It's been 2 months since you've called me mom. 2 months since I've heard you say good night. 2 months of living without you. How can this be? I have cried a thousand and more tears.

That he would fall asleep at the wheel. . .and when he would open his eyes he would be in the presence of the King of ... View Post
Our Baby
Our baby turns 8 today. . 8 years ago, we had different hired help. Chelsea had just graduated High School. . .now Elijah has graduated. . . 8 seems to be our number. Chelsea turned 8 when Elijah was born. Clarissa turned 8 when Ella was born and now Ella is 8 when the first Grandchild will be born. Not sure if there is significance, but interesting.
