Mom is awake, I mean really awake! She was talking to us, she knows where she is, knows what's going on. Dad just left with her to take her down to the hospital for the scans.

Every one here is just amazed. She is in alot of pain, but she was all smiles. Gave all her babies hugs and kisses (even my tough brothers, hehehehe).

God is indeed great and glorious as Mom always says. There is a soft glow about the house right now. Hard to explain it. There is a feeling of peace and grace flowing through the walls, and like mom, I can hear the whispered song of angels.

For Myles--
When evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love


For Mom--
Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.

Fly...fly high against the sky...
Thank you, thank you, thank God for you
The wind beneath my wings

Not only did we turn page 100, but it looks like a few more have been turned as well. :)

Hi all, I can't stay long, I just wanted to come on and say how much I love everyone here, and to thank you all for the prayers you have said for me. You all mean the world to me. My dear friends.

Please, don't be so sad. If my mind was working better, I would type out what my heart is aching to say. But, it just comes out wrong. Don't be sad.

You are all beautiful to me. I love you. Hugglessss |G
And I believe in you
altho you never asked me too
I will remember you
and what life put you thru.


~fly fly little wing, fly where only angels sing~

~this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you~

...for then I could fly away and be at rest. Sweet rest, Mom. We all love and miss you.

And I'm told you were on MSN chat briefly last evening?? Glad you were up for that! :D (Wish I'd been there.) Also glad Russ dragged you off. Might be good to not overdo it. :lol:

Oh Furls! Light, I've been away too long. Av messaged me and told me to come.

I want you to know you've been on my heart lately, even though I haven't been around much. I didn't know why, but God kept pressing me to pray for you.

I have a toddler and a baby girl at my feet, urging me away for the moment, but I promise I will be back later!

Let your fire burn bright, Furls, as it always has.
Love always.
