Please keep my family in your prayers. My grandma Topel passed away yesterday. She was 92.

She lived a long, beautiful life.

We are still so saddened.

I smile to think that she is up in Heaven telling Jesus one of her stories, but oh, how I long to hear one more myself...

How I long to hold her hand one more time,
or kiss her,
or tell her I love her,
or listen to her talk about her great-grandkids,
or help her put together a jig-saw puzzle...

Rest in the peace and grace of our Father in heaven my sweet gramma...

My grandbaby

Happy Birthday to my beautiful grandbaby Cayden! I love love love you baby!

Jada and her bestie...

Jada went to a birthday party and had an amazing time. It was at a place called "My Gym." It was really fun for her and Savannah.

Coco Monster!

The other day I straightened Jada's hair. That is the only way I can tell how long its getting because it is so curly. After I was finished she marched herself in front of her brothers and sisters shaking her head frantically because she loved the way her hair felt on her back.

My other daughter Alyssa said, "Wow Jada you look like Pocahontas!"

Later on that night Jada called her daddy and told him, "Dad, Ally said I looked like Coco Monster!"

It was too funny!

Jada-ism

So my sweet Jada was at the playground yesterday and she met another young girl. They began to play and swing. They were having a great time, and Jada must have decided to deepen their relationship so she asked the other little girl, "Do you have chicken?" The little girl replied, "Yes! I have 5 chickens, 2 dogs, a bird, and a gold fish." My Jada then replied in a serious tone, "Oh. I have chicken and fries!"

It was so darn cute! And perhaps a testament to her father's her McDonalds' habit!
