Happy Mother's Day

To My Mom

I think about you so very often. You've meant so much to me as a child, and more so now as a woman, wife and mother.

Your example has meant the world to me.

I appreciate more and more the wonderful mother you were to all five of us your children.

I am the eldest of Patricia's children. The little boy in front of me is
my brother Tim, whose birthday is today too - He was killed
January 2010 - two more sweet reasons Jesus and Heaven are so much
more special to me.

God surely blessed us with you.

I miss you, Mom.

Until I see you again in Heaven.

I'll always love you.

Blue Monday

Thoughtful Gift

My youngest brother married his sweetheart

this weekend. Prior to the ceremony my sister

gave each one of us three siblings

a very thoughtful gift. 

She gave each one of us a little blue Teddy Bear.

Earlier this year, our brother Tim was cruelly taken

from us. We have had quite a difficult year 

dealing with the separation and the legal system.

Both our parents had also passed away some years back
 - so we siblings were all we had. The sibling relationship

is one that lasts a lifetime.

My sister took some of my brother's shirts and had

a friend make these Teddy Bears. She found ribbons

with the color of the Irish flag. 
This sweet little Teddy Bear now has a home in
the Blue Room .

What a sweet gift to memorialize our love for each

other and for our brother.  

Our Teddy Bear - Tim

And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
 ⁴⁰And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
John 6:39-40
