A full life!

My husbands great grandma passed away about a week ago. Yesterday we had her services and celebrated her life. When we have told people that she was 100 years old, the common response is that she led a "full" life.

As we were driving home yesterday tired, he asked what does a full life mean? So if I died tomorrow at 37 years old , I didn't live a full life? Because my Nana lived to 100, it means that she lived a full life? It was a good question and a good point. No disrespect to those wanting to give condolences, but what do you consider full?

This morning, I convinced my hubby to stay home one more day. He looked tired and needed extra TLC from the family. He went to Noah's school to help in the class, and then we packed a picnic, went to the park, played, laughed and watch ducks. We took the boys to their favorite place for dessert,  came home to play avengers and made gingerbread houses.

Our day ended as we did our family devotion, tag teamed on the bath time, prayed and sang worship as they both drifted off to sleep!

Its days like these that add to a life. Is my life full? My tank can use many more days like this,  but I surely my tank ain't empty! That is a fact! May God help us, that despite our circumstance that we would have full days of love, Gods love!

On the way out I grabbed my camera, not because it was an occasion, but just because and I am so glad that I did. I captured what will probably be the most important pictures I will ever take. The day the Lord showed me what a full life looks like!

I would like to share them with you, because I love you!













Only thing I regretted was not jumping in on a few. The day was beautiful and the natural light was awesome!
