Something I need to remember

25."Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26.Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27.Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life ? 28."And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29.Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30.If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31.So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' 32.For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33.But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34.Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Always Missing Her

My Granny, Margret Duggin, died in April of 2005. This is 18 months before Jonas was born. Tuesday night Jonas and i were watching the News (yeah, my son likes to watch the news, wierd i know) and he looks at me and says, "Mommy, Why can't i see Granny?" I said "honey, because she's in Heaven with God. Honey do you know who Granny is?" he said, "Yes, She is Nana's Mommy, but i want to talk to her, can we call her?" I said "no, we can't call her but how do you talk to God?" he said "Pray" i said "okay, why don't you pray to God about Granny, and then maybe she will hear you?" he thought about that for a min and said "okay" he was quiet for a little while and then wanted to ask me more questions about Granny.
This is a moment i hope i remember for ever! I was so sad during my pregnancy knowing that my son would never meet Granny, but now i know it doesn't matter. because I knew her.
