6.21.09


One year ago today we were 'home' celebrating my home towns Saddle Horse Holiday always celebrated over Father's Day weekend.  The kids had the privilage of throwing candy for the Opera House float and my husband drove Dad's truck for it.  The kids had a blast! 

It is fun to look back and see a 'where we were on this date XXX number of years ago!'  Our children were only 2 1/2 year old, Handsome was 25 lbs heavier, I was 50 lbs heavier (that makes a 75 lb loss between us!)  And we had no idea the pain a year from that day would hold!

6.21.10
First day of summer!
Birthday of a highschool classmate of mine (always remember June birthday b/c people born in June are just plain AWESOME!)
But also a date that I will not forget...it was the date that the foster twins were removed from our home for no reason at all but to be placed into another foster home.  It was a date I saw people from all walks of my life band together and try to fight for the girls and give them a voice.  It was a date I was scared of because I didn't know how I, my children, or my husband would react/handle the situation.  It is a date that I am impressed by the strength God gives one when having to be strong for my kiddos!  (Praise the Lord) I want to thank those of you that decided they were going to try and give Cupcake and EskiMo a voice today.  I am impressed by the number of you that took matters into your own hands and called and/or emailed the Governor of our state to try and find justice for the girls.  At this point it doesn't seem like anything happened, we may not know for a while...or ever, but know one thing!  When it comes time to be accountable for our actions, God knows that you all stepped out of yourself and did something in the best interest of two helpless little girls!  We miss them, because of what was going on I had my husband take their crib down right after he got home from work today.  I wasn't wanting to have to look at it longer than needed....it was a painful day, but a day that I truly saw how God can bring people together and give strength and comfort in a time of hurt.    Thank you again to each of you!
