Description
Ok this type of photography is completely out of my comfort zone but you have to start somewhere, right?
This is a dedication to my Mom and Dad thou they’ve been gone for several years now. It started out not as a dedication but more of a learning curve. It just sort of evolved and became that.
The two bibles on the table are Mom and Dad’s. The song Amazing Grace was a favorite of theirs. I don’t know about those of you out there that have lost one or both of your parents all thou I believe it to be true; I still miss Mom and Dad and would love to be able to set down and ask their advice about things going on in my life.
As a young man I was rather difficult and didn’t understand Dad’s wisdom until later in life. I thank God for the last few years with him when some of that wisdom finally sank in and I understood just what he mint, when he said things like “son I could save you allot of heart ache if you would just listen to me, but you wont so you’ll just have to learn the hard way”! I think that was very prophetic of him or maybe he just knew me that well cause I have pretty much learned everything just that way, the hard way.
Mom I had several more years with and thank God for those years. Sadly Alzheimer’s took her mind; I thank God for taking her home. She was very compassionate and loving her favorite saying was kill them with kindness and she pretty much practiced that although she had her moments. One of which was the switches she would cut to impart her wisdom on my behind, LOL. What I miss about her the most is her hugs they just seemed to have made everything better. I should say I never got a spanking I didn’t deserve and I deserved many more than I got.
A special thanks to Cavalier Lady for her inspiration here on renderosity and advice on how to do this type of photography via her web sight, thank you Maria!!!

Its a great tribute to your parents. May our Lord Jesus Christ Shower his blessings with his everlasting life upon them. Amazing Grace! that was the first song I picked up on my Piano without any ones help.That was only a begining there after God blessed me to learn many other instruments. YOur story was very touching and a lesson for me.
