We are very blessed by an amazing man, Robert Kohler, aka Carl's Grandpa. I am so thankful that my kids are getting the chance to know their great grandpa, a man of God who loves like the Lord calls us to, and lives his life with God as His focus. He is a wonderful example to us, he encourages us every time we speak and even through his precious cards he mails to us. Over Thanksgiving we had the chance to spend an afternoon with him, and it was such a blessing to us as a family. We drove down to his house where we spent some time visiting and catching up before heading out to lunch. Isaac and Luke had a great time listening to grandpa's stories, checking out his pet birds, and even putting bird seed out for the birds outside. Grandpa also took us out to "the beach" so the boys could run and play, he couldn't have picked a better thing for them to do, they loved it! It was a park on the bay in La Porte, the city put sand down by the water to make a beach, so the boys had a blast playing in the sand and on the water's edge. It was so sweet to see the kids playing alongside their great grandpa. Sadie, one of Carl's cousins, was able to join us at the beach, it was great catching up with her. She is so great with the kids and they adore her. We were sad to leave, but eventually had to head home. The boys had a great time playing with grandpa, getting to know him a little more, and spending time as a family. I am so thankful for the man we call grandpa, and so thankful for his love.
