Cadbury Pink

Glass of wine and pink toenail polish. A girls night doesn't get much better than that. A good way to end my weekend. Which is wenesday and thursday. So tomorrow, everybody elses friday is my monday. Not a good thing if you ask me. But alas, whats a girl to do. If I wasn't so centered on weight loss I would add Cadbury chocolate to the mix but I settled for a "chocolate" powerbar. Kinda tasted like stale chocolate. Fresh clean sheets await me and hopefully sweet dreams. I know halfway through the night my daughter will stumble into my bed and curl up right next to me. All in all, it's a great night!

Pure Joy

Today would be Lilys 7th birthday. She left this earth quietly and peacefully. A mother couldn't ask for anything different in this situation. My heart aches to the core to see her and hold her again. I can't change what happened but I will forever honor her memory. With hope.

1 Thess. 4:13-14 / Heb. 6:9, 10:23
This is not at all how We thought it was supposed to be We had so many plans for you We had so many dreams And now you've gone away And left us with the memories of your smile And nothing we can say And nothing we can do Can take away the pain The pain of losing you, but ...
We can cry with hope We can say goodbye with hope 'Cause we know our goodbye is not the end, oh no And we can grieve with hope 'Cause we believe with hope (There's a place by God's grace) There's a place where we'll see your face again We'll see your face again
And never have I known Anything so hard to understand And never have I questioned more The wisdom of God's plan But through the cloud of tears I see the Father's smile and say well done And I imagine you Where you wanted most to be Seeing all your dreams come true 'Cause now you're home And now you're free, and ...
We have this hope as an anchor 'Cause we believe that everything God promised us is true, so ...
We wait with hope And we ache with hope We hold on with hope We let go with hope

Lily, Mommy loves you.
