Sunrise, sunset

I just got home from a wonderful trip to the Grand Canyon.  We were all so blessed to be able to make this trip as a family.  It truly is one of the 7 Wonders of the World.
Although my youngest Grandchildren may not remember the grandeur of it,  I hope a small piece of it will remain somewhere inside of them.  
It really is breath taking when you stand quietly on the edge of it and try to 'take it all in'.
It is one of God's most magnificent Creations.

In between taking pictures and worrying and making sure the grand kids didn't fall over the edge, and I do mean EDGE!, 
  
This picture captures a song in my head, as I watch my Mom, children and grand children together and the Grand Canyon as a back drop of life in progress, constantly changing....... (you all know it).
           Is this the little girl I carried?
           Is this my little boy at play?
           I don't remember growing older
           When did they?
          When did she get to be a beauty?
          When did he grow to be so tall?
           Wasn't it yesterday
           When they were small
           Sunrise, sunset
           Sunrise, sunset
           Swiftly flow the days
           Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
           Blossoming even as we gaze.
           Sunrise, sunset
           Swiftly fly the years
           One season following another
           Laden with HAPPINESS and TEARS.

Life just keeps on going.  Nothing stands still.  Change is constant.
  So we might as well  ENJOY THE RIDE!

I can't help but mentioning how much I missed David.
This is his environment.  He loves the outdoors and history, and his family.
He would have loved this family trip.  and with that said...

I say with Gratitude in my heart,   'Thank you Lord for your Amazing Creations and blessing me with the opportunity to share it with my family.'
