Carolyn and the cross…

In honor of a rainy weekend, I took the time to indulge in one of my guilty pleasures and curled up with a BOOK.   Yes, I still remember how to read a book from cover to cover.  It was kind of like riding a bike…once I began turning the pages it all felt so natural again.  Of course, I have been hearing, from my BFF for a while, about a book that her husband was diligently writing about his mom.  I knew the story of his mom and had even met his mom when I photographed their wedding, several years ago, but to be perfectly honest I had never taken the time to know the faith, hope and love behind the story of their family.

 Every now and then you come across a book and you just know in your heart that the author has taken the time to write it as truthfully and authentically as they know how.  You can tell in every word chosen and every memory shared that the truth of the story is going to be simply enough to change your heart forever.   Jody you are a dear friend and more importantly a man that has taken the lessons that God has shared with you and turned them into a living example of his grace and love.

 Here’s to taking the time to share your life experiences.  I know Jody’s hope was to touch one heart and to share something that might just be exactly what someone else needed in his or her life.  Rest assured, my dear friend, that your efforts were accomplished as I thumbed through the pages of your work.

 If you are looking for a book to add to your “summer reading” list, make this your number one priority.   But just know that you will walk away from it a changed person.  You can’t say I didn’t warn you!

ENJOY!!!
