Today is little Miss Eliza Ray's 2nd birthday. Its hard to believe she's already 2 years old.

Hey Buddy, I wanted a picture representing “The stars at night are big and bright deep in the heart of Texas” so I painted one. It’s far from perfect but I like it. I couldn’t get a good picture of it because of the lighting but here it is anyway. Not too bad for my first try.

Your niece Lily is 10 today. She's growing up so fast. I hope you let her feel you close today.
Love, Mama 

Today is your little sisters birthday. Can you believe she's already 29 years old? Time is going by too fast. Let her feel you near today.
Love, Mama

It's hard to believe your nephew Ian is already 13 years old today. He's growing up too fast! I so wish you could be here for him, I know you would love him so much. 
Love, Mama 

It's so hard to believe Ella is 4 already. How I wish you were here to see her but I know y'all are watching over her from heaven.
Love, Mama 

Happy 4th of July boys, I love you and miss you so much.
Love, Mama 

Buddy since brown dragonflies make me feel like they are a sign from you I built one last week to hand in the yard in memory of you. I hope you like it.
Live, Mama 

Sister Perry's grand daughter graduated high school last night and they gave her a party today. We got invited so we got to see Sister Perry today.

I planted new flowers in your wishing well for you today. I hope they grow beautiful for you.
Love, Mama

Well Buddy today is your 38th birthday. You've now had as many in heaven as you did here. My heart hurts, I miss you so much and I love you more than ever. I made you a chocolate pudding pie today and Dooley and I sang happy birthday to you and had a piece for you. I just wish you were here to eat it. I know you're having a wonderful day in heaven and your little brothers Wayne and Buck are helping you celeberate. Some day I will too. Until then just know your Mama loves you and you're always in my heart and on my mind.
Love, Mama 

Today is Mother's Day and I so wish you were still here.
Love, Mama


 

The Invisible Cord
~Author Unknown~

We are connected,
My child and I,
by An invisible cord
Not seen by the eye.
It’s not like the cord
That connects us ’til birth
This cord can’t be seen
By any on Earth.
This cord does its work
Right from the start.
It binds us together
Attached to my heart.

I know that it’s there
Though no one can see
The invisible cord
From my child to me.
The strength of this cord
Is hard to describe.
It can’t be destroyed
It can’t be denied.
It’s stronger than any cord
Man could create
It withstands the test
Can hold any weight.

And though you are gone,
Though you’re not here with me,
The cord is still there
But no one can see.
It pulls at my heart
I am bruised…
I am sore,
But this cord is my lifeline
As never before.
I am thankful that God
Connects us this way
A mother and child
Death can’t take it away!

Happy Easter boys, I love you and miss you so much.
Love, Mama 

Today is your sisters 39th birthday, you boys stay close to her and ask Jesus to shower her with many blessings today and always. I sure wish you were here.
Love, Mama

Happy Valentine's Day boys, I love y'all so much.

Happy birthday boys, I love and miss y'all so much.
Love, Mama

Tonight was the candlelight service at the mall boys. You will never be forgotten.
