MY LOVE
I know that many of you have seen this video on my friend Sillybug's blog - but I want it on MY blog and I am ready to have it here.
I LOVE MY HUSBAND - He is truly an AMAZING person. Filled with so much love, tenderness, JOY, gentleness and kindness. He helped mold me into the person that I am today. HE is the very reason that I love God. I knew he would only marry me if I loved God - so I went out and LOVED God. I am missing him alot lately. It seems so strange that he just vanished out of our lives one day. That is really hard to grasp and some times I just have a really hard time with it. Please think of me often in your prayers. I am in need of being lifted up!

And.....I still love this video. I have watched it over and over on M's blog but I still cried when I watched it this time. She really captured him so well in it.
He was so much like God--the way he holds his little ones and takes so much joy in them. Pure goodness. He was such a humble teacher for all of us.
Sixbit makes it easier to imagine God--His leaving us makes Heaven closer.
We miss him so much too! When I was unpacking the other night I found an eye patch from C--Brent brought them to the white elephant gift the year we got married--either he or Mike W hid them all over our house and now and then they still turn up!
CWY: crying with you
Mrs. J's comment made me laugh and cry. I totally agree, but it made me laugh thinking about what Sixbit's face would look like if we told him he was pure goodness.
Pinky, your family is so precious to us. Please know that we are praying for God's comfort and peace to completely cover you.
oh you guys!! Mrs J - that was sooo Sixbit and the funny thing is that SB has one more lying around waiting to be found!!
Megan, you are totally right--my tears were making me melodramatic. It is true though!
Pinks: an eye patch? Or is it aNother prank I think I heard about....hmmm
once again, mrs. j says something in a way i never could.
Yesterday after I watched this, I was cleaning the kitchen and crying, and then for no reason, I thought about that time that Brent told us all the story about the "athletic massage" and I started laughing, with my tears still rolling down my face. And I think that's what makes it strange to grieve the loss of Brent ... all our memories of him are so funny and happy and joyful. We love y'all, Edie, and we pray for you often and earnestly.
I'm forever praying for you my sweet, precious, dear, sensitive, loving friend. I feel so much for your pain and loss. I'm crying with you and praying by your side, even though I'm still across the pond. When I think of you, it's seems like I've been here for years. I can't wait to see you again - soon!!!
I am commenting before I watch the video... because otherwise I KNOW I will have trouble typing through the tears. S has climbed up behind me, she sees the front page of the video, and says, "oh Moma, I wanna see Uncle 'ent!" So now I'm off to watch and cry along with you. You are in my thoughts and prayers every single day.... we love you bunches. And feel so helpless about being there for you guys when we're so so far away. Give those kiddos big hugs for us. Hoping that an ABQ trip works out for us this summer... with a new littl'un in tow.:)
Okay, I couldn't even get past the first five seconds. Maybe tomorrow.
its healing to watch it -ZZ!! I watched it and watched it and watched it (probably 20 times the first time I saw it) and I cried but the tears felt good. I am praying for all of you - I am like my friend Jan - sometimes I forget that I am not the only one who really really really missed Brent.
My heart aches for you Edie and I am forever greatful to Brent for leading you to the Lord. I'm so sorry that he had to leave you early but the reward will be great in the end. I pray for you and your family daily. If I never see you again while on earth I look forward to seeing you again in Heaven and meeting your wonderful most amazing husband. Sending you lots of love and hugs. Christine

There is a song on christian radio which has only one line that I can remember "it's Friday but Sunday is coming..."
This time is hard. March Madness so much makes me think of SB. I hardly have the energy to watch the games this year.
Phil 3:20-21
"But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body."
Its Friday (and it feels like it) but Sunday IS COMING
you are constantly in our thoughts and prayers

You & your kids are in our Cribside Prayers every night. Thank you for sharing a meal with us again!
E, Just wanted you to know you are always in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you for sharing your heart with us and what you're going through. I would love to one day hear the story of how you and Brent met.
Love, Denise
