 Pastor Linda Sharing God's Love

A Couples Legacy gift from our Goddaughter








      I dedicate this special poem to the fine parents of Kenny Lee, Joey, Shawn and Elvis.  I extend this dedication to the grandparents of at least six grandchildren.  I include "Boss" the grand dog and "Sadie" the princess of Begley. A.K.A (d.o.g) But if I wrote it that way she might not understand.  And finally to their Adopted Godchild, Me and my three girls the adopted Godchildren.  Kenny and Linda may God bless your every step in the journey of your lives together forever.
If I could put in words what you both mean to me,
the words would be many and would speak of legacy.
The legacy you have earned with your boys and their young too,
will live through all their lives when your lives are both through.
You have taught all that know you that marriage still means forever.
My chin tilts up as I see you both after all that you have weathered.
Countless nights without rest and long journeys far apart,
never swayed our Lord from knowing of the joining of your hearts.
Through illnesses and troubles even beyond a normal spell,
the two of you are still "Baby" and your smiles are still a swell.
The home that you have both created with much thought and warm love,
Is a portrait of your packaged gift from heaven up above.
Life's lessons have been learned from watching the two of you.
I know now that by our true friendship we are a family too.
I am sure I have missed some magical moments in all of your history.
I must however share the times that meant the most to me.
The stories of the courtship of Miss Beauty and Mr. Man,
are like all the hugs and kisses and even holding hands.
Calls from work just to say "I love you",...oh and by the way....
"Can you think of anything you need me, to bring home to you today?"
Which brings me to the thing I can appreciate most about you both.
You never forget the little things that go beyond the oath.
You keep a safe haven for all of your family to be a part of.
They come from near and far to feel the warmth of all your love.
Each time they witness your bond and all it's many worths again.
They take away a legacy of both of you inside of them.
~ Update not to leave anyone out. Sadie went back home with her
other Mommy and we are the proud parents of "Shadow" a miniature
spoiled rotten dobie,lol! His name is more than fitting ~Nov.2006

With lots of love and admiration,
Jamers
