Six Years Ago Today.

My Dearest Liam. Happy Birthday to you. Today you would of been 6 years old. I remember the day I held you in my arms and telling myself how blessed Rudy & I are just to be able to see and hold you before they took you away. Our beautiful little Angel. You touched so many of us and we will never forget you. I think of you everyday and wonder what you are doing in heaven are you playing with Miss Molly and sitting on your Opa Don's Lap?

Every time I see Daddy, Mommy and  your Brothers & sister I wonder who you would of looked like the most. I know you would of made a great big brother to kieran, Haydan & Presley. But this I know. You are always watching over them and being Mommy & Daddys eyes when they are not around.
I love you Liam and can't wait to see you again. Your Auntie Norma

So Far this I know

I've learned that it's taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.

I've learned that you can keep going long after you can't.

I've learned that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down, will be the ones to help you get back up.

I've learned that we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.

I've learned that no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.

I've learned that even when you think you have no more to give, when a family/friend cries out to you, you will find the strength to help.

I've learned that credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.

I've learned that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I've learned that either you control your attitude or it controls you.

I've learned that two people can look at the same thing and see something totally different.

I've learned -
that there are people who love you dearly,
but just don't know how to show it.

I've learned -
that it takes years to build up trust,
and only seconds to destroy it.

I've learned that sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.

I've learned that no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief.

I've learned that heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.

I've learned that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've learned from them, and less to do with how many years you have lived. 

Missing our baby girl Molly

Not one day goes by that we don't think of our wonderful dog Molly. God we miss her so much! Three year ago today we had Molly put down.

 I am re-posting my original post I did 2 years ago..........................

I am very sad at the moment just thinking only if the triplets were here a year ago maybe our Molly would still be with us. You see Molly died of depression and sadness when the Triplets left back to Germany last year. Molly believed the Triplets were her litter so when the Triplets left Molly stopped eating and just wanted to sleep. Below is a short video I made of our baby girl molly and I attached an old post I did last year about Molly.

A few days before we made the hard decision of putting our sweet Molly down we spend every second with her and video special moments with her telling her how much we love her and thanked her for being such a great dog to us.  

Molly with her Triplets before they all left to Germany ......................................................................   Post about Our Molly .................................................................. November 26, 2006 .................................................................. Our Baby girl Molly passed away on December 26, 2006 at 2:05pm. As the months went by and seeing her fade away to bones and not getting any better, we all came to that very hard decision of putting her down. She went very quickly as it only took 5 seconds. We spent our last Christmas with Molly just loving her and telling her how much we loved her and how lucky we where to have her in our life.

BITCHOLOGY

BITCHOLOGY 

 When I stand up for
myself and my beliefs,
they call me a 
bitch. 

When I stand up for
those I love,
they call me a
bitch. 

When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts or 
do things my own way, they call me a
bitch. 

Being a Bitch
means I won't compromise what's
in my heart. It means I live my life "MY Way."
It means I won't allow anyone to step on me. 

When I refuse to tolerate injustice and
speak against it, I am defined as a 
 bitch. 

The same thing happens when I take time for myself instead of being everyone's maid, or when I act a little selfish. 

It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am and won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I 'should' be.


And if that makes me a  bitch. so be it!
