We are so lucky that no one right now is sick. YEAH!!!
This weekend has been fun. Landon came home on Friday night. Took me forever to get all the kids settled into bed by 11:30pm. Saturday we slept in and then we came to Granny's . Everyone loves to come to Grannys.
The kids cleaned house. Part of Good Samaritan. And they actually did a good job. I was so proud of them. We went home last night and the kids were running and playing in the house. And all of a sudden I heard Landon screaming and I mean screaming. I knew that he was hurt. When I got to him blood was coming out of his foot everywhere. And there was no calming him down. At first I thought he had stepped on the plug to my vaccum until he finally calmed down enough to show me he stepped on a peice of glass. Which by the way was sharp and had blood on the point where it went into his foot. I had to hold him down just to put some antiseptic was on it. Then he did the bandaid. Well needless to say he wanted Mommy to keep the glass that he stepped on so out came the baby book and in went the peice of glass.
Well , Finally they all got there baths and off to bed it was while I rearranged my furniture. Got in the bed late.
Sunday morning. we all get up and get dressed well on the way to church Landon desides he doesn't wanna go with me he wants to go with his Daddy because it more fun he says. His dad goes to the baptist church and they have a childrens church there where the kids dance and run and play and listen to music. So he doesn't get he has to go to class and sit and listen to David preach.
He will get there. Ryan of course fell asleep in church like he always seems to do and Alana had to go sit with Aunt Phyliss. Who she absoulutly adores.
Well this raps up my little weekend.
Hope everyone has a great week. I will blog agian soon.

My Sunday

Well, first we got up thought i would have a good day. We went to church. Which by the way Marty had a great lesson Sunday morning. After church we headed home. Eugene was supposed to be getting up to go to Tannihill with us for landon's Team Party. Well he didn't make it up and I couldn't wait anymore. So off me and the kids got to meet Landon and Falon at Milos. Landon and Ryan wanted to ride with there mommy while alana insisted on rididng with Falon. Which I had no problem with. Well, we got all the way to Tannihill where you go through the gate. I go to pick up my drink and Guess what!!!! It spills all over me. So I jump out the car and Falon pulls beside me .,.... Coke need I say everywhere. Landons couches were all stopping to admire my wet pants. So all the kids went on in with Falon while I drove back to Ross's to buy a pair of pants. It was freezing outside and of couse they called Landons team last.... Dreadfull. Anyway me and the kids headed to McDonalds where I ordered them chicken nuggets , fries and icecream. We got maybe 2 miles up the road and I spilled my coke on me agian., needless to say it was jutst not my day.

Yesterday me and my mom went over to the cemetary. Something that we haven't done in a while. My dads grave looked great I had noticed that the grass was finally growing on it. It has been dead there for nearly 14 years,. Long story will have to write about it later. They had finally got down my great grandfathers marker which looks great. We basically have our won little nabprs section of the cemetery. Up in the mosonics at Crestview. Me my brother and sister went and put our names on the plots that are surronding our daddy. I think in total we bought 8 plots. Anyway.
After that we went in that store super dollar. Its where the old food world on adamsville used to be .... It is awesome. They had some really good deals on food and on other things I bought a gourgous picture frame in there for $1.00..... Well anyway. We have had a really great week. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Updates on our life!!!

Well, Lets see where do I start in our ever so mixed up world. We have been out serching far and wide for a home. Hopefully its in the makings. We will see. So I want elaberate on that to much because it seems that everytime I get excited about something it always messes up.
This weekend was so far so good. Much needed rest on some days. On Wensday Gayla , Kevin and kids came down. Oh how I dreded this....:) Not really but let me get on with my story. Kevin wanted me to help him change the tires off his brothers truck and put them onto Gayla's car.... Why I said yes I will never now. Okay first .... We strted at 8pm and we wern't finished unitl 11:30 pm... While Kevin is foling with his brothers jack I already had Gaylas up and the tire off on the front. Finally he got it working and handed me one tire. We put the 2 driver fronts on and procided to the back. I was going pretty fast I guess I jsut had a better jack. Anyway. I had the back of his brothers jacked up while he was trying to loosen the lugs on the front next thing that I hears was a big boom. The jack had broken and there went the truck. Lucky for us we were not under it. Anyway. We fixed it. Got all done. Needless to say I was so greasy from head to toe, But I loved it. I was so tired I went right to bed at like 4:30 in the morning after washing clothes because Gayla forgot to pack Kevin more clothes. Boy was I tired the next day. Gayla started home got to the church ands had to come back. A light came on that said TIre Manual Default. AGHHHH... I called the dealership that told me that she didn't need to drive until the tires were back on her car that were the origianals. I was soooo mad. So here I go Jacked up all 4 tires took them off and rested it on concret blocks not knowing that I should of put them on the side where the 2 wholes are until I was finished. Common since to me was to put them on the solid side. My cousin told me just to be caredful becuase those blocks could break and the car could land on me. When Kevin got here we started on his vehicle getting all the tires off. By the time we were done I was so tired my back was aching and Of course agian I was greasy from head to toe.....:)
I have never been so tired and by back hurting since I was in Labor. Grant you two years ago. It fixed the problem and the next day Gayla and the kids were on there way.
No one can say I can't work like a man. I can overcome most anything. Thanks Kevin I needed all that work:)
Friday my hubby finally got an extra day off. We had to go pay some bills and then we came in took a nap with the kids and went to eat at jim an nicks> By the was was great. I ate a bbq plate my hubby had ribs and the kids had chicken and a burger. Then back home for bed .... Oh how I loved to crawl into bed.
Saturday < Melissa and her girls came down I did Melissa and Shayla's nails. They loved them I was pleased. Then we napped after I got my hubby off to work.
Sunday was church. My babies just love going to class. We had a great Sunday school lesson we are studying in the book of Joshua. Paul is a great teacher.
David had a great lesson and props to Casey Blakenship he always prays a real sincere heartfelt prayer. It really touches you... Brother Billy Courington came forward he is a great man. I love him to death there is never a dull moment when he is around. He brought Alana and Ryan some jigsaw books to church which they really have enjoyed. He is in my prayers and so is Mary. She is a wonderful women and an insperation to me. We came home and ate dinner it was wonderful. Nap time and back to church agian for singing night ... We had a great singing night.

My updates!!!

Hey everyone. I know its been a few but I decided to post something new...
Anyway.. Update on my gradmother she is doing maybe a little better. I took her for an Mri on Friday. luckly she made it throught the whole procedure. Haven't heard anything from the doctor yet about the results. I am hopeing that we will Monday. She has sleep alot the past 2 days because she had to be sedated for the MRI. So everyone please just keep her in your prayers.
Our house.... Well thats a good one. It didn't go through. Once agian I am disappointed. We payed the deposit.... We cleaned it... We even moved some stuff in... Just to get the call that she was selling it. I was so upset I cried all night. We were so excited to be moving into our own place.... Eugene actually cleaned I was very suprised. My kids were even helping move things in and clean. But I guess that God knows what he is doing. There is a reason that things didn't work out I just wish that I knew why.
I talked to my in laws they are telling us that they will sell us some land in Oak Grove at a really good price. And I have talked to a guy at Clayton homes that thinks he can get us approved so everyone please keep your fingers crossed , that we will have some good news on Monday when we go to Moody to meet with Gary.
The situation with Landon.... Its still there. I have contacted my attorney and hope to have something good come out of it. Its a real touchy subject with me. And I miss my baby so much.Today was his first football game Didn't hear a word from any of them .... Figures. I know when the games are just because alana was going to cheer this year but we decided to wait see ing how things just haven't been going good . But they didn't know the times. And Carlos doesn't bother to call and tell me anything. So keep me in your prayers about that situation also. I really need it.
Me and Alana have been working on her letters and numbers this week. She is doing well. Having some trouble with the letter G but all in all she is coming right along. She learns so well. She makes me so proud of her on a daily bases. She is so thoughtfuul and worries about everything.
She has been begging me for a Hannah Momtana purse for o i guess 2 weeks now and Thursday she got her purse. Let me tell you that child has not let that purse out of her sight. She loves it..... Its so funny because her brother will try to get it and she gets so mad at him.
Eugene is still working the crazy shift of 4 to 2... I really dont like it. The money is good but I miss seeing my husband. We never get to see him, Most weeks he is working 7 days a week. Maybe he will get moved to another shift soon.
Hope that everyone has a great week ahead.
I know that Teal and Chad will be having there baby this coming week so good luck to them. I know that she will be a blessing.
O and Congrats to our friends Kelly and Sherlock on the birth of there baby girl
Riley Kate born last Sat weighing in at 6lbs 15.oz

Just another post....

I hope that everyones week is going great. I am still having some issues with getting to see my baby boy Landon.... He was my first born the one that I experienced alot with... And the one that took my heart away. its hard for me because he is my baby and yet I can't be a part of all the important things that he is doing.... My other two kids they don't understand why all this is happening why they can't see there big brother everyday. Just like Landon doesn't understand why he can't be with us everyday. I am prayoing about the situation I hope that everyone will keep me and my family in your prayers also. I need all that I can get right now.
Well, Eugene is working like 12 hours shifts so of course we never see him . I miss him because we used to get to do things together.... Now we may see him 30 minutes and off to work he has to go agian. I love him so much and its difficult when I never get to talk to him. I don't talk to him from 2:30 until 5:00 or when ever he gets off when he gets home I am asleep and when we get up he is still asleep. So its just a tough one ... But hopefully all will work out soon. I need my hubby back.
My grandmother has been in alot of pain the past couple of days. She can hardly walk or stand for any length of time without almost being in tears with the pain. I feel so sorry for her because you can tell she is hurting and the doctors want give her any strong pain med. And she doesn't want to get hooked on anything ethier so she is just stuck right now between a rock and a hard place. I think that her doc is supposed to be trying to get her into physical therapy which will help some we are hoping . As of now though she hasn't heard anything else about it. Be thinking about her please and pray that she will get to feeling better.
I just wanted to say that I love Kim Kelesy to death.... She is a really great women and a good friend. I can talk to her about anything and she gives me godly advice. I am thankful so much for her and wish that there were more people out there like her. We all need to look at her as an example. She is a great person. Thanks alot Kim....
Well, I am going Ill write maybe tonight , Gotta go Grocery Shopping... YEah for me..
Well everyone take care and may God Bless you.

Gambling is an Addiction

Just some thoughts. I know that Gambling is a SIN most people do that are a Christian or that were raised in the church. There are so many Bing places up 78hwy toward Jasper. Numerous Homes that have Machines in them and even gas stations that cops frequently go too. The law was passed to ban gambling in Jefferson County but yet they are still around. I think that it is crazy to go to a place put $5,$10,$15$20,$50 and $100 sometimes even more to some people. Into a machine and not get anything in return. The people that are at the places do they not realize that they are taking away from thereselves , and lot a lone thier families. It makes my blood boil. Do you really think they care at all about anything if they can take a hard earned pay check and throw it all away in just a few hours of sitting in front of a machine or playing Bingo? Its rediculous. Really they probley are not even paying thier bills which is sad to see that they would rather work all day or all night and loose there houses , cars, and families. For what NOTHING!!!!
Well, I know of some people that are frequant gambles yeah they pay there bills to a point but let the important things go. They take away from there children , husbands, wives and thereselves. And they even know that it is wrong but continue to gamble. It literally makes me sick. They would rather stand up and lie then to tell the truth. And they borrow money from everyone just to go play thinking all in all that they are going to win big. But yeah maybe they win big every once in a while but , think of all they have lost trying to win that Jackpot of maybe $1500 to $3000. They really probley lost $5000. Thats sad isn't it ? And they want listen to anyone about anything . They all think they have it under control. When from the outside looking in they don't. Maybe deep down inside they know it too.
There are actual places that have Gamblers Annonymus. It is an addiction just like taking drugs. And I have learned that Drugs its all a mind thing. Your mind is telling you you can't live without it. Just like with gambling your mind is telling you just one more time this will be my lucky day. The DEVIL wins in people that let there minds tell them what to do even though they know right from wrong. Gambling will ruin lives and I hate to see it. I hope that everyone that reads this will take a moment of there time to say a prayer for all those out there that are gambling everything they have away . Pray that God will give them the strength to come back to him and live a Christian life. Pray please. Because everytime I go by all the Bingo places and the stores and houses that are gambling I say a prayer for God to help everyone there. So remember it is an addiction and if you know someone that is in this situation they need help they will never be able to do it alone .

Its been a while so hear it goes

Its sunday

Me and mom went to Big Lots Friday in Adamsville and we found alot of great clearance sales. We had a great day together. Days that we spend together like that are so special and they are days that we will nethier one ever forget. Anyway. Today Is sunday so we woke up and went to church. David had a really good lesson and the real and the unreal ways of the church and of for instance money. The kids were pretty good in church they are getting better everytime.

Good news to a point

I talked to Carlos this morning and the trial is set to begin for the murder of Tereasa and Hershal this Wensday morning. It has been long awaiting and I am so glad to hear that it is finally under way. I know that it will be tough for everyone involved. But I know with God they will all make it. So please keep the Jordan, Florence, and Russell family all in your prayers this up coming week ......... Thank you for reading./.....

FINALLY EUGENE GOT A JOB!!!!!!!!

I was so happy Eugene has gotten a really good job at a strip mines in Adger, Sorry I can't remember the name of it. ....... Anyway he will be starting This coming up Monday. Yeah.....
He goes Saturday to show them he knows how to run all the equipment and then he will know what his pay will be we are hoping nothing lower than 15 an hour. That would be great and he will be getting raises often. So all s going great. The only thing that I do not like is that he will be working from 4 in the evening until 2 in the morning. But we will manage. We will be moving in our house hopefully this coming week which is great too. So just wanted to let all of you know he found a job and we got our house.

July 115th ,2007

Well I know its not july 15th 2007. But this is one day that I will never forget. I guess I recived the call about 4:50 on July the 16th. Which was on a Monday last year. One that I never wanted to hear. It was my grandmother telling me a husband and wife had been murdered in there home not even 1 mile from my home. And then she asked me could it of been Hershel and Tereasa. Which by the way is my oldest son Landons Favorite Aunt and Uncle. I said no they would have already called me. Well I hung up with my grandmother to call to find out. Well there was no answer at anyones house. Then the phone rang it was my grandmother in shock saying Amber it was them . Well my heart just broke because they kept Landon alot. And no one had called and I didn't even know where he was. Finally Falon called me back and told me what was going on and that she was going to have her mom bring Landon to me but no one wanted him to know right then what was going on. Which was fine. I was just so happy to put my arms around my baby. It was a terrible terrible murder. A family friend and the Florences were just having argumnets and disagreements . Well this man who I will not name had already threatened Hershel at a gas station well the cops were called a report was made and it did no good because the DA would not give them the type of warrent that was needed to protect this man. So 3 days later death came knocking at there door and he shot and killed hershal and tereasa Florence and i can say that teresa was an outstanding women and Christian. And my Son loved them so much.
Tuesday :
It was just a regular day we went grocery shopping and tried to make everything as normal for Landon as we could.
Wensday: July 18th , 2007 The worst call of my entire life ..... A call I replay in my head and a call I was not prepared for and still wish it would of never came. I guess it was about 1:00pm I was heading to take Landon to his Dads and it was the day that they had burried Teresa . I was coming aound the curve at oak grove high school when my cell phone rang. It was my grandmother and of couse I didn't have much service but I could tell she was crying I kept saying mom what is wrong what is wrong. And she started screaming Michelle is dead Michelle is dead and we don't know where the boys are. My heart sunk like a ship and i just started screaming your lying to me it not true and I hung up the phone and called Michelles cell phone begging her to call me that they were lying to me that she couldn't be dead. I had talked to her the night before and we had made plans to get together that weekend. I called my grandmother back to tell her she had to be lying to me. And she wasn't lying to me. I called my mother n law and she agreed to watch alana and Ryan. I got to Carlos and no one was there and I called his Moms and they said he was at his gradparents and was on his way back and its just right up the hill anyway. Well when I pulled up Falon which is Carlos' wife and his sister met me at the car and i just fell on the ground cying and asking them what is happening to our families. By that time Carlos his mom and his brother n law came up and were wondering what was going on and they told them and they could not belive it. Falon had just talked to her the week before about mary kay maycup she had ordered from her. It was a shock. Tammy Falon and April took me to my mother n laws and then home and offered to drive me to the hospital but Eugene was going with me. I go t to the hospital and I found out that Ethan was okay just a little Bruising and that Dalton had a cut on his head which he had to have stiches and a broken nose. He was coughing up blood and yet still was brave enough to tell me Aunt Amber the doctors said that it was good for me to do this. I rember looking at him and he was so brave . He never stopped being brave. Even though he knew his mommy was gone. I read him a brave lion story and just sat with him and talked to him. My grandmother stayed the whole night with him. While my Brother Bryant took Ethan home with him to his Daddys. Bryant had finally fould the women he truly loved. At times I have been so mad at her because she was driving so fast. Her accident was horific. She was going 90+ and hit one 18 wheeler then she was ejected out of the car and a 2nd 18 wheeler ran over her. I loved her more than a sister n law, but as a true best friend and real sister. She really meant alot to me even though we would have our problems we always worked through them and stayed close. I miss her so much . And It is so hard to look at my brother because he is greiving so m,uch and it has been a year but that pain is still just as great as the day that she passed. She was bueatiful. Loving and generous. No one that was close to her can look aound there home and not see something almost in every room and for me it was everyroom, that she gave them. When she would buy things it was 2 or 8 of everything. She loved giving.
Everyone that is reading this please keep Bryant Nabors and Dalton and Ethan Nabors in your prayers everyday they need it more that you will ever know.

I have not posted in a while so here it goes

Life has been a little hektick lately. My last post was about my great-grandfather. Well that situation still bothers me everyday. And then I find out someone broke into my cousins house that followed him from our Mamaws then turned around and broke into my Papaws building. Which I was really upset and angry because i could not see why someone would do that not even 2 weeks after he passed. To me its sorry. Drugs cause people to do some crazy things. Then me and Eugene have been looking for a house. Which we got one finally. Its in concord and in a wonderful sub division. We will be in hopefully August 1st. At least we are keeping our fingers crossed. Anyway. I went back to the doctor today. And I got a good report which I am so thankful for. On another note Eugene is still looking for a better job. And I sure hope he finds one sooner than later. Because it is a struggle everyday. I hope my post finds everyone well.
Have a great rest of the week .
Loves,
Amber

My Great Grandfather

Well , Thursday I had recived a letter from my great gradmother, Telling me she wanted me to come see her and bring my babies and that my Papaw was turning 89 Thursday the 19th of June. Well we were heading to camp when I recived the letter so I didn't think to call ... But I was telling my husband that I wanted to go see them the following week. Well Monday I had plans on coming back from the doctor and decided I was going to get the kids and my nephews and take them to see Mam-maw and papaw. well when I got home thats when I heard the news that my Papaw had shot and killed himself at the age of 89 years old. I do not know what happened or why he did this . It was a shock to alot of people. He called 911 before he did it and told them he was going to kill himself and that his wife was in the bed asleep. I love my Papaw. I know that I didn't go see them like I should have. But, I know that he knew how much he meant to me. We burried him today and he is there with my daddy well 1 space above and over from my daddy. So it made it even harder and brought back alot of memories.

Surgery Update

Well, I had my surgery. It went really well. I hurt ALOT ,but I made it. I have had very little trouble. Which I am very thankful for. My post op appointment went really well. He did tell me to take it a little bit easier than I have. And that my cervics were sent off for testing and he had the results which were not good. He said that my cervics were in stage 3 pre cancer. So he was so glad that we did the surgery when we did because the cancer could of spread. But all is well with me on my surgery note. I will go back to the doctor in 3 weeks. so will update more then. thanks to everyone that kept me in your hearts and prayers.

Dalton and Ethans Trip to there Mommys Grave...

Well it was the fist time they had been back to their Mom's Grave since the funeral. Dalton would always rufuse to go. But , we had V.B.S all last week and me and Mom had the Boys . So I would just keep trying to talk to Dalton about his Mom. He finally warmed up to talking to me about it. Well the last night of V.b.s was Thursday and I was in the kitchen talking to mom about taking Ethans stepping stone that he made out there to her grave and fixing it for her. And Dalton over heard me and asked me what I was talking about. I told him and he asked if he could go. And of course we said yes. The next Morning when he woke up he wanted to know when we were going. So we all got ready and left. We met her parents Noni and Popi there so that they would not miss out on this. First Dalton dug the dirt and I placed the stone in , He had brought some things from V.B.S and put it our there from him and Ethan. Then he kneeled down and read her stone. It was amazing how great he did. It was really touching because he has just been really cold about talking about MIchelle at all. And when we would talk about her he would walk away. or say I don't want to talk about it. I think that it really sone him alot of good. And I hope that he will continue to go and take things to put on her grave. Dalton is such a brave little boy. That really just doesn;t understand why all of this has happened to him and his brother and Daddy. But he is getting lots better. I love those boys to death. I am so glad that I can see them grow up . Because I know that her memory will live on through them. Now as for Bryant its still really hard and he is struggling with greif everyday. He blames GOd and his self. But he can;t do that because it wasn't God's Falut that this happened. And neither was it his. There is alot of factors. But GOd is the only one that is going to be able to help him through this. And I hope that one day he will see that. So please if you are reading my blog keep him in your prayers.

Landon's Preschool Graduation

Today, My little bot graduated from preschool. He was so adorable when we got there he was all dected out in his cap and gown with his white shit kakies and a tie. I cried when i seen him . because I knew that he was really growing up. He was such a big boy. He walked with his head high and a big grin on his face. My baby growing up going in to Kindergarden wasn't easy. His teachers were introduced. Then they all sang the color song and Mommy I brought you a Bumblebee which by the way was adorable. Then the principle got up and her speech really got to me. Because as all of you know me and landons dad are no longer together and he has a step mom and a step father. But in her speech she was talking about the feelings that you had when you first found out that you were pregnet and all the plans that you had for that little baby that was growing inside of you. How that you can never let go of the dreams that you have for them. How as parents we are to teach our children how much we love them and cherish them and that they should always know that there parents love them. It was just heart wrenching because I wish that Landon had a chance to at least know that me and his Daddy loved each other. Anyway after the speech they had a slideshow. which of course was cute and funny. then when it \was over my baby ran to me and gave me the biggest huge ever and asked me Mommy are you proud of me which of course I was. He just stayed right there with me until everyone left. My little angel is growing up and I don't ever want to miss a thing.

Blah day

today, has been one of those days.That you just didn't want to get out of bed. I had a really bad headache all day yesterday and then agian today. It finally let up. And me and the kids went riding on my cousins 4 wheeler. It was fun. I would only take 1 at a time for safety reasons and of course they were both mad because it was the others turn. Will write more later hope everyone had a good day.

Mothers Day...

Well today has been a great day. First we all went to church which was really uplifitng just to be serving our Lord. Then we went out to eat at Habonaros. It was good. My kids made me some really cute stuff. And they were so proud of there selves.
I have been just putting pictures on here today. Just to show off my little family. I hope that everyone had a great mothers day. Just a little update. Alana is feeling so much better the last few days. She still complains some but its not too bad. That is a good thing too. I go back to the doctor tommrrow to find out if I am goin to have to have surgery on my hand well finger. I hope that I will get some good news. And of all days tommrrow Alana is turning 4 . All that she has asked for is a Barbie Bicylce. I can't beleive that she is going to be 4 it seems like just yesterday I was rocking her to sleep. Now she is so independent she doesn't want me to bathe her , wash or dry her hair., Dress her nothing ..... She can do it all no matter what the task she never gives up. Even when she is arguing with someone . You better look out because that child is not going to stop. And oh Yes I have heard Your paying for your raising now, and she is just like you. One thing that i have learned is if you do not want anything told you better not talk in front of alana shes miss big mouth. Ok Happy Mothers Day

Love

I never really new how much I could love my husband.He is truly the best thing that has ever happened to me. Sure we have had our rough times but we always pull through everything together. And lord knows we have been through alot. I was so happy a few Sundays ago when we both rededicated our lives to God. it made both of us feel so good to know that we were in Gods will. Our marriage is really blessed. And both of us have great support from our Familys. Which is agreat Blessing. Today we took the kids to the park and it was so much fun. We laughed so much watching our kids play. We even joined in on the playing which was lots of fun. I love seeing my husbands smiling face and the greatest feeling is waking up every morning beside, My love, My rock and my protector.

Mommys little hunter!

These are my angels Ryan , Landon and Alana. They make me smile when I feel bad. Boy , can they come up with some stuff to say. Alana you can't say anything in front of her unless you want everyone to know. Landon hes the oldest so he takes care of his younger brother and sister. Ryan hes just plain silly. He learned to day I love you the other day and it was so sweet. They are my little rugg rats.....

Im always going to be a daddys girl !!!!

If tears could build a stairway
If tears could build a stariway
and memories a lane.
I would walk right up to heaven
and bring you babck agian.
No fairwell words were spoken.
no time to say Goodbye.
You were gone before I knew it
and only God knows why.
My heart still aches with sadness
and secret tears still flow.
What it meant to love you
No one can ever know.
But now I know you want me
to mourn for you no more.
To remember all the happy times
life still has much in store.
Since youll never be forgotten
I pledge to you today.
A hollowed place within my heart
Is where youll always stay.

In loving memory of my Daddy 1964-1995
