Heaven is Celebrating Today…..Lila Rae’s Heavenly Birthday

 

I've lost my baby daughter,
Though not misplaced.
I feel she's somewhere
Bound by neither time nor space. 

Perhaps she sits before the Throne
With radiant face.
She could be dancing happily
Like little girls do
With golden taps beneath
Each precious little shoe.

I know she must love music,
So I'm sure it's true.
I'm grateful that in Heaven
She is healthy and strong
And that she's lulled to sleep each night
By Heaven's song,
But I wish I could hold her;
Is that terribly wrong?

I sang so often to her
While she was with me
And I will go on listening
For her harmony.

How sweet to know
I'll hear it In eternity.

Missing you today and everyday my sweet baby girl.  But we keep our pink balloon in sight, reminding us your presence is always soaring near.

Love you so much,

Mommy

GA Farm Bureau District 10 Annual Meeting

 

Cory and I represent our county as the Young Farmer Chairs, and a few weeks ago were honored as the Outstanding Young Farmer Committee for our district.  We feel very privileged to represent our county and our district at the state level.

So just to catch you up….….when our warehouse burned back in May so did all of our awards we received last year for the Georgia Young Farmer Achievement Award. 

Well………while we’re standing there on stage the MC (Mauldin) proceeds to explain this incident to everyone.  Cory and I have no idea what is going on.  Next thing ya know……they are presenting us with our district and State awards from last year………they had replaced them for us!  I couldn’t believe it…..I was in TEARS.  The award is very special to us…..we have worked really hard for our business, and the award’s recognition of that makes it dear to our hearts.  I had mentioned to someone about getting them replaced….months ago…..but forgot.  Its one of those things we wanted to do but never got around to it.  We felt feel so honored and thankful for those who went ABOVE and BEYOND their jobs. 

Thanks David, Andy, and all those who had a part in this.  We are so thankful for you and all you do for our family, business, and Farm Bureau. 

God is good……ALL the time,
