She has a big heart!
I have a fairy statue that would be nice for the garden.
Aileen, can I drop it off to you at work tomorrow?
Absolutely, I will deliver your fairy and place it in a place of honor.
I sent my daughter out to find the pig statue and actually I have
four. So I will bring them all. My digital camera was stolen so
I'm hoping Nanny has one and can post some pictures on here
tomorrow.

The more and more that I read this I knew that I couldn't
in my heart let this dog be put to sleep. Thank you
so much for talking him into your home. Mine is kind of
full of many dogs and kids, but I would have done some-
thing to help him. If a picture of every animal that is
going to be put to sleep is put on here maybe we could
empty the shelter. ( I wish )

I have a small concrete pig statue that I would love
to place in the garden. I will bring it tomorrow.

I think it would depend on how big the yard and project is.
Maybe to start you could get some basic landscaping
quotes.

Please let me know how to get the money to you. I
think this will mean so much to them. I am so proud
to be a pcommer.
If you are in the Dallas area stop by the daycare and
I will give you the money. ( Brookwood across from
Dallas Elem. )

LL,
Nanny has some things she wants to add to the
garden. I have been describing it to her. We will
bring them tomorrow evening around 4:15. Hope to
see you there.

I think the statue is beautiful. Count me in. I will donate. Let me
know when and how much.

So glad everyone will heal. We don't need anymore sad news. Give us
as much happy news as posible. Continue to heal and enjoy life.

I'm so glad everything turned out well. I couldn't be with you in body
but I sure was with you in spirit. Everyone was on my mind today.
I thought about the Winchester family around 11:00 and the Hicks
this afternoon. And all of the volunteers that so graciously gave their
time and love today. Even through today is over there is still tomorrow
and the day after and the day after and so on. Lets not forget that
these families will still comfort and support for a long time to come.

I was talking to one of the out of town family members yesterday and they
could not believe what one community could do. She said she had never
seen anything like it. I don't know what state she lived in. But I thought
this was normal. You are supposed to help your fellow man. No matter
who they are. At least she can go home knowing that her family is being
taken care of.

PsychoMom, Don't forget I have paper goods.
-
Just left PsychoMom at Clark. She asked me to let people know what the
needs for tomorrow are.
Paper goods ( eating utensils, plates, napkins and cups.
Food ( sandwichs, desserts, things that don't need to be heated )
Drinks
And most of all VOLUNTEERS. They need help setting up and serving.
Please pm or let them know that you are available and when.
Thanks you,

Thanks Nanny for starting the post. Just got back from the Funeral Home.
I got there around 4:20 and the line was just forming inside. I left around
5:15 and the line was outside and going around the building. All of those
young kids were so sad. The parents of both kids were so strong for
these kids. I didn't know Mrs. Hicks but I felt that I needed to talk to
her. She never left her sons side and her hand was always touching
him. She was so pround of her son. She said that now both of her
men are together in Heaven. I cannnot imagine how she was even
standing there. She said that she buried her husband 40 days ago.
And tomorrow she will bury her son. I wanted to somehow take
away some of her pain, but she said that her faith would get her
through this. She said if Job in the bible could do it then so could
she. May God Keep her in his embrace. I got to play in the dirt today
with Liberty Lady. She is doing an awesome job. She will update later
on what is still needed in the garden. Hope to have a picture of it on
here tomorrow. The parents of both kids are asking for notebooks and
pens for each young person that is there tomorrow. Rianna's mom said
that she wrote in her journal all the time. There were several books on
her bed today. She wants all the kids to be able to write down their
thoughts and memories. They have about 250 notebooks they need
as many more as possible, and ink pens to go with them.
PsychoMom asked that people please try to donate paper goods for
the fellowship service tomorrow. Plates, cups, napkins, eating utensils
and food. She especially needs volunteers to help set up and serve.
If you can help please let her know. I can take things in the morning
if anyone wants to drop them off as Nanny said. Thank you for
anything you can do.

I have a plaque about tears to heaven I woud love to give. If
anyone has thought about a small pond in this garden I have
many pond plants to put in it. The sound of water is so soothing.

I know it is after 5:00. But can we drop off the pens and notebooks
at Clark? I know Target had the packs of ten for $1.00.

Everyone handles grief and loss differently. When my first husband died in
a car wreck I was told that I would go through the stages of grief. Well I
didn't follow the stages. I skipped many of them and went back to them
later. No one can tell you how to feel. Somedays I think everything is okay
and then he pops in my head and my heart breaks again. My son was 9 months
old and I didn't know until after the funeral that my daughter was expected.
I still don't remember a lot of the funeral itself and it has been 14 years. I
wanted to scream when people said I know how you feel and the best one is
"what can I do for you?" My comment to them was to bring him back to me.
Of course they couldn't. So why ask? I know people just want to help in some
way but the best thing is to put your arm around them, let them know that you
are there and if they want to talk about that person then let them. And don't
forget about them after everything is over. We all know that is isn't truly over
for a long time sometimes never.

This is wonderfu news. Thank you so much Doreen for caring and
helping this family. We need to get together and plan the food and
whatever else you need help with. There are several people who
wish to help with this. Lets do this in memory of Cheyenne.

I can feel the pain of the loss of her husband. Been there and it still
hurts. But the loss of a child in inconceivable to me. My mind will not
let my heart go there. To have such loss so close together is unthinkable.
You are truly in my thoughts and prayers.
Aileen
-
You will be just up the street from me. I will bring something
to let them know that they are in our thoughts and prayers.
May God continue to be with everyone involved.

I can't type because of the tears. May God hold
you especialy close to his heart during this time.
There are no words to comfort you but just know
that you are not alone.

I will be there in honor and memory of a child that
was taken far too early from this world. And maybe
some peace will come to her family.

If I were to start this business-how many of you would try and how much would you pay?

I think you have a great idea and you talent is natural. Maybe the name
could be another name for trees/plants or nature. Something that
means a lover of nature. Just a thought. If you ever need help let
me know. I have some babysitters if you need them too.
