So long, my love...




It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that we must bid you farewell, for now.

She wasn't supposed to leave us this soon. She was going to get strong enough to enjoy just a little more time. I know it is all on the Lord's timetable, but that sure doesn't make it any easier.

On July 1st at 6:14am the world lost the most sweetest angel and heaven gained the most glorious spirit. My heart is so full; it hurts so bad right now. I don't want life to go on without her. I don't want her miss out on all the wonderful earthly events that will transpire throughout the years.

Last Saturday when she was admitted to the hospital all of her family was able gather around her and whisper to her their love and adoration for her. It would truly be the last time she would be fully able to communicate back to you and in that all too short of a moment I had with her I gained more wisdom and comfort than I have ever before. I find it so unbelievably appropriate that during her last few days that SHE would be comforting ME. She is always in the service of her family and others and I hope that the words she spoke to me will never fade from my heart. I love you and miss you so much mom!!

Whoa baby, it's been a lonnnng time!

OK, here we go... my attempt to play catch up... Scrolling down you see it was just a few posts ago that I was so proud of my new lil 2nd grader. Well as time so often does it just flew right by and we just wrapped up 2nd grade year... watch out 3rd grade. As tradition in our house here is Sam's mini shoot commemorating her 2nd grade year.

Our prima ballerina!

Miss Sammy had her 2nd dance recital with Miss Annie's dance class. I was beaming ear to ear watching her dance her heart out. She was absolutely beautiful, graceful and completely poised. I'm so glad she enjoys dance class and can't wait to start up the next session.

Another before and after... this one is not so dramatic...

Before: 4 bandanas (2 zebra print & 2 pink polka dot) After: 1 very ADORABLE bandana dress and 1 super STYLISH bandana shirt Now I know this is not a new concept here, but I am really quite proud of my little sewing creation. So proud that I'm sure the girls are going to be screaming and chanting 'put down the bandana and just walk away'. These were oh so (and sew) easy!!! I'm seeing one in every color and pattern for the girls... oh the possibilities!!
