This earth was blessed with a girl named Ellie for 9 years. I invite you to read Ellie’s mom’s blog. She has taught me for sure to be a better mom all around. I felt I already cherished each day with my children, never knowing what God has planned for me or them, but Sarah has really helped me go an extra mile in cherishing the responsibility God has blessed me with… I’m a wife and a mother of two and I do not take these roles lightly.
Happy Birthday Ellie in Heaven, we know you are dancing with the Angels.

After news of a peer passing very unexpectedly, my mind has been consumed of her family still left on earth. There are three children now without their biological parents and a lot for a family to do. I lift them all in prayer. I cannot imagine the circus. So with this, my day was simplified.
After emails and prayers, I spent time with my children, hugging them and telling them I love them. I also retalked to hubby about our lack of Wills and final instructions. We both agree to get on this sooner than later. It’s better to deal with death when you’re not dying (not that you know of). So the decisions will be made and done and those left can grieve without the addition of decision making.
My husband and I are very comfortable with our “life after death” – We have each accepted Jesus into our hearts (read more on our bio page), we let our children know Jesus loves them. In their time, we pray that they too accept Jesus Christ as their Savior. It just so happens at church we’re studying “Daniel” (Beth Moore study) and it’s awesome, I am SO excited about HEAVEN, the real deal and all! Woo Hoo! It’s not just puffy clouds and stuff
So my day was simplified. I am praying for those who have not and those who don’t know they need to honestly make a choice from their heart to accept and confess Jesus as their Savior. It is VERY real. Before Sept 1997, I didn’t believe a lick. But I am very sure now of how REAL this all very much is to me and all I come in contact with on earth.
Temporarily here, serving the One True God, awaiting to be taken to the Eternal Home when God says so.
