It has been three years since I lost my mom to breast cancer. Of course, I think of her often year round, but when October 19 rolls around she is on the forefront of my mind. This year, however, she has remained at the front of my thoughts. I have been thinking a lot of how much I miss her. I think of how she would find Daniel to be quite entertaining. Danny is quite a joker and loves to make people laugh. My mom would have a ball getting him to play little jokes on his mom and dad. I also was thinking of how she would buy Miriam a WebKinz every chance she could. Miriam would give her a list on a regular basis of all the new WebKinz available and my mom would bug me to take her to the store to get her one. And I have especially been thinking a lot about her since Miriam turned eight and we prepare for her baptism this weekend. It is hard to have events like this happen in our lives and not have my parents here to share it with. Although I try and think of the bigger picture, I still wish you were here mom and dad! We miss you and think of you often.

Denise - it must be so hard to not have your Mum around. How great will it be when you meet her again, and she will be well.
I miss her too. There has got to be a good reunion going on with our family on the other side. They now have Susie,Dad,and now Uncle Steve to add to the gang. Love you Barb
