I started this blog soon after the death of my beautiful 17-year-old son, Hayden, as a way to deal with my grief. I titled it "Dear Hayden" because at first I wrote as if I was writing to him. My use of the word "dear" ended up being twofold: "used as an affectionate or friendly form of address" and "regarded with deep affection; cherished by someone." Many posts are saved quotes, song lyrics, Bible verses, poems, etc. with credit given to the actual authors as much as possible. Enjoy~

Rain
When I was watching Trump's inauguration speech last week, Franklin Graham (Billy Graham's son) came up to do a Bible reading and give the Gospel message to America, which brought tears to my eyes. Anyway, it started to rain and he told President Trump that rain is a sign of God's blessing. That reminded me of how it started to rain at your funeral when everyone came outside and your casket was put in the hearse. It was actually amazing timing, because if it happened any other time, nobody would have noticed it. It was such a light rain. It was beautiful. Thank you, Lord, for the blessing of Hayden!
