One week while sitting in sacrament meeting a women behind us leaned forward and informed us that she was in love with our baby. Fast forward a few months and we now call her Grandma Jan. Jan and her husband, Jim, just adore Gabe and he adores them back! In fact it's a struggle to get Gabe to sit with us at church because he would rather be sitting with Jim and Jan! Last night Jan made a comment about how interesting it is that the Lord makes peoples paths cross at certain times in life. When she said that I started thinking about how blessed we are to have crossed paths with them at this time in our life. More than once Jan has dropped everything she had planned for her day and come to watch Gabe when I really needed some help. And Sunday after Sunday, Jim patiently sits with Gabe in his lap, showing him the scriptures and helping him turn the pages. He even shared his frosted brownie with Gabe at dinner on Sunday. Now that's love!
Jim and Jan, you have been such a blessing to us! Thanks for falling in love with our baby!
