The Holidays Without My Angel

As we approach the holidays again this is a difficult time for myself and my family.  This will be our second Thanksgiving and Christmas without our  pecious Emma Grace you would think that it may get easier over the years but the truth is I still miss her the same today as I have everyday since she left us to be at home with our Lord.  I know she no longer suffers and is having the time of her life and it's just a TEMORARY separation for a little while until we get to be at home with her.  I post this in her memory and as a reminder to not be forgotten.  If this is the only way I can see her precious face it will have to do.  It's like a little piece of Heaven for me.  May God bless all the other heart moms who have lost and all others throughout this time of year.  We will still always celebrate her everyday and throughout the Holidays.  We have a special Christmas tree just for our Gracie.  I know I've shared this video before but I'll share again just to see her precious face and remind everyone of the precious little Angel we had for just a little while.  I'm proud God chose ME to be her mom it is an honor but also painful as I miss her daily.   Please pray for all those that have lost especially this time of year and those that are struggling with their own battle.  I love you Emma Grace I know we'll have your presence throughout!

For those of you who know me know that I'm the BIGGEST Bob Seger Fan ever!  I'm always blogging my feelings and the journey we have had and continue to have over the last year, so today I thought I would bring a little positive to uplift me and make me smile at the good memories right before Emma's surgery my life long dream finally came true and I actually got to see him in concert for the first time in my life!  Ecstatic didn't even begin to describe it!  See I had a dream come true right before we had to face our worst nightmare so I would like to share some of the concert clips from our trip to Nashville because anyone around me knows that if I'm listening to anything there's going to be some Seger included in there somewhere and when I think of his song; " Wait for Me"  it makes me think that I'm telling my precious Emma just to wait for me I'll be there one day! I know she'll be waiting for me in Heaven with the open arms of t...

Don't judge me until you know me, don't underestimate me until you've challenged me, and don't talk about me until you've talked to me.

I feel the need to address certain issues in life that are not acceptable and try to do the right thing and remain Godly in an UnGodly world.  I will start by using my favorite Elvis quote, "When things go wrong, don't go with them."  This being said the meaning I am using in this is when you feel people have wronged you and direspected you don't go there with them, do not go down to their level.  It's one thing to try to understand the differences in one's beliefs but it takes it to a whole other level when one goes a step farther and actually makes fun of one's beliefs.  Oviously everyone thinks their choice is the best reguarding anything and that is fine, if you are comfortable with where you are in life then that is where you should be.  If I disagree with you, I understand that not everyone thinks the same way but as adults it is shameful to be childish and make fun of someone's beliefs.  That speaks volumes about the individual, as they say acti...

Heart Awareness Week February 7th to 14th

This friday the 3rd in wear red day in support of heart awareness.  I am working with Kerringtons Heart, www.kerringtonsheart.org in order to spread awareness about Congenital Heart Defects (CHD).  Any business that would like to participate to spread the awareness can contact myself.  It consist of your customers purchasing a heart for $1.00, your cost is nothing all you have to do is display them in your windows, counter, or ect.  All you have to do is let me know if you would like to participate and the amount of hearts you think you may need.  We would love to have all the support we can get for this wonderful cause.  This is something dear to my heart and I am working in honor of my daughter Emma Grace.  Every 15 min a baby is born with a congenital heart defect, this is approximately 1 in every 100 babies born . 4,000 of them will not live to celebrate their 1st Birthday . I pray and hope just like every other parent who has a child born...
