Almost a month…

April 30th, 2006

I am sure everyone would like to know what is going on in our lives right now. Donna is getting to do things she has not done in about a year like clean windows, and spend girl time with Ariana. I finally sold my motorcycle, so we got to pay off all our outstanding bills, and we had a little extra so we decided to add some life to our front yard by adding some much needed landscaping in memory of Trent. We have a handsome boy angel standing right in the middle of all the shrubs. I will add a picture of that when the weather clears up and I can finish the whole project. It was a little rainy today, but it is still trying to warm up! Wish it would hurry up. Ariana is still doing her gymnastics and cheerleading starts beginning in the summer, she is going to be taking guitar lessons with me starting this coming week. Can’t wait to try and put together a song, that is going to be so cool!

Life without Trent is pretty empty, well I don’t mean my life is empty. What I mean is there is something missing from the home. The playful laughter, the prancing of feet, the 2 man Lego’s Star Wars games we used to play. He was such an awesome team mate with that game. It is suppost to be getting easier as time goes on, but the more I look the more I see I miss him. Everytime I see a toy or a baseball bat it reminds me of the great times we used to have playing. I pray everyday that God will without a shadow of a doubt show us our purpose / what His purpose was for all of this. We had the pleasure of attending Meagan’s funeral this weekend. We witnessed how much these children truely touch so many people’s lives. The funeral director could not remember there ever being so many people that attended anyones funeral in the past. She commented on how wonderful it was to see so many people care for a girl of 7, she left a legacy for all of us and she did it in 7 years, not 70! Wow!

Just a reminder in case anyone is getting lax about how fragile life really is, don’t forget to hug your loved ones and tell them how much you love them! What I would give for just one more hug and moochies….

Prayer’s for Meagan’s family…

April 26th, 2006

Little Meagan earned her angel wings early this morning…Trenton and Meagan went through radiation together - he would always look for her before and after his treatments. Meagan was a beautiful little girl who’s smile lit up the room!! The picture is from Trenton’s last radiation day…Meagan only had about another week to go with her treatments.

We are asking that everyone please pray for the Berry family…for comfort and peace…it is so hard to lose a child…even when you can say good-bye.

John 14:1-4 Jesus Comforts His Disciples

“Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, trust also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.”
