Ironically, dad’s Spanish vocabulary was pretty extensive… probably bigger than mine. His struggle was conjugating his verbs and using pronouns correctly 🤣. Funny how these little idiosyncrasies are what we remember and miss the most.

“Lo Quiero Mucho” will always be dads way of saying he loves us. The most wonderful and unique memory I chose to put on his marker. I’m kinda glad all my corrections didn’t stick. It’s these memories that I hold onto the tightest.

“For we know that when this earthly tent we live in is taken down (that is, when we die and leave this earthly body), we will have a house in heaven, an eternal body made for us by God himself and not by human hands. We grow weary in our present bodies, and we long to put on our heavenly bodies like new clothing. For we will put on heavenly bodies; we will not be spirits without bodies. While we live in these earthly bodies, we groan and sigh, but it’s not that we want to die and get rid of these bodies that clothe us. Rather, we want to put on our new bodies so that these dying bodies will be swallowed up by life. God himself has prepared us for this, and as a guarantee he has given us his Holy Spirit.” (2 Corinthians‬ ‭5:1-5‬ ‭NLT‬‬) 😇
