Life is a miracle, don't let it slip away.
Open your heart to others; give of yourself each day.
See the beauty in everyone regardless of where they've been.
Some have a difficult journey and really need a friend.
Share your gifts and talents; listen with your heart.
Do the things you dream about but don't have time to start.
Pick a bouquet of flowers; show someone that you care,
Be gracious and forgiving; life is never fair.
Hold on to your courage, you may need it down the road.
We all have a cross to bear; it could be a heavy load.
If you practice all these things, no matter where you roam,
You may find both sun and rain, but you'll never feel alone.

Joshua 6 1/2 weeks old passed away May 3, 2002 from Baby Shaken Syndrome.
God took him home so he wouldn't suffer on earth any more.
One of the Saddest Days of my Life.
Joshua was so very precious.

My Husband Jerry is my Hero.
He kept encouraging me when
things seemed not so good.
I had alot of problems with
both of my knees. I was in
alot of pain most of the time,
but my baby kept me going.
Plus I had to stay strong for
myself. Started having alot
of problems with my knees
since I was in my 20's. When
I was in my late 30's the
Doctor told me that I had
knees of a 80 year old person.
I had no cartridge in between
my bones. Just bone rubbing bone.
After a while I had to quit work.
Couldn't handle the pain to much
after a while, but I cope with
it. Some days it was harder than
others, but I managed to keep
going.
I had my right knee replacement
Sept. 2007, and my left knee
replacement April 2008.
(My three children are my greatest
Hero's also). They were always
there for me. I couldn't ask for
better children. They're The Best.
My daughter Angela worked around
her job so that she could take me
to my Physical Therapy Sessions
twiced a week for 6 weeks. Like I
said, above "I couldn't ask for
a better daughter." She was always
there for me. The Physical Therapy
was alot of work (Like they said,
"No Pain No Gain").
My Grandchildren are also one of my
greatest Hero's. My two Grandson's
Richard & Zachary was my two
little gentlemen. They helped me
when my knees were hurting down
the hill and back up the hill when
they were around. Opened my car
door for me, and doors going into
the stores. ("That's why I call them
my little gentlemen).
My Granddaughter Jessica helped when
she could if the two boys wasn't
doing it. She usually didn't get
much of a chance. I have the most
Loving Grandchildren ever. You
couldn't ask for better Grandchildren.
I had 14 Surgery's so far in my life
time that "God And My Family seen me
though".

"Jesus Died For Us So We May Live."
