Lunch Date!

Today's lunch was awesome! Not so much because of the food but because of the awesome people I got to eat it with.
It was super fun to get together with my Mom, my Grandpa Sargent and my sister, Jen for a quick lunch during Jen's lunch break. 
Grandpa was super sweet and insisted on buying and he also gave us each a Valentine's box of chocolates. Best date ever! It has been so much fun getting to know him in a different way since my Grandma passed away. I know he misses her terribly but he seems so much more carefree since then. A lot of worry lifted off of his mind. 

It was a great day!

A Miraculous Life

 

I got to spend the afternoon with this wonderful man.
 My Grandpa, Norman Carpenter Sargent. 
He is giving me the honor of recording his life story. 
We recorded for just a couple hours and 
we still have a long way to go. 
According to him he has lived a miraculous life.
After listening to him thus far,
 I would have to say that I agree with him.
 He has had many miracles come to him in his life. 
Many times he should not have made it through
 to live to tell about it. 
I love how when you study peoples lives there are so many lessons to learn and it is obvious to see the Lord's hand in our lives. 
He truly is in the details of our lives. 
I love the perspective genealogy and personal histories give to me. 
I truly cannot wait to hear more about Grandpa's miraculous life.
