At this point in our lives we are busy with sports, work, kids and everything in between however we have realized how very important it is stop and MAKE the time for the little things.
Last week we visited my aunt and uncle at their farm place near Madelia. 3 hours of visiting with laughs, stories, reminiscing and smiles along with times of serious discussion of heaven, God, faith, ALS and how it has affected them since diagnosis and their future plans.
My uncle Lee has ALS and like I have said before has been a strong figure in our Belgard family. To see him struggling to talk and walk is difficult but I cherish these visits and love to hear that Belgard humor he still has! As I get older, I greatly value my family and want to get as much from them as I can plus expose my daughters to their stories.
Alayna drove Lee's golf cart around the yard and Kalyse sat on his lap and pushed buttons on his recliner giving them a "ride". It warmed my heart to see him chuckle and smile at them so I am glad we took the time.
