"I hope you jump in rain puddles"
I have a 9 yr. old granddaughter. That phrase did it for me. I am sitting here alone and I can tell you there wasn't a dry eye in this house.

3. I just lost it with that line. It was amazing and he was clearly effected by
the death of that precious child and those words meant so much to him. It was obvious.

4. I am hopeful that there are
rain puddles. In dry states like ours, in the summer if it rained we would go playing in the rain and jump in the gutters!
May that promising little girl or rather BIG GIRL be an inspiration.
