      Wish my son could see this.We had a close relationship, til he married. Then a relatively minor fallout over D.I.L's treatment of my grandson ( her step-son) & they cut me completely out of their lives. Havent seen 3 yr old granddaughter in over a year, she doesn't know who I am. I'm "lucky" they can't stop contact w/grandson due to his being much older & still being friends w/ his mother. It's beyond heartbreaking.

      By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
      For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
      And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Seems like more people want to recognize him as a person even tho he's really tall. Was no special thing to some people.

    The value of having a mother in your life is unexplainable! Let’s appreciate her while she still alive before she’s gone.

    I haven't seen my son in four years. I miss him every day, and pray someday we will be reunited.

      Tricia, I'm a Mother also. Ally kids live with me. The youngest being 25 years old. He'll be with you. What's his name? Not fully, but I like when saying my Prayers that I'm specific. If it's not a problem. I do have yours though.

    Awwww that’s the best! He was so sweet he wanted to run but really he didn’t. Every mom who ever loved their son understands his overwhelmed reaction. What a great thing! Melted my heart. Just what he needed! 💕💖🥰❤️👍🏼😇
