2013

THIS SAYS IT ALL...

 When someone is struggling, reach out. Be a healer. Be a restorer. Take time to wipe away the tears. Your job is not to judge. Your job is to lift the fallen.    -JOEL OSTEEN

THIS SAYS IT ALL...

JOY

OUR WORLD NEEDS LOVE

missing you...

I miss you terribly...

Amelia, Elizabeth, and Christy

AMELIA...ELIZABETH...CHRISTY...
    You are the SUN for me...the bright golden light that warms the day, the earth, and everyone...You are the silvery MOON for me that lights up the purple night sky and has all the stars dancing around you...You are the STARS for me, the brightest star that shoots across the midnight sky, the one we make our secret wish upon

MESSAGE TO MY FAMILY

 ...and to ALL my kids I say with hugs and kisses, "I truly love you...and you are wonderful, amazing, and good. You are the loves of my life, always have been, always will be. God bless you." MOM/MAMMA/GRACE

THE CLIMB...GIVING IT MY ALL

We all have stand-down moments that require us to stand up, stand in the center of ourselves, and know who we are. When you lose what you thought was a perfect relationship, when your marriage falls apart, when the job that defined you for 20 years is gone, when the people you'd counted on turn their backs on you, there's no question that changing the way you think about your situation is key to creating a strategy for improvement. Consciously, joyously, I continue the climb into 2013. Step, step, stepping with open arms, I'm going to give it my all.

It's so hard to say, goodbye.

In Tune With God

I can experience contentment in my midsts of adversity, because of my relationship with Christ. He has allowed it for a reason...my attitude must be in tune with Him. ♥
