Happy Birthday Stephen

I know it's a tad bit early, but I wanted to wish you what would have been a happy birthday. We all miss you very much but what ever happens to you from this point on is in God's hands. The last month has been full of blessings for our family as well. Your nephew is a full fledged Marine now. You would have been proud. His graduation ceremony was simply spectacular and I wouldn't have missed it for anything. California was beautiful, but it is good to be home. I missed the corn fields and falling leaves.
Don't laugh at me for forgetting how old you would have been. I can't even remember my own age half the time. Some might scoff at me for writing you now, but I don't care.There are a few however, who believe that you can communicate with loved ones in the after life with modern technology. Whether I believe it or not is irrelevant. What was and is still important is that you were a great brother and I loved you dearly. Hugs and kisses from the living for your birthday present and I hope we will see each other again soon.

I'm Gonna Soak Up The Fun

I realize that it's been a while since I've written anything. Its been difficult finding time to even blog while working two jobs. Yea, I've found me another job and I'm loving it even though it has me running from morning to night. I've been trying to save so I can go to California for my son's graduation from boot camp. It seems he's going to be graduating sooner than we though. I wasn't expecting it till November but he will be able to leave by the 22 of this month. It's put me in a bind since none of the checks from my new job have come in yet. But thank God everything is working out and we will be able to take the time off to meet him in California. I'm so thrilled at the thought of going. He also expressed that he was disappointed at me for not writing more often, and I plan on apologizing. I've been short on funds. That's no joke either. I'm having trouble finding enough change to send one letter a week. I hope us being there will make up for it.
As far as writing goes, I've only been able to write 2000 words in the last two weeks. That's bad even for me since I normally average at least 5000. Thankfully I will have time for writing Wednesday I hope. Until next time may your dreams be pleasant and work out wonderfully.
