An Angel

A week ago today the mom had been told the bad news that she knew was coming. The brother so much loved by her and has been in her life always had left to go to heaven. She says that this has changed forever who she is. She also has said that having an older brother was the best. He was the one person as you grew up that you knew was always there for you offering love and protection.

Our hearts are so heavy and  the sadness comes and goes like waves crashing on the shore. My uncle will live on forever in our memories and never be far from our thoughts. We miss him so much already.

Mom & Her Brother~Ca. 1949

"Perhaps they are not stars, but rather openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy." Author unknown.

Peace be with you now mom's dear brother and forever be free of the limitations that life had sometimes put upon you. Someday we will meet again, this I know. We will take care of the mom just as you had growing up together, loving and protection her.

Much love from your family.

You cannot imagine to my surprise when I found out that I was the Mardi Gras Queen! I am overwhelmed.

SUNday

Ah, SUNday again. I usually enjoy this day but today I am busy doing a lot of thinking . . .

. . . I just don't understand the white stuff on the ground. It comes and it goes. I don't know where it goes when it leaves and I don't know where it comes from when it arrives. As soon as the ground is rid of the snow then back it comes . . . I haven't a clue . . . as long as it stays outside then I guess I will be OK with that . . . and another thing that I am thinking about . . . the pink collar, did you notice? Yep, the mom put me in the pink collar . . .

. . . the mom thinks I look so cute in it but since I haven't been wearing it in awhile it is now bothering me . . . she mumbles something about me getting used to it. I'll show her getting used to it. I will find a way to get this thing off of me. Let me see how to go about this . . .

. . yawn . . . sorry guess I have worn myself out and will need to catch some zzzzzs. I will just have to wait until the mom takes off the collar for me . . . that isn't such a bad deal as she will rub and scratch all around where the collar was. So I guess until then I will . . . yawn . . . zzzzzz.
