Happy birthday, Dylan James

Today is my oldest grandchild's birthday. Dylan would have been 6. I try sometimes to imagine what he would be like, especially when I see other boys his age. Some people come and stay and wear out their welcome, others swoop in for a few and then are off somewhere else. Dylan swooped in for 5 1/2 days. But long enough for all of us to fall in love with him. I remember how everyone prayed, all over the world. But Dylan made his mark, stirred up a new depth of love in us, and off he went. Sure makes heaven seem sweeter.
