    Well it has been almost a month since Cathy went Home. We are doing OK. And we are out doing things and trying to stay "normal" whatever that is???? HA HA HA!!! I went and got Adrian registered for school today now I just have to pay for the stuff he needs there. WOW! 35 dollars for a book fee. was like fifteen when I was in school. And the food program about 90 a month for milk lunch and breakfast. I suppose it could be worse, just kind of surprised me is all. I hae put in for the day off to take him on his first day and pick him up. I plan on taking a picture of him and from a friend here in Iowa I am going to have a copy printed and take it too Cathy's gravesite. I thought that was a awesome idea. I still miss her everyday and always will! But I know that she wanted me to have a life, so I am trying to do the best I can. Anyway to all of you on here Take care and when someone tells you their time is almost done; LISTEN!!!!! And spend as much time as you can with them!! It will matter more than you can imagine.

    Be at peace in Word and Deed!

    Good to hear from you Arron.
    How is Adrian holding up! I'm sure it must be hard to not have his mom around any more.
    Keeping you both in my prayers!

    Arron, thanks for stopping in {{{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}

    I think it is wonderful that you are taking the day off for the first day of school and taking pics . Cathy will be with both of you that day, as she is always with you everyday .

    I lost my mom in 1982 but everytime I see something she would have loved, it starts all over again. I miss her each and everyday. My grandma raised me as my mom was in secret service during the war years, I was 12 when I finally got to know her and she became my big sister, best friend instead of mom. You are doing a super job , I admire you. God bless & Hugs.
