Pray For A Freind
I have a dear friend that is extreamly sick. I ask that we all pray that God gives her an easy path to follow to him. We would like to keep her with us but know God is wanting her too. God, we ask that you carry her qently to her new home.

Happy Mothers Day
Sitting here thinking of tomorrow brings that old nostalgia and sorrow back from the depths of my heart. Tomorrow is mother’s day. I know a lot of you have lost your mothers and know the emptiness of which I am speaking. The vast majority of people today will out live their parents, usually loosing them in their seventies or even eighties. I was blessed to have my dad until just a few months shy of his eighty-first birthday.
Some are not as lucky. I lost my mother when I was eleven years old. She was thirty-three. Just at the time in life that a young girl needs her mother most. Mother’s days have brought that pain back to me every year for a very long time now. I have had that grief with me, not just as an adult that, over time finds a place to store it in a very special corner of the heart but also first as a child, not knowing what to do with it.
I am now a mother, grandmother and great grandmother and enjoy my children all through the year. Still on this day, there is a little touch of blueness and a few tears for what I never knew.
My mother is always with me and I know your’s is with you, so hug your children and grandchildren. Cherish them on this day and know your mother thinks you did a good job.

Rainy Weather
Hi everyone, sorry it has been a week and I was quiet. I had a lot going on and wasn't on the computer. I really need to keep in touch and will try and post something everyday.
The weather is unbelievably cold and very wet for this time of year. Truthfully, I like it this way but I know most folks don't. I do enjoy the sun but with that comes the heat of summer and I could do with out that.
Speaking of summer, I hope everyone has found a Red Cross or YMCA / YWCA to sign up for CPR classes before beach weather gets here. We all need to know the basics. Besides it's an activity to plan to get you out of the house.
This week I plan on posting some of the danger signs and things to watch for when you take your kids and family to the pool or beach.
