Did you ever notice how happy you are when you see the blue sky after the storm clouds clear out.  You know it's there but during the storm you temporarily forget.  That's how it is with God.  He's always there even when the storm clouds of life darken your world.  All you have to do is remember and reach out for Him.  He's always there to help you through the storm.

This is Alexis our second granddaughter.  Sometimes we call her Lexi.  She had the biggest most beautiful eyes when she was a baby.  They still are beautiful.  A friend of my once referred to her as the little girl with the dancing eyes.  She loves cookies, singing and is very smart.  When she graduates she wants to help people who have a hardship.  She's kindhearted and loves God.  We love Alexis.
