Sunday Afternoon





On the way home from church, Elizabeth commented that today would be a day she would sit with Daddy and play Wii. I asked her if she wanted to go to see Daddy and she said yes. This was her first visit back since the funeral and my first time to see the headstone. She wanted to decorate as well so we went to Big Lots (Mike's Favorite store) and then spent some time at the cemetery. It was a hard day for both of us that lead to a late night. I wish I could wake up and this all be a dream sometimes...

The first time is always the worst; I just visited my mom's grave with her headstone when I was home last month. I cried like a baby.

The headstone and decorations are beautiful!!!

Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers every day! Check your e-mail, I sent you picture from Relay for Life.

Love,

May our Lord continue to hold you both tightly - and love on you like never before! We are sending our love and prayers from the desert...Roxanne and family

P.S. Okay...you and Mike must have shopped at a much nicer Big Lots. My kids and I called the one in Ft. Walton, "Big Mess." :)

Words are never enough, each word seems so inadequate. We are blessed that God knows every thought and hears our prayers even when we can't find the right words. You are both lifted up to Him everyday.

We love you and "our girl"
