See You Again

"I know God won't give me anything I can't handle. I just wish he didn't trust me so much" - Mother Teresa

Isn't that the truth!

We kicked off the 30 days of Jackson on Sunday, and it is a smorgasbord of emotions and feelings (smorgasbord...what a great and fun word, I am going to have to use it more often). I am sure I will be able to write about it all one day, but I just can't right now. Tonight, I feel like a song and a few photos is the best possible summary of the last few days.

Thanks Mother Teresa for the quote, and lets thank Carrie Underwood for this new awesome single. I could not have heard it at a better time. It is a beautiful song. Here we go...

"See You Again"

Said goodbye, turned around
And you were gone, gone, gone
Faded into the setting sun,
Slipped away
But I won’t cry
Cause I know I’ll never be lonely
For you are the stars to me,
You are the light I follow

(Sunset on his 11 month day! Hello beautiful and perfect!)
 
[Chorus]
I’ll See you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
Till I see you again
I can hear those echoes in the wind at night
Calling me back in time
Back to you
In a place far away
Where the water meets the sky
The thought of it makes me smile
You are my tomorrow

(It was Sonday, and he was just riding shotgun with Mama!)
 
 [Chorus]
I’ll See you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
Till I see you again



[Bridge]
Sometimes I feel my heart is breaking
But I stay strong and I hold on cause I know
I’ll see you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, yeah yeah

(Gift from Jennifer! Awesome verse and lyric from a favorite band, Third Day, who originally started singing together at camp!)
 
[Outro]
I’ll See you again, oh
This is not where it ends
I will carry you with me, oh
Till I see you again
Till I see you again,
Till I see you again,
Said goodbye turned around
And you were gone, gone, gone.

(Sunshine and Footprints. And an insanely ruffly blouse! That is how we do it!)
 
We love you JND.

We will see you again. You are our tomorrow and the light that we follow.

Love,
Mom and Dad
