Today was one of the first Goodbyes.......The last day of CCLS school. There was a wonderful closing chapel and then a sweet Memorial for Caleb. The 50 plus third graders sang two songs around the flag pole where a Memory bench will be installed and were led in prayer, a devotion and receive a wonderful testament from Caleb's father. They then released 50 plus red balloons each attached with a picture of Caleb superimposed into Jesus' arms and a personal message from each child. None of the adults had a dry eye. Caleb's parents are a true testament to the love of Christ and are healing to these children despite their pain.
Leah, Ed and I have enjoyed the Cinderella song by Steven Curtis Chapman with the background video of a daddy dancing with his growing Cinderella, who leaves him much too soon. I am so sadden with the Chapman family loss and watching this new video of such a beautiful and happy Maria makes me hold my "Cinderella" and her brother a lot tighter. To God be the Glory for bringing us salvation and the peace to live in this confusing world.
