I'll paint you a Rainbow

to hang on the wall,

to brighten your heart

when the gray shadows fall.

On a canvas of joy

outlasting the years,

with a soft brush of sweetness

to dry all your tears.

I'll paint you a Rainbow

with colors of smiles,

That glow with sincerity

over the miles.

On a palette of words

I will tenderly blend

tones into treasures

of sunlight and wind.

I'll paint you a Rainbow

that reaches so wide,

Your sights and your sorrows

will vanish inside,

and deep in the center

of each different hue,

A memory fashioned

especially for you.

So lift up your eyes,

for suspended above,

A Rainbow designed

by the fingers of Love.

(( Precious Shawn ))

Wishing you lots of Joy & Laughter!!

Have a glorious time in Heaven....

                                 A Hug From God

Sometimes I think I've got it all together-
I've figured out what life is all about.
It lasts a while and then it always happens-
A curve-ball come that I can't figure out.

I struggle to find my way through all the darkness-
the more I try the harder it seems to be.
Until I reach a point of fear and desperation-
It hurts so much I fall down on my knees.

A hug from God will ease a broken heart.
A hug from God will fill your life with love.
A hug from God who is your loving father-
is always there- just look to him and pray.
Oh, God please send your loving hug my way.

The room grows quiet as tears stream down my face-
the pain inside is all taken away.
A warmth surrounds my cold and shaking body-
As God's hand wipes the tears off of my face.

A hug from God will ease a broken heart.
A hug from God will fill your life with love.
A hug from God who is your loving father-
is always there- just look to him and pray.
Oh, God please send your loving hug my way.

Angel Moms

We have shared our tears and our sorrow,
We have given encouragement to each other,
Given hope for a brighter tomorrow,
We share the title of grieving mother.

Some of us lost older daughters or sons,
Who we watched grow over the years,
Some have lost their babies before their lives begun,
But no matter the age , we cry the same tears.

We understand each others pain,
The bond we share is very strong,
With each other there is no need to explain,
The path we walk is hard and long.

Our children brought us together,
They didn't want us on this journey alone,
They knew we needed each other,
To survive the pain of them being gone.

So take my hand my friend,
We may stumble and fall along the way,
But we'll get up and try again,
Because together we can make it day by day.

We can give each other hope,
We'll create a place where we belong,
Together we will find ways to cope,
Because we are Angel Moms and together we are strong!

Your continual acts of thoughtfulness and kindness brighten each day.  What you did for Waylon & me will glow in my memory, reviving pleasant feelings everytime I think about it.  I appreciate you, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

~With Love & Prayers~

A wish for you

A dream is a wish your heart makes
   and my heart makes a wish for you
That you may find a rainbow
   where all your dreams will come true.

May there be sunlight ever streaming
   into your heart each day,
May you find the hand of friendship
   along each new highway.

And may loving arms enfold you
   when you need someone to care.
And may your heart know that my heart
   is with you everywhere....

Jane, you, your family and your precious Shawn are always in my prayers.

This morning when I awoke and saw the sun above,

I softly said, 'Good morning, Lord, Bless everyone I love'

Right away I thought of you and said a loving prayer,

That He would bless you specially, and keep you free from care.
I thought of all the happiness a day could hold in store,
I wished it all for you because no one deserves it more.
I felt so warm and good inside, my heart was all aglow.
I know God heard my prayers for you,
He hears them all, you know.

GOD knows the heartache
that lies behind our smiles
and GOD knows how many times
we have broken down and cried
God is always by our side.
We want to tell you something
so there won't be any doubt
You're so wonderful to think of
but so hard to be without.

LET ME CARRY YOU

"WHEN YOU ARE ALONE
AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO,
I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU.

A FRIEND WANTS TO HELP,
IN GOOD TIMES AND BAD,
JOINING HANDS IN TOGETHERNESS,
WHEN HAPPY OR SAD.

FRIENDS ARE A BLESSING,
ALWAYS WILLING TO SHARE.
SO IF YOU NEED ME,
I'LL ALWAYS BE THERE.

COME RAIN OR SHINE,
UNTIL THE SUN PEEKS THROUGH,
AS A FRIEND I ASK, PLEASE,
LET ME CARRY YOU."

Goodnight Shawn always sending love your way. Give your mom a hug for me.
