“It was hard for Little Acorn to believe he would ever be a big, strong oak tree. Soon Little Acorn grew into Little Oak. But now what was he to do? He couldn’t grow oranges like the orange tree or flowers like the rose bush. He just grew and grew until he became Big Oak, and his branches were big and strong-but still he didn’t know what he was to do. Then one day Big Oak found that his strong branches were just right for a very special purpose.”
There are so many acorns in this family. Don, who’s son married a girl and had a daughter. He was an Oak that started it all. Leaving a legacy of other little acorns that will grow and grow and become oaks of their own. They wanted to remember Ryan, their son, their brother, their husband, their father, by planting a little seed in their yard. It soon grew and grew and while still small, it is becoming an oak. This family is strong. They are joyful. They are tight-knit. “They’re like trees replanted in Eden, putting down roots near the rivers–Never a worry through the hottest of summers, never dropping a leaf, Serene and calm through droughts, bearing fresh fruit every season.” (jeremiah 17:8)
