IT'S NOT MY FOUGHT......

Stephanie and Steven was not obeying the rules last night when we went out to eat:

Mom = Stephanie Launa & Steven Eugene this is not how we act in a restaurant

Stephanie = It's not our fought mommy

Mom = Then who's fought is it.

What could I say to that......

IN LOVING MEMORY OF FRANK D BARRETT

THE BROKEN CHAIN
If we only knew that day that God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly; in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you; you did not go alone;
For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories; your love is still our guide;
and though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our family chain was broken, and nothing seems the same;
but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

We love you very much
and miss you terribly!

DADDY CONVERSION WITH THE KIDS YESTERDAY

Stephanie was lying in the floor. She looked up at her daddy and said:

Stephanie: Daddy I wish I could live in Heaven.

Daddy: Why

Stephanie: Because no one is sad or sick.

Daddy: That's true, but mommy and daddy would miss you very much.

Stephanie: I know, but we will all be together one day.

Steve said this was why too deep for him. He just picked her up and hugged her.


Then when they were coming to pick me up at work:

Steven: Daddy why did God turn it on so bright. (While covering his eyes)

Daddy: Turn what on so bright.

Steven: The Sun

1st PARENT CONFLICT AT SCHOOL

Today when Steve went to pick the kids up at school, one little boy’s mom was having a cow... Her little boy had a bruise on him. The little boy said that Steven and two other boys ganged up on him and pushed him down. Ms Trull was trying to explain to the mom that Steven and the other boys was playing and her son got in the middle of them and fell down. Another little girl in the class was even trying to tell her what happen... So to make the mom happy all three boys had to tell him they were sorry.

After the mom left, Steve got with Ms Trull and wanted to make sure Steven didn't do anything wrong. She said that they were just being boys and were playing little rough and the little boy just got caught in the middle.

If I went to school and complained about scraps and bruise I would have been there everyday.

STEPHANIE HAD HER FIRST BLOW OUT

When we went to pick Stephanie up at school, she was in the "THINKING CHAIR". She got upset with the teacher because she didn't get a stamp today. Ms. Trull explained that she didn't get it because she wouldn't help clean up. She then started crying and it wasn't no stopping her. Her heart was broke.

When I walked in the class room and saw her in the "THINKING CHAIR". My heart broke. Then to hear her crying, that her teacher doesn't love her anymore. Boy that just broke my heart and the teachers even more. We both talked to her and tried to explain why she had to get her clothes pin moved, no stamp, and why she had to go to the "THINKING CHAIR". She finally gave Ms. Trull a hug and told her she was sorry.

I know why Stephanie had a blow out at school today; we had a late night last night. It was after 10:00 before we got home, feed, and put to bed. She needs at least 10 hours of sleep, the more the better.

I don't get off work until 7:00 pm. I am trying to work my regular hours and 10 hours over time. If I didn't need the money I wouldn't, but I need the extra money to send her to private school. This is tearing me up inside....

WELCOME BACK MY FRIEND

Today is my best friend and co-worker first day back at work. She has been out of work for 6 months. She was in a car wreck the last of February, a week or two weeks later she started having pains in her side. When she went to her medical doctor, they sent her for a stomach scan. That is when they diagnose her with Stage two Ovarian Cancer. (Thank God for the wreck) Since then she has been though 3 big chemo treatments and is having small Chemo treatment every Wednesday until December the 2nd.

With every thing she has been though, and things she has lost. The one thing she hasn’t lost was her faith in God. If anything it has got stronger.

Now when I talk to her, I feel like I have to watch what I say or more or less what I complain about. My problems are nothing compare to what she has been though or what she is still going though. When I start complaining about little stuff, and I catch myself. I tell her how sorry I am, she tells me not to worry. She says she now knows how precious life is and she just doesn’t let the little stuff get her down. I still feel so bad.

I thank God everyday for her safe return back to me; her friendship means the world to me.

Welcome Back my Dear Friend.

A SPECIAL DIET COKE

This morning while out for his morning bicycle ride, my dear sweet hubby called me at my morning break. He wanted to know if I wanted to come outside and share a Diet Coke with him. I think that was the best .60 he every spent.

THE SMALLEST THING MEANS THE MOST.........

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY

Today would have been my dad's 73rd Birthday. There isn't a day goes by I don't think of him. My life will never be the same. I know he is in a better place, and I know he went to heaven so I could have my babies. But I miss him so much; if I could only tell him one more time I LOVE HIM. Everyone tells me, I need to let go, but I can't I miss him. If I would have known that night would have been the last time I talked to him, I would have made sure he knew I love him and how great of a Daddy he was. You never know when you say Good bye or Good Night to some one it could be the last time. I try know to let everyone that means a lot to me know how I feel about them. Dad if you are listening please know I love you and you were the greatest dad every.

I found this poem by Judy Burnette that say everything:


Dad
by Judy Burnette

Dad...so many images come to mind
whenever I speak your name;
It seems without you in my life
things have never been the same.

What happened to those lazy days
when I was just a child;
When my life was consumed in you
in your love, and in your smile.

What happened to all those times
when I always looked to you;
No matter what happened in my life
you could make my gray skies blue.

Dad, some days I hear your voice
and turn to see your face;
Yet in my turning...it seems
the sound has been erased.

Dad, who will I turn to for answers
when life does not make sense;
Who will be there to hold me close
when the pieces just don't fit.

Oh, Dad, if I could turn back time
and once more hear your voice;
I'd tell you that out of all the dads
you would still be my choice.

Please always know I love you
and no one can take your place;
Years may come and go
but your memory will never be erased.

Today, Jesus, as You are listening
in your home above;
Would you go and find my dad
and give him all my love.



"I LOVE YOU DADDY & HAPPY BIRTHDAY"......

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROBBIE

Today is my brother birthday, he is 43. One of my favorite memories of us growing up was us measuring to see who reach the air conditioner first, I did even though he was 4 year older then me he was short little fellow, then one day he went to bed and woke up taller then me. He’s now 6' tall and I’m 5'2. Robbie is a great big brother; I have to say all three of my brother is pretty wonderful.

I hope you have a wonderful birthday, Robbie.

WHAT KIND OF COFFEE ARE YOU?

THE WOODLAND WORD, had this coffee quiz on her blog. I thought it was neat and wanted to share with my friends.

SECOND WEEK OF SCHOOL & LABOR DAY WEEKEND UPDATE

I can tell my kids are in school. Steven has been sick the whole time, he has missed two days already and Stephanie has missed one. Other then being sick, they are loving school. Stephanie friend is Gwen and Steven friend is Aaron. On 30th of August they went to Chapel for the first time, Steven was scared. He turned white as a sheet and the lip came out, they teacher saw the look fast and sat him with his sister. He was ok then. They go to chapel every Wednesday, we will see how tomorrow goes. Thursday the 31st the measured and weighed all the kids in the class, Steven is the biggest boy in the class. Today they brought a memory book home of all their classmates and teachers pictures. They couldn't wait to show us their friend’s pictures and tell us story about each kid. I really enjoyed listen to them.

We had a pretty good Labor Day weekend; it rained two of the 3 day weekend. We went to my brothers (Robbie) house on Saturday night for a cook-out. After we ate, my nephew (Jesse) got his BB gun out, and they had a target contest. I think Steven wanted to shot the gun, but he was too scared. Sunday we went to Salem Lake, to feed the Geese and Ducks, and then on Monday we pretty much stayed home and watched movies.
