all the while I can't.
Hold them close.
Keep them safe.
Shield and shelter them.
Bless and buoy them.
Let them remember their Crappaw and Mimi,
and their Aunt Aubrey and Uncle Kevin,
and their cousins, Calleigh, Ryder, and Avery,
and miss us all,
but not with the terrible pangs of longing
with which we miss them.
Keep them busy and happy and fruitful and joyful
while we are absent one from the other,
in Jesus' name, amen.
