The place where you are right now

God circled on a map for you

Wherever your eyes and arms and heart can move

against the earth and sky, Our Beloved has bowed there. Our beloved has bowed there knowing you were coming.

I could tell a priceless secret about your real worth dear pilgrim, that any unkindness to yourself, any confusion about others, will keep one from accepting the grace, the LOVE.

An angel? I think so. This curly haired little dream boat is Tessyn Lambourne.

What do you think of this little man? THis is Jonah ...the BUg Whisperer. He can snatch a dragonfly out the air with two fingers. He mastered the catch and release in our pasture this summer.

Somehow Lulu talked Jacobie into wearing her Hallowen costume. She's a prankster alone but...she and Cobie together? Well this is the result.

This is sweet baby Vance. Little red headed blur. Blue eyed cherub.

Peter Pan and Tinkerbelle!! BOston and Brooklyn in their Halloween costumes!! Brooklyn I think is a writer in the works. She lives in a world of imagination where anything is possible. Boston is a gentle little man that can snag a ball thrown to him out of the air...even his Grandma's bad throws. If I catch it when he throws it back...he claps...like it's amazing.

Necie and Turtle at witches night out!

Turtle! aka Maddox. This little baby is all about having big fun. WANT HIM TO SMILE LIKE THIS?? All you have to do is look his way! He is definitely a people person. He is the youngest of nine Grandchildren....oh and I should mention...he's a cute little thumb sucker.

This is his Mama and Papa at their wedding on Catalina Island.

Lu insisted on wearing this costume. I tried to reason with her...maybe something a little less garrish I told her. She never listens.

A future Eric Clapton? James Taylor? John Mayer? Jacobie Lambourne ...ladies and gentleman

Mollie and Emmett went to Colorado Springs this last weekend to see their friend who plays for Airforce...they also got to hang out with Anthony.

Today I went to lunch with a friend who has also lost a child. He is two years further down the path than we are. One of the things that he shared with me was that he wished he would have written his feelings down as they happened. I have so many words and emotions swirling around in my head. So many happenings and images to process. It feels to painful to sort through. One at a time I guess. One that I do not want to forget is this: When we were all surrounding Amber's bed on that last day...we were surrounding Necie like a big love blanket as she tried to understand that her Mom would soon be leaving for Heaven. Her Aunts and Uncles, Grandparents would just spontaneously say " Love you Nece!! Love you Netchia!! Love you Necie...reassuring her as she held her Mommie's hand. She would reply each time..in the saddest little voice...love you. The love in that room was so pure..so honest..I hope that I never ever forget what that felt like. Love you Am.

What I wanted most for my daughter was that she be able to soar confidently in her own sky, whatever that may be.-- Helen Claes

Here is a shot of one of the wind turbines on the Anthony's work site.

I've started a blog!!

My daughter in law Jenny Lambourne and daughter Marti Parker have started family blogs. They inspired me! I love to look at their blogs every day to keep up with what is going on in their families! We recently had our oldest grandson Jacobie come to live with us permantently. I'm sure that his Nana and Joe and brother and sister and the rest of the family will love to see the latest goings on with him!

I'm just learning so try to be patient!! I'm going to start with the pics I have on my lap top. I'm in the market for a digital camera...I should be posting regularly by next week.
