A Painting a Day

He dances in the moonlight now, my grandson Grant. He is a twinkle in the night sky and is in the heavens during the day as well...I can look up and see him day or night. I could not even begin to tell you how many times I sang the song to my grandsons about MR MOON.

Mr Moon Mr Moon you're up too soon, the sun is still in the sky. Go back to bed and cover up
your head and wait till the day goes by.....

Not a day will go by with a prayer of thanks for his life and the gifts he left us. Stacey and Larry were given the sweetest mold of his little hand...and I almost cried out when I saw it. The last time I was in the room with him I had my fingers laced with his and then placed my fingers beneath his just to feel the weight and warm of his little hand one more time. So to see the beautiful mold Cooks Children gave them touched through my heart into my soul. My last touch, my last memory....his little hand.

I will try to remember to take a picture of Grant's only painting he did in my studio to post it next week. He called me Mum and Terry was Bampa....and I can still hear his little voice calling us. The sound echoes through out me and I pray it never leaves for he will always live in our hearts until we see him again in heaven.

In memory of Grant Hendren, Roanoke Texas, donations can be made to Autism Research.

I again cannot thank all of you who have written from reading my blog. Your words have sustained me through these days of numbness.

Grace,

Laurie

I can't believe it is March 1st...I lost the last week of February somewhere!

"David said further to his son, Solomon, "Be strong and of good courage, and act. Do not be afraid or dismayed; for the Lord God, My God, is with you." 1 Chronicles 28:20

Sunlit Bowl

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Sunlit Bowl Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   A Painting of soft pink and white flowers   created in 2013 brings back memories of living at Lake Cypress Springs. I loved it there. It did not love me!  Mold was my downfall.  I was prolific at painting there with my studio looking over the waters of a large catfish pond and Lake Cypress Springs. The mold pushed us back to DRY Dallas.  God guides our path today.  Memories are flooding in with the morning sun.  Proverbs 4:18    “ The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day.”  Today will be over 100 degrees but by Saturday the high is 79. Weather is the main talk these days. Remember I am in Texas.   We heard they may get snow in the Ohio River Valley. We are to see storms from the Pacific Hurricane coming our directio...

A Bit of Wonder Contemporary Horse Oil Daily Painting Art by Laurie Justus Pace 24 x 30 x 2 inches of thick buttery oils! Contact me to purchase: Laurie "This is the day that the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it". Psalm 118:24 It was a day of celebration yesterday as Lauren Gracen was born. Stacey began her labor around nine in the morning and was ready to push by 12:15, but they held her off while getting things set up. Took four good contractions with multiple pushes and the baby was there! All grandparents accounted for to count the toes and fingers! My admiration is for my daughter and her bravery and calmness despite the tension and newness of what she faced. I was honored to be there as the baby was delivered seeing my granddaughter push out into the light and take her first breathe... and then cry... and that she did. Terry was able to participate and he and Larry helped with pushing and getting Stacey upright for the process and then Terry was hon...
