Hi all you Angel moms, please make a note that I installed a new computer for my sister with a new e mail addres, I have been at it all day and I'm not sure is working properly, but for now the new address is diaz7998@bellsouth.net
The one at my work is still the same, I will not be at my office tomorrow, because we have a lot of taxes to do so I took the time out to work here. I still have to set up the e mail adresses and a lot of programs. Just to let you know that you are in my heart and prayers. As soon as I clear the mess I'm into I will let you know. Love you all. Donna try not to post and rest and so do Verna. We need you. Love Selva

Good Morning all Angel Moms,
I wanted to thank all of you for your posts. I love reading them everyday. I am finding it hard to post my thoughts but want all of you to know that you are in my daily prayers. Love to you all!
Lisa

Dear Debby,
How are you? Thank you so much for the beautiful poem and song, I actually remembered how it went and just got done singing it! That was so very thoughtful of you to remember me like that. You know how much I love doves, for that was my very 1st sign from Jesus that my Joseph was in heaven with Him, five days after his death. I have seen some doves now that spring is here. But the ones that mean the most are when I'm totally unexpecting them and when I'm in the valley, it's then that I know they are my sign from above! I copied the poem you sent me and I will put it in my memory book for Joseph when I get around to making it!
Debby, you are so special and I hope you are getting along ok. I will pray for your little niece's that they will be feeling better soon. When you get your new home built, will you make a memorial garden for your son? That would be so special. We made one for Joe and it turned out in the shape of a dove, didn't even know it until 2 months later! Also, if you looked at it from one angle it looked like a J and if you looked at it from the other angle it looked like a J, so I called it JESUS & JOSEPH, that was before we noticed it had the shape of a dove! So there are actually 3 signs in Joe's garden, we put a bird bath in it and many beautiful perennials. I love it, it brings me much joy.
Dear Father, I lift up Debby to You and ask that you fill her with Your peace and comfort today. Bless her family with good health and good timing in building there new home this year. Restore the little girls to good health once again. Bless her now in Jesus Name, Amen. God Bless you Debby!
Love, Yvonne<><

Dear Sandy,
How are you? I hope things are going ok with you. Thanks for the update on Donna and Verna, I will most certainly keep them in my prayers for restor-
ation of there health. God is good and will take care of each of us, for He knows our needs.
I'm doing ok, feeling better, busy as ever once again! I'm making those 5 dresses for a wedding for June 7th and just found out yesterday I will also be making the 3 flower girls' dresses. Luckily they are exactly the same pattern I made last year for Aaron and Brianne's wedding. So I'm familiar with it. I got this job from word of mouth by doing my son's wedding last year. It is a friend from my church and this girl was in the same class as Joe and they grew up together since kindergarten, so I know her well.
This is what I want to do for a job, although I tend to procrastinate in getting to it! I will get them done, I work better under pressure! I don't know how I would handle it if I had more than one wedding to do at a time! I often thought I would like to do 3-4 weddings a year! It's alot of work but it's worth it! I would have to pace myself if I ended up with more jobs! I love to sew.
I'm seeing my pastor's wife for counseling and I think it will help me to deal with my pain in my heart. I've been writing all of my hurts in a letter to God, it's painful, but it's healing too. She is helping me with the nutrition and physical part of it all too. I need to lose some weight and hopefully I will see some results soon. I have already lost 2 lb. I have been walking alot, but last week I hurt my foot so I had to lay off that for awhile, hopefully I can get started back on that soon. I do have a weight lifting program that I follow 3 days a week also and I do it all here at home. I'm glad I work out of my home, I don't think I would have the time or energy to do anything extra! Anyway, for the most part, I think I'm doing some better. It can be very difficult at times as we all know. I feel so bad for the families now that are going through the loss of their sons, husbands, daddies in this war. It makes me sick, but I know in my heart they are not dying in vain. I just ask Jesus to be their comfort in this time of hardship for all of these families. Bless them!
And God Bless you too Sandy. I'm so glad that spring is here. It was a very long winter and I think we feel lots better when there is more sunshine for all of us. I pray for you and all the other Angel Moms here at this circle of love!
Dear Jesus, I lift up each and every Angel Mom here and ask for Your blessing upon them as they learn to live with and experience their grief. Comfort them in their sorrow and give them 'Your Ray of Sonshine' in their hearts today. Thank you Father for Your love for us all. In Jesus Name, Amen. God Bless!
Love, Yvonne<><

Hi Sandy, Verna, Donna, Lisa, Yvonne and all you Angel moms. Well I finally connected the new computer and the new server, I think!, my sister new mail address is diaz7998@bellsouth.net (think) I will try tomorrow to set a new mail address for me, but right now I'm tired to do that, my e mail am at work is still the same., so for now until tomorrow if you want to get in touch with me do it at work, I still need to set up an e mail address here. I had a busy day and have not pray, I will do it the minute I get to bed, but be sure I will be praying for all of us. Please Donna and Verna you should not be posting now, just take care of yourselves and just read our messages. We are all praying for you and for all our Angel Moms. Love you all. Selva

Hi YVONNE. Please my sister let out your feelings here, this is the best place to let it all out. Remember I'm new at this its has been only 7 months since I lost my daughter, all I had in this earth, so we understand the pain, the anger, and as for myself sometimes the lack of faith, but I'm still hanging in there, keep on praying no matter if you don't feel like it, I understand that feeling, but keep on. We are all here for you and for all you Angel Moms. God Bless You Selva

Hi dear Deb, gosh, I'm praying by now that your little niece Molly is back home, and nothing too serious. I remember you saying that some came home from the Christening sick, yourself included. Deb, our prayers are with you for your nieces and sister-in-law to quickly recover from this, and thank you for your prayers for us. Please let us know how they're doing, lots of love and prayers,
Love Sandy

Hello dear Lisa, I'm getting a late start here today, so good evening to you! I'm happy you read and find the posts comforting, hope your son is doing better at school, God bless him and you know you don't have to be 'eloquent' here, just post what's in your heart - so I hope to see a post from you soon! Love and prayers to you,
Love Sandy

Hello dear Selva, how nice, a new computer! They're a lot of fun trying to set them up, aren't they, :) But you did it! Please let us know for certain if that's the correct address - I sent you a fwd. today at the old one, I guess it's floating around out there in cyberspace, :). Hope you're doing alright, our love and prayers are always with you,
Love Sandy

Dear Selva, Thanks for thinking of me! You're so sweet. I can tell you are dealing with your grief in a most positive way by reaching out here and helping others and yourself. I really believe that is helping you in your journey as it is all of us. It's been 3 years and 4-1/2 months for me and my family since our precious son Joseph was killed in a car accident. I'm farther down this ugly road and I know I'm doing lots better than in the beginning. But just talking to someone one on one is helping me to see it in a different light and someday little by little experience God's healing, not that I would ever forget my son because I never will (he holds a very special place in my heart), but just that the pain will not be so great.
I know how hard it is for you Selva, it's only been 7 months since your special daughter Solange passed away. She is your precious 'Angel' in heaven and please hold onto that! She is watching over you as is our Heavenly Father. You are still in the shock and disbelief part of it. Sometimes I still can't believe that it happened to our family. Prayer is our only hope to a loving Father that would never let us go. I will never give up on that and I know that you won't either. Don't ever feel like you lack faith Selva, because you wouldn't be here if you did. You are here because you have faith and that will sustain you. And it's ok if you can't pray because there is always someone standing in the gap lifting you up! I can feel the loving prayers from all of you here and I believe it has helped me tremendously. God Bless you all. And Selva God Bless you dear. You hang in there too, I'm here for you even if I don't post everyday with my prayers reaching heavenward!
Dear Lord, I lift up Selva and all the 'Angel Moms' here at this circle of love for our children and ask for Your peace and comfort to their hearts. Bless them today in whatever they do and let them look to You as their Source of strength. Let them also feel Your presence today. Bless them all in Jesus Name, Amen. God Bless!
Love, Yvonne<><

Hello dear Yvonne, I'm sorry I couldn't post to you also last night, but my comp. decided to shut it self down, (: I've been having problems with it lately, but it's 7 yrs. old, so it's served me well, and I pray it still does until I get a new one! It's always so nice to see you posting, wasn't that sweet of Deb to post that song for you! I'm not doing too bad, like everyone else I have my 'valley days' but Praise God they always pass. There are still things that cause pain, but I suppose we'll always have them, along with the beautiful memories that we cherish so much. Wow Yvonne, that's 7 dresses total for you to sew, you must really be gifted in that area, good for you! I can sew on buttons, :) That's really special that it's for one of Joe's friends, and I hope you realize your dream to make a living from it. I'm so happy for you that the Counselling is helping you, I think it's terrific that you're doing it. Gosh, good for you embarking on an exercise schedule and nutrition also, congrats on losing 2 lbs. already! Hope your foot heals soon so you can get right back at it, it's not an easy thing to do, but once you get started you begin to look forward to your walks and exercising. Keep it up! Yes, I'm happy that Spring is here, this weekend we turn the clocks ahead, so more daylight! The winter can be so depressing sometimes and actually, would you believe it snowed here this morning - no, it's not a joke, :) But it won't last and it's so nice to be able to go out without coats, boots, etc. Yes, I'm praying for the US, British and Australian troops, as well as the peoples of Iraq, and for peace. And leave it in Our Lord's Hands.
God bless you too dear Yvonne, I know we can count on your prayers, and you know that our's are with you, along with our love. Another beautiful prayer for all, and it goes right back to you too! Hope the grandchildren are keeping you busy, give them a kiss and hug from us,
Love Sandy

Hello dear Donna and Verna, our prayers and love are with you both, take good care of yourselves!
Much love & Hugs,
Sandy

Hello dear Barb, (eudora), I know tomorrow is Carol's 4th yr. Anniversary, and how difficult a day it will be for you. I ask Our Lord to wrap you in His loving arms, wipe away your tears, and through your pain remember good memories of your precious Carol. We love you and you know you're in our prayers sweetie, I also pray that you feel Carol's love for you, I know she's going to help her much-loved Mom. We're all with you tomorrow, united in our love and prayers. God bless you Barb,
Love Sandy

Hi Angel Moms. I', still dealing with the new internet service, so far the e mail I gave you it's the only one working here at my sister's house, I'm becoming a computer expert, imagine we have tax programs with all the info so I had to update all that it was not easy but it kept me busy most of the time. I'm in valley days, so I work, work and work to find some relief in my mind (it does not work), my e mail at work it is the same Thanks God, as soon as I can get this thing working I will let you all know of my e mail at my sister's, so far so can comunicate at diaz7998@bellsouth.net. I'm thinking about you all, and I'm going to make me try to pray tonight. I miss my Solange soooo much, I don't know what to do, it feels like I have nothing to look forward to, I just owrk, eat and sleep (sometimes) but there is nothing else. I'm sure you understand. Love you my sisters. Selva

PS: SORRY ABOUT ALL THE WORDS THAT ARE MISSING SOME LETTERS. I REALLY NEED TO GET A NEW KEY BOARD.

DEAR DOVESFROMHEAVEN,
HI, IT'S SO NICE TO HEAR FROM YOU TOO. YES I PLAN ON MAKING A MEMORIAL GARDEN FOR MICHAEL. I PLAN ON PUTTING ROSE BUSHES AND DAISEYS WITH A BIRD BATH SO THE BIRDS WILL VISIT. AND LOTS OF BIRD HOUSES WILL GO ON THE TREES DOWN THE DRIVE WAY TO OUR HOUSE. MICHAEL LOVED THE OUT DOORS AND HE WOULD SIT AND WE WOULD COUNT HOW MANY BLUE BIRDS OR ROBINS CAME TO GET SOME FOOD ON THE FEEDERS. MY HUSBAND WAS UPSTAIRS LAST NIGHT IN HIS WEIGHT LIFTING ROOM AND SEEN THIS TALL BOX IN THE CORNER AN ASKED ME WHAT IT WAS AND I TOLD HIM THAT IT'S THE ROADSIDE MEMORIAL CROSS THAT KIM (YAMMYOO1) HAD MADE FOR ME. I PLAN ON FINDING A SPOT FOR IT ON THE LAND. IF MY HUSBAND WILL LET ME. HE DOESN'T WANT IT TO BE A SAD SPOT THAT HE WOULD FIND ME AT ALL THE TIME. SO ONLY TIME WILL TELL WHO WINS. MY SON WOULD LIKE TO PUT IT WHERE THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED BUT I HAVE NEVER BEEN ON THAT ROAD SINCE THAT HORRIBLE DAY. WE HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING YET ON THE LAND BUT THE ROAD. IT'S OVER 500 FT. LONG. I CAN'T WAIT TO GET STARTED. I ALREADY TOLD MY HUSBAND WE NEED TO START THE GARDEN FOR PUMPKINS AND CORN STALKS FOR HALLOWEEN. WE DIDN'T THINK ABOUT PLANTING FOR LAST YEAR AND WE HAD TO BUY SOME. WE PLAN ON GOING AWAY THIS WEEKENED FOR A COUPLE OF NIGHTS AND THEN ON THE 17TH AROUND 3AM WE WILL BE LEAVING AND GOING DOWN SOUTH TO VISIT MY MOM UNTIL THE 24TH AND THEN WE WILL TAKE THE LONG DRIVE BACK HOME.
I'M HAPPY YOU LOVED THE POEM. THANK YOU FOR THE PRAYER AND I PRAY THAT YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ARE HEALTHY AND DOING FINE. LOTS OF LOVE AND PRAYERS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
