13 now a teenager


Wow can you believe she is now 13! I really have to stop blinking. Seems like yesterday she was just learning to walk. Time is going by. I remember thinking I would never grow up. Oh how I wanted to be a grown up when I was in my teens..... how I laugh at myself sometimes!
Well she turned 13 and Mike and I are speechless. She had a party at a new place where you make a video and a music cd. Sarah had fun and so did her friends. Everyone got to take a picture of themselves and the video and music cd's home in thier goody bags! Of course she had 4 boys there. It was funny how they kept totally separate from the girls. Daddy was happy! I just smile because I know what is coming next! Life is funny. Sarah is excited that she got a Zune for her birthday. I have already downloaded a few songs for her. I guess I should show her how to do it so I don't have too. Well from her friends she got alot of clothes. So I guess she will be wearing them for a little while. She even wanted to wear them to go to church today. I told her no. Easter and Jeans I don't think so. She can wear them next week. I have to say I think she chose a nice group of girls to invite. (boys too). They all seemed to have fun and the one quite girl sang her heart out! Well enough for now.

Alot has happened in the last two months. First let me start with Sarah and her DEBUT singing. She is in a class where they learn from music and they put show on. She loves singing (I have no idea where she got that just kidding). I knew she could sing but I didn't really know she could really sing. I was sitting in the audience that first night of the show all proud but when she got up to sing the last song of the night I was BLOWN AWAY! She had me speechless. I hope she makes you speechless as well. This class is really a nice class. She has alot of friends in the class. I have been given glances into the woman Sarah is becoming and it takes my breath away. Wow is all I can say! It doesn't look like the video is going to work tonight so I will have to do it tom. after I get home from work. Wish it would save! I was going to put up one of Noah as well but I guess I will have to do it tom as well. He got to sing at Church with the Adult choir. He sang Away in a Manger verses 1 ...

Cheering 101

I hope you enjoyed the video. I went to Sarah's game this past Saturday to watch her cheer. She did good and you could hear her even when she turned around. This being her first year cheering for football she seems very interested in it. Who knows she might just be a fan soon! Okay Uncles.... she doesn't have one team she likes yet, so recruit her for your team. Uncle Teddy I think she Might be leaning to the Cowboys because her friend likes them. You just never know!

Letters from the Heart

How do I say goodbye to my mom. How can I do that and not hurt? Memories keep coming to me and I laugh or I cry mostly I cry. I cry because I didn’t write down that favorite recipe she always made when we came home. I cry because I should have had more patience with her. I cry because I won’t be able to sit and have tea with her. Ever. Never again. I cry for myself. I cry for my brothers. I cry for my children and their children. How do I make this hurt any less than it does? How do I make the tears stop flowing? Is there a way to make them stop? Maybe laughter. Maybe that is the way. Remember the good times. Remember hotdog soup. Remember frying pans knocking someone out. Remember the car rides to grandmas house. Remember the summer trips. Laughing helps but not for long. Family around me will be sure to help. Getting together and celebrating her. That will help. I now know that nothing will help. I think this hurt will last the rest of my life. I don’t want this. I want my mom....
