However, it is just wood and bricks without the love that comes visiting and swirling through and through. We are so blessed with children that are amazing and beautiful inside and out! Yes, Jennie, you are a beautiful young lady in a million ways. You have taught this old lady so much, and for that I will be eternally grateful. Your gift for writing and lifting spirits flows like love from the keyboard. Thank you for sharing yourself with us. Thank you for giving us three beautiful grandchildren. Thank you for making my son the happiest man alive. Thank you for teaching my grandchildren about Jesus and His love for them. The pleasure goes both ways... however, I am not sure I'd classify it as "simple". It is nothing short of amazing! Love, Grammie :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3964127382381586570.post-52218876838456787392010-10-08T20:21:08.097-04:002010-10-08T20:21:08.097-04:00What a beautiful post...how wonderful to have a pl...What a beautiful post...how wonderful to have a place like that.

M...I'm soooo tired after a very long day today. Maybe that's the reason that I'm crying as I read this, and it's a HAPPY post. I love that you love that town and that family and THAT WOMAN. She loves you back, you know. <br /><br />I really enjoyed your pictures and tale of the weekend in Shep Land. You can see the love in every one of them. <br /><br />And btw... you can see the blue hour in one of them too. <br /><br />Little secret: I almost posted about sitting among your family in church as my simple pleasure. Grammie cried, you know. Her heart was so full.<br /><br />I have prayed with her over every member of that clan. God is good.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05671482394424988047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3964127382381586570.post-3112240612408387992010-10-07T21:18:50.329-04:002010-10-07T21:18:50.329-04:00I want to go with you next time .

What a wo...Jennie, can I go next time? PLEEEEZ...<br /><br />What a wonderful place - I love the cookout house! Your kids will never forget these times. I still hold very fond memories of visiting my grandparents' house - a little house on top of a hill that my grandfather built himself. And you have discovered the secret of the simple pleasure - it's the PEOPLE, their loving and caring hearts - that makes the PLACE special!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00840994989201507494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3964127382381586570.post-60949380720150815612010-10-07T12:43:53.240-04:002010-10-07T12:43:53.240-04:00Jennie, this made me smile over and over.

I still miss my grandparents, even though they've been gone many years now. Being together as a family is truly one of life's greatest simple pleasures.
