Don't stop believin'....until it's time to stop.

It has been many months since I last posted.  One day I will post on the success of our relay that was the inspiration for this blog.

Today, though, it is with a sad and very heavy heart that I share that my mom, aka the kids' Gran, ended her year long battle with stage 4 lung cancer two weeks ago today on Sunday, September 2, 2012.

While my family is relieved that has suffering has come to an end, we miss her and will forever.  We are beyond proud of her courage, her determination, and the spunk she kept throughout her illness.

We love you, Mom.. You are missed terribly, and will always and forever be in our hearts.


I see trees of green, red roses too

I see them bloom, for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

I see skies of blue, and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, dark sacred night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces, of people going by
I see friends shaking hands, sayin', "How do you do?"
They're really sayin', "I love you"

I hear babies cryin', I watch them grow
They'll learn much more, than I'll ever know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world
