My heart is full of gratitude today for my dear family and loving friends. Since the news of David’s passing, our family has been the recipient of many, many forms of kindness and love. I am thankful for the way you have blessed our lives.
Since David’s disappearance, and especially now, we feel the anguish of not having our dear son with us. Our hearts are extremely grateful to many. We thank the police, the detectives and other authorities who have helped with David’s case. The coroner’s office has been very helpful and compassionate. During the past year, many people, and even strangers, have generously offered their time and services on our behalf. We have learned of the amazing ability of people to come together in a good cause. A dear friend commented how our family’s trial multiplied and magnified the good in everyone who became aware of David and our situation.
We are grateful for David and for his goodness. God has sustained us through the many prayers offered for our family by people of all denominations. We thank all who have helped us through this challenging time.
I am grateful for those special times when family and friends gather. I appreciate my loving and caring family and the opportunity to gather recently for my father’s 80th birthday. I put a few of weekend’s images together in the slideshow linked below. If you like the Miller family or if you like the Beatles, check out the slideshow.
I am thankful for Michelle. Our life together is a wonderful journey. I am grateful for how she has made me a better person. At times this has come through direct teaching moments but mostly it has come through her example of dealing with the issues of life in a thoughtful and inspired manner. I call her the “Idea Lady”. She “sees” needs and “better ways to do” that are not often visible to others. Thank you Michelle.
I am grateful for sunsets and sunrises. It just seems right that we would often start and end each day with vibrant color and interesting patterns. These views are often the very best of the entire day. They are gifts from God to help us remember that He is mindful of each of us. That we would always appreciate these cosmic reminders and in turn give thanks to God for all we have.
