She is their Guardian Angel

Everything in this world eventually comes to an end, which at times can be disheartening.  It's the feeling you get when you read a book that's so good you don't want it to end.  Or when you watch a movie that you wish would go on a little while longer.

But all things- good and bad-do come to "The End."  In fact, life ultimately does come to the end-sometimes sooner than we expect, as is the case of my beloved Jeannette passing away at such a young age.  All of us who have stood by the casket of a loved one know the painful emptiness of a heart that wishes it wasn't over yet.

Thankfully, Jesus steps into the fray of terminal disappointments, and, through His death and resurrection, He interjects hope for us. 

Jeannette is her children's Guardian Angel and I imagine her peeking into the window looking at her children just like in the picture. 

I miss my Nettle Poodle.
