was killed. It's still really hard to believe that he is really gone. But it helps to know that he is in better hands right now. There is three songs on the radio that has been playing a lot. It's almost like each time one of us turns on the radio, it's playing. :) One of them is "In Better Hands" by: Natalie Grant. I think it is now my favorite song. It's just so true! Every word of it!

    Yesterday, we went to on neighboring town to get some more vegetable plants for our garden. I don't know how it came about but Mom told the lady who owned the place about what happened to Dad and when Mom was asking her how much all the plants were going to cost, she said nothing. She gave all the plants to us!!! And we had gotten over 130 different plants! And she gave them all to us! After we loaded all the plants into the van, Mom asked the lady if she would mind if we prayed with her and the lady said no, she wouldn't mind. So, we were really blessed yesterday! God has really been taking care of us. We have had two houses offered to us, rent free along with a lot of other things that would take a while to list. And now, all these vegetable plants! It's totally a God thing! :) So, we'll be working in the garden a lot more this summer. Making sure the garden stays weed free. :) Sort of like dedicating this garden in memory of Dad. :) I'm really hoping we can work in it today. :)
    Well, That's all I have to write about this time. :) I hope ya'll have a wonderfully blessed day and please make sure ya'll tell ya'll Dads that ya love him 'cuz you never know when will be the next time ya see him.

                       lots of love,
 
                            Jordan Lee

Hi Jordan,
I lost track of time, and had quite frogotten it has already been a month. I still find it hard to believe, maybe I keep thinking you and Sarah will tell me, in the excited way you used to, that your dad is home for the weekend again. Then I remember.
I am still praying for you all, everyday. And I am so amazed at God's blessings to you, only He could do something like that!

Hey, I can't believe that it has been a month already either. It seems like we just found out and then again, it seems like an eternity already. I wish I could be with ya'll today and Sunday, I know it'll be hard for all of us, I just wish Sunday would come and go so they would stop playing those commercials already. I love you!

Yes, I do love my daddy a lot. Sometimes I don't like him very much, but I wouldn't trade him for all the dads in the world.

That is a God thing. That's amazing how many plats you got! That should be a beautifuo garden you have this summer. Take good care of it and enjoy the fruit of your labor. :D

How very much we would miss Gary if he wasn't here with us! He keeps us all laughing...and thinking. He always points us to eternity, encouraging his family to "Meet me in Heaven." How short our lives are here, even if we live to be 100. You will never NOT miss your daddy...until you're in heaven with him.
Until then, know for sure that God is watching out for you and is always there to comfort your tears.

Wow, that is neat that you were able to get those plants for free! Do you guys garden a lot? Or is it a venting thing? I know sometimes I do things that I usually don't do when I feel badly.

Hi Jordan ~ I'm glad to hear that you're doing okay. 130 plants for your garden - that is awesome!! What a blessing. Sadly we haven't had much time for gardening yet this year, but I hope to get some work done in it soon.

I'm having a contest on my blog this week. Come on over and check it out!

Blessings,
Amanda

Hey girl,
Wow, what a huge blessing! All those plants free, and then to get to pray with the lady too. Our God is such an awesome and loving God, and He is definitely taking care of y'all.
So are y'all going to be moving to another house? Just wondering, since you said you had been offered a couple.
Love and hugs,
Ashley

Praying...
Posted by xxPATRIOTICxx at 6:54 AM
Hello, dear. I just wanted to let you know that I am praying for you. I do NOT know what you are going through so I'm not going to say that. But please know that I cannot imagine losing my own father and you must really struggle with that sometimes. But you do know that he is in Heaven with his Heavenly Father and someday you will see him again.

Yes, I do quite a few agility shows. I go to as many as I can; me and Madison love doing it, it is Maddy's favorite thing to do really. She gets to run and jump and get some of that extra Border Collie energy out of her.

My mom doesn't really like it either. But I don't really like any of her music anyway... she doesn't like any kind of rock at all. =p
