Happy Birthday, Heather!

Heather,

Today is your birthday!!! You are old! Yep, you are! (I'm sure everyone reading this thinks I'm so mean, but I do recall you saying that to me this year!!!)

Hey, old is a good thing! You can be bitchy and blame it on your age. You can "forget" to do something you really don't want to do and blame it on your age. You can laugh at the youth and bad taste of others and thank God you are past that! You can play really mean jokes on people and blame it on a teenager because you OBVIOUSLY are too mature to do "something like that"! You are comfortable with who you are and don't need to prove yourself. I could go on and on, but you get the idea!

I know this past year has been the worst of your life. If I could take away all your pain, I would. I know it feels like God is pushing you beyond all that you can handle, but you have discovered how very strong you are and who your real friends are! It's a horrible way to learn these things, but we can't have a say in how these things happen. You are starting to find your new way and we are so proud of you!

You are a wonderful "Mother" (please add disgusted tone and eye roll), amazing sister, fantastic friend, loving daughter, wacky aunt, and devious partner-in-crime!!! We all love you!!!! Have a happy birthday and let's break a few laws soon (and blame it on someone else)!!!


I'm always here for you...

Love Always,
S

Sad News

Heather's mom died peacefully at home last night. She went so quickly that only Dad and the Hospice nurses were there. The rest of the family arrived within minutes of being called, but weren't quick enough. Please keep Heather, Ian, Norman and the rest of the family in your thoughts and prayers.

Computer Problems

Having computer issues. Posting is a problem. Computer virus sucks! The virus ate most of my program defaults and the computer now can't remember them so I have to reset everything each time I open a program. It won't let me uninstall anything either! I'm so frustrated!!!!! I'm using Cullen's laptop to post this. I will try to load photos on his computer later (after he and his best friend Jacob finish the school projects they are working on). I have TONS of photos on two different cameras! Gotta run! The boys need to get back to work!
