Have you ever felt alone?

After the loss of our son my life has changed in ways that I never dreamed. For instance my short term memory is not that great anymore. My focus seems so out in space. Sometimes I feel like I am so alone even though I am a christian and I do have a personal relationship with God. I have a great husband who is a strong supporter and we encourage each other each day. I also have a son who has lost his best friend his brother. As a mama I want to fix this but in reality I cannot because I can't bring Daniel back physically. Please pray for Ray he is so lost without Daniel and it breaks my heart. Ray has not been able to go to the cemetery since we buried Daniel. I know this is hurting him so. Life is so valuable so please take each moment as a gift from God.

Cancer hurt's so many...


Each time I hear someone else who is fighting to live, to put cancer out of their lives it breaks my heart. I am getting geared up for Relay For Life to raise as much money as I can to help cancer patient and to try to find a cure. If you want to help me in this Relay please let me know. You can email me at pennieannie@otelco.net.

I Feel Fall in the Air....

This was Daniel's favorite time of the year, yes you guessed it deer season. As Donald and Ray set out for their day of adventure in the woods they were missing a very important person, "Daniel". I know this is a hard season for us to get through and my heart broke as they returned home that afternoon with red eyes from crying. I know God sent Donald a special gift to bring home for me to enjoy. While Donald was up in his tree stand a baby fawn came within 20 yards of him. He ate of the leaves and licked his little body and then walked 5 steps to bed down and rest. The fawn stayed there until Donald came down out of the tree to come home just before darkness set in. Thank you God for this AWESOME time and for Donald carrying the video camera so I could share in this special moment. You don't have to look far for the blessings in life just look around and you will see what God is given so we can remember the good times of someone we have lost in this world.
Keep On Shining We Love You Daniel,
Mom, Dad and Ray

15 Months

Well here I am, I have survived 15 months after the passing of my son Daniel. I can just see him now have the best time with his paw paw and maw maw Goble, along with his paw paw Bickerstaff, uncle Lamar, granny Chamblee, cousin Mari-Anna. On day my son I will be there with you. My heart breaks to know that I must live one more minuted without my little boy. Oh God give me the strength to make it, to carry on and live like you want me to.
Precious Memories,
Pennie
