Picture Memory of the Week!

The River - Our Second  Home!

Joshua, age 7

By age 7 I knew that Joshua absolutely loved the river!  This was his own little heaven, and thus it was mine too!  He was so happy because he could throw rocks for hours, and hours, and hours into the river.  We just had to make sure that no one was playing in front of him, and that there were no other tangible items in sight because then they would be in the river with all of the rocks!

I was really amazed that there were even rocks left with the amount of times we spent on the banks of our favorite rivers.

Even up until a few days before he died, Joshua was still throwing rocks into the water.

Many days I just go and sit at the river, and remember those sweet and wonderful days.  Doug's kids are awesome because we will throw rocks in the river together, and as they throw a rock, they will call out "I love you Joshua!

I love you my handsome Joshua boy!
