HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the most amazing mom in the entire
world!!! She would have been 86 today. As each year passes
without my sweet mother, I just love her more and more.
Mother and her cross-eyed girl! |
When I was growing up, we didn't have much, yet we had
E.V.E.R.Y.T.H.I.N.G. My childhood is something I will
never take for granted and will forever be grateful for. The
love we had as a family is a precious gem...that for whatever
reason, God decided to bless us with. What we lacked in
"things", God surpassed in love. Glory to Him!
Family |
Little did I know, later in life I would have the opportunity to
do things for my mother that she never dreamed she would
ever be able to do. Thank you, Jesus for allowing me to do
this! Oh, the places we would go...the things we would see...
the adventures we would share.
Our trip to Italy |
Off to see Phantom of the Opera! |
Phantom of the Opera Again! |
Trip to L.A. Do I look over excited to you...maybe even a little boxy? I must have borrowed the shoulder pads from one of the football players. |

Today, I remember my mother. I love her. I miss her. And I hope to
be half the woman she was. Mom, until we meet again...
God be with you till we meet again;
By His counsels guide, uphold you,
With His sheep securely fold you;
God be with you till we meet again.
God be with you till we meet again;
Ended when for you earth's story,
Israel's chariot sweep to glory;
God be with you till we meet again.
Till we meet, till we meet,
Till we meet again at Jesus' feet;
Till we meet, till we meet,
God be with you till we meet again.
