Remember When....

September 14, 2008

Today has been four years since moms passing. but today is a wonderful day for her because she is in no more pain. She is running, dancing, singing, watching over her grandchildren, children, family, hugging her parents and her sister, sharing childhood stories, and teaching.
She was a strong willed and an incredible women. No one was as strong as mom. Those that didn't know mom would have never guessed that she was fighting cancer. She always had a smile on her face even on the days she was in agony. I miss her more and more everyday but happy tears that she is no longer suffering. I fill her with me all the time and speak to her daily. She has a special place in my heart and always will. I love you with all my heart mom (Oma').

Giving Back...

I remebmer when my brother and I were small children living with our mother. We didn't have alot of food or anything much rather. It was hard at times but we always got by. One year for Christmas I received a scarf. I rembember being so excited because this cool scarf had mittins sewn to the ends of it.

I volunteer with the LDS Church and United Way every year. I have been attending "Day of Caring" for 4 years now. It is a spiritual experience and I love it. It is wonderful to see all those who volunteer put their heart and soul into what they are asigned to and enjoy it. I love knowing that I can contribute funds and my time to United Way and that it is helping a family in need.
