We are just an hour away from
April 12, 2009.
This is Easter Sunday.
He is Risen! Hallelujah!!
This is Kim's birthday - 36 this year!
Happy Birthday - we love you so much
and are so proud of the woman and
mother you are!
We will also celebrate Steve's 31st
birthday too! Just can't say enough
great things about our only son.
We look forward to celebrating with
our family on this special day -
and hopefully will post a few pictures
in the next few days.
The grandkids will have a special
surprise tomorrow - of course they
will get a little gift from Grandma and
Grandpa - and when they look into
the back yard they will find a
trampoline! Our neighbors had one
that had hardly even been used and the
cage was still in the box. They no longer
had any use for it and thought of the kiddies!
Russ and I worked about 5 hours to
get the cage up on it! Yikes!! Hope
they enjoy this along with their
swing set!
Tomorrow also brings some reflections and
sadness. We lost my mom 10 years ago on
April 12, 1999 - Kim's 26 th birthday. Hated
calling her that morning saying Happy Birthday
honey - and this is not going to be a good one
for you. And then having to call Michelle
when she was away on a business trip. Russ
broke the news to Steve and Kari. Even after
10 years I still see things and think I have to
call Mom and tell her about this. She was a
great Mom - and I won't forget - and I
don't think my kids will ever forget the
sacrifices she made for her family!
God is good!!
