Behind every dark cloud

There really is a silver lining. Last night I was hit with a wave of sadness unexpectedly. I went into my laundry room and cried until I had a splitting headache... but I tell you it felt GOOD. Well besides the headache. I will say over & over again that my Grandpa is in Heaven and not suffering and I'm happy for that... but darn it... that doesn't stop me from missing him to pieces! And even though I didn't get to see him too often.. just knowing there's that void and he's not there (at least not physically).. hurts.

But God is good. In spite of all this that we're going through.. I got what I consider.. one of the most awesome gifts. My Uncle Mike got in touch with me!! It's been so long since I've heard from him... so seeing that he had made a comment on my blog in my email... wow... it was really something that brightened my day!

I'm probably going to embarrass him here... but he'll get over it :o) But my Uncle Mike was always someone I looked up to sooo much. As a kid, I don't think anyone made me laugh more and I always remember being so excited if we were going to visit my grandmommy & granddaddy and I knew he was going to be there. He was the funnest Uncle... EVER (I'm sure he's always going to hold that title to me!!!)

So God is good. In the midst of dealing with one of the hardest times ever... he has brought one of the people back into my life that means so much... and I'm so happy about that!
