Memorial Day

Certainly a good weekend, lots of chillin...

i never got a chance to share this story. You know when you have moments and you always think you would show up differently. 

A couple of years ago Amber and I went to Bill's house. He had recently bought a new Cadillac. I was pumped for him. I asked him if he would show me. With a huge smile he gladly walked me down a set of stairs to his garage. It was an awesome fall night. The garage door was open and it was just the two of us. One single light bulb overhead. I looked around and told him how awesome I thought the car was and that i was super excited for him. With such grace he shrugged it off and pressed me for specifics of my life, my career, and my only a year old marriage. All he could talk about was me, my life. It was his car i wanted to see. It was my life he wanted to know about. He had such genuine thoughts and questions, he asked them as if life depended on it. His house was full of people. He hugged me tight and told me he was proud of me... Every time i was with Bill i felt like a million bucks, i only hope to have that affect on those around me.

Phillip LaRue, thanks iTunes

I actually think Sage will do fine this fall

Who flies to St. Louis?? We do

At one point in parenthood do you look to you kids as the hope for your future? Is their future much more important than mine? Their plans supercede mine? interesting thought... you know the whole living through your kids thing. I was thinking about that when i was playing slowpitch, baseball is so much cooler, Oak will play baseball. I may currently be more exited for teeball than my softball games, odd changes. A year ago these words never existed. 

Sorry about the change, you shouldn't have to help move things, or hear those words. Ish. 

You know who you are...

Also Lovin...

Everything She represents, her devotion, drive, intensity and motivation to do everything for him, to see him through and ensure his growth, safety and love for the Lord. My words are never going to be enough. Know that...

This Kid

Suddenly 30 Rock is rather funny...

finding music you bought on ITunes that you totally forgot about

today i smelt spring for the first time, Oak will smell spring in a few years, smells like warm asphalt and baseball... you all know

Do you ever 'find' a song on Itunes and then you hear it on a TV Show and you are instantly a musical genius?

I cant drink coffee lately, very little appeal. Hopefully West Graham's finest will bring me back

One solid year, it seems it was just last week, just last month, not last year, not a year ago. Certain things seem to make it seem so fresh. 

Last night I slept with the same blanket I always did when I slept under HER roof. 

The surroundings will change, the faces will be new but we all had Sunday..

Oak loves you, Grandma

Maturity

Old Soul; people say you may have an old soul. What does that mean?

My life experiences when i was younger were somewhat limited, sheltered if you may. This however may have made me an immature seventeen. The fact that the life experience the areas associated with seventeen are ones that may slow your progression in life has made me an old 24.

Catch my drift? Does that make sense? Hear what i am saying? Catch what i am pitching? 

Josephine, the names always flowed until we settled on Josephine, we knew she knew...

You all know, we were all Josephine at one point... ha 

Yes, yes i am the manager, Yes i know you have been banking here longer than i have been alive, trust me your in good hands...

 

Happy Valentines Day Mama!!!!

Seriously, what has happen. The dramatic change in a few short months. You think you get over things and move on. Nope, not one bit. One thing about loss is that it is a wound that can easily be reopened, its like having a cut right where your finger bends. 

Loss affects everyone differently, we are all witnesses to that. 

Wasnt there time to think all this through. It seems nobody knows what everyone is feeling. disconnection
