New photographer đź“·

Shecklet #1 was given some really nice photography equipment by his grandpa. The manual has already been read through once and he’s taken each accessory out and examined them. He has taken a real interest in video (thanks to helping out at our church) so this seems like a great complimentary activity for him.

All Saints Day

November is a month when we remember our loved ones who have died. Trusting in God’s goodness, we believe our little girl is a saint in heaven and is waiting and praying for us until we can meet her again one day.

There’s a saying I’ve seen on the internet that has brought me comfort when I find myself missing Astrid.

“…and to think, the first thing she saw when her little eyes opened was the face of Jesus.” đź’•

The ache of missing her doesn’t go away, but there is no sadness or worry about her being alone. I know she is in the best company possible and I look forward to joining her one day.

Astrid’s photo is part of the display of members of the parish who died in the past year.
