  1. Hey! Congratulations on the baby! I'll be here Thursday and Friday....still got my number?

     

     

     

    Cool! Let me know when you're ready to set up an appointment good.gif

     

    I do. It'll probably be Friday before I can get to you but I'll come by before my dr.'s appt. which is at 215. Is that okay with you?

  2. I'm taking appointments to do Child and Family Portraits

    I want to make an appt. with you but not until a little later in the year when I'm showing. How long is this deal good?? Also, you said to get with you....so what day is good for you?

  3. Thank you all, again! The ourpouring of love from this community, people who didn't even know Shannon, continues to amaze me. My brothers and sisters and I have been laughing ourselves silly all day! We even laughed at the crematorium! I can totally see her sitting there saying "are you FREAKING KIDDING me?" when the funeral director was trying to "upsell" the urns.

     

    My brother thought it would be funny to call us from her cell phone today. Naturally, that started us all wanting to text from her phone with silly messages like "I got lost on my way here", "made it in time for dinner" and "Waiting for you, hurry up". We have a sick sense of humor!

     

    Shannon and I had a "sign". Her middle name is Rose, so she always said when I smelled roses it would be her coming to say hi. Today, her best friend was shopping and a bag of rose petals fell off the shelf and landed at her feet. Maria swears Shannon was trying to trip her (Maria doesn't know about the "rose pact").

     

    Even gone, she is still making us laugh! I admire my sister SO much. If I could emulate even a small part of her, and have the love and respect so many others had for her, I will go to my grave happy.

     

    Shannon was amazing. Enough said!

     

    The rose story made me smile and cry. :wub:

  4. :( I am so sorry for the loss of such a young life. His family and friends will be in my prayers.

     

     

    I'm gonna miss that smile

    I'm gonna miss you my friend

    Even though it hurts the way it ended up

    I'd do it all again

    So play it sweet in heaven

    'Cause Thats right where you want to be

    I'm not cryin cause I feel so sorry for you

    I'm cryin for me

  5. Pubby I am sorry to tell you but you are wrong in this case... Unfortunately this lady killed her self last night... she was a huge supporter of Douglas County Schools...the last several years. She has two children one girl and one boy... one in high school and one has graduated... I am at loss at what happened to make this lady due such a thing and leave her children...

    :( How sad.

     

  6. am so glad you thought of my son 28 years old my first child its so hard to say what i feel i ask god to take me not him i wanted to go with him thoughts going through my head lord what will i do do i end now i woant to be where he is ,then the phone rang i anwser it was mike a good friend of mine ,he said rick you have 2 more sons that need you

    that need you i cant tell you what good news that meant to me it picked me up thoughts going away.I cant explain it

    but the phone just starts ringing am talking and pain coming and going and i realize I have a family that needs me too

     

     

    Your pain is felt through the words you've written and I am so sorry for your loss. My family will pray for you and your family.

  7. What a doll! My baby is 17. Trust me, you cannot spoil a 3 week old baby. Hold him tight.

     

    The days may drag by

    But the years fly :wub:

     

     

    Everything you wrote certainly hits home for me! I remember those days with a three week old and how it seemed to take DAYS to get through one night. lol. However, looking back, it went by so, so fast! My "baby" will be 4 this year. All of the older women in my family said I'd spoil her if I held her too much. That never made sense to me because I knew that an infant didn't have the reasoning skills to work that one out so I rarely put her down except to sleep.

     

    Your little one is absolutely precious. I know you're enjoying this time as a new mommy. :wub:

  8. This note was first post on LL's Thread About Ashton. I am placing it here also for those that receive updates from this Thread.

    God bless,

    :wub: Denise

     

    Dear friends and family,

     

    As usual, your prayers and love for our family has been so over-whelming and at the same time comforting. I have sat here looking at the screen trying to put into words what my heart is saying. So please bare with me as I try.

     

    The Nana in me screams "Thieffffffffffffffff!!!!." My heart cries, "Noooo, please God, not yet, I am not ready." As I selfishly cry in self pity for the loss of our sweet lil man, God whispers to me that Ashton is happy, he is at home. I have no doubt of this. My boys were probably the ones making all the noise that sounded like thunder today. (It was a sound I grew familiar with when they raced through the house.) I know the skies let go their tears of joy. And still, God had us in his arms.

     

    Please join us in celebration of the life each of us shared with Ashton. Although he was young, our lives have been so blessed in his love. It has been a pleasure to share his journey with you. I hope God blesses each and every soul that he has in some way touched. We want to thank you for each prayer and thought you have had for his health. I can give you no words to soothe your aching hearts. I know you also feel the shock that has rocked our home today.

     

    Ashton finished his journey today. But we are still here slowly making our way through ours. Your words give us comfort that our message to love you little ones more has been heard. There are so many people that Ashton loved so very much. Children and adults. Our daughter Tamsen is reeling in shock at the loss of her youngest. Ashton thrilled at hearing her voice. No matter his love for his Nana and Papa, there was no one like his Momma.

     

    My prayer tonight is that you too feel the love of your loved ones surround you like a warm, comforting breeze. Breathe it in and don't forget to tell them that you love them. Don't forget to hug your little ones and tell them how special they are. And give them and extra squeeze for me?

     

    God bless,

    Denise

     

    Denise, Phillip and Tamsen

     

    Denise,

     

    Your strength through everything amazes me. I'm trying to get through this without crying so that I can see, but it's not happening. I just can't imagine what you're feeling right now. I do want you to know that you are in my heart and my prayers. Ashton forever impacted my life. He taught me just how precious and fragile life is. I will forever remember those big, gorgeous eyes. They were the most beautiful eyes I'd ever seen and I remember coming home and telling my husband (and everyone else that I know) how incredible they were, how adorable he was, and how strong you and Papa are. I fell in love with your family the moment I walked into your house the first time. Right now, there's such an overwhelming feeling inside me to make it all better and I know that I can't. I'm sorry that you and Phillip have had to endure such pain and I hope and pray that God will flood your souls with the peace that only He can give. If you need ANYTHING, please let me know. It would be an honor to do anything at all for you and Phillip!

     

  9. I haven't been to the grocery store yet this week so I was scraping tonight. We had grilled chicken tenderloins, homemade mac and cheese, fried corn with onions, and yeast rolls. I don't usually make that many starches in one meal but again, i was scraping just to avoid having to go to the store today. :p

  10. When Sasha stuck his nekkid butt in Eminem's face that was hilarious! Hubby and I were trying to figure out if he was really PO'd or if it was staged.

     

    Oh, and the New Moon Preview!!! :yahoo: :wub:

     

     

    That was the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. Eminem should be thankful. It gave him some t.v. time and lord knows he could use any help that he can get at this point.

  11. We had oven baked pork chops (from West Metro Meat Market- dh said they looked like steaks), black eyed peas, mashed taters, and collards cooked w/ fat back!

     

     

    Collards. YUMMM!

     

    We had L.A. burgers which is just a cheeseburger with avocado relish and tomato, chips, and watermelon for dessert.
