Our dad Thomas died on 21st August 2002 age 47
He died suddenly whilst on holiday so the worst part was we never got chance to say goodbye.
He is missed by many especially his mum and dad brother and sister, partner and his 4 children and 6
grandchildren 1 of which he never got to meet as i was pregnant at the time of his passing.
Our lives were turned upside down that day as he was the nicest man you could ever wish to meet and
the bestest dad in the whole world. He was always there for you through the good times and the bad
and always knew what to say to make everything better.
Dad we all miss you so much but know you were too good for this world and have been taken from us
for a reason. I just wish we got more time with you so you could have watched your grandchildren
grow up and they could have got to know you like we do.
WE LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER DAD NIGHT NIGHT GOD BLESS X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X

LONGING FOR ONE MORE DAY
.☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆ * .☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆
When we lose someone we love it seems that time stands still. What moves us through is a silence a quiet sadness A longing for one more day... one more word one more touch We may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget. We will see you again some day, in a heavenly place where there is no parting. A place where there are no words that mean good-bye.

I am back in work, was soooo nervous havin interview and worried bout my panic attacks but i hav got through my first week fine and actually feel bit better bout my self so think it helps with my anxietys feel like i can do more now and have a bit of normality back in my life again. Girls a bit sad that im not always here but im sure they will get used 2 it prob do them good not bein tied 2 my apron strings as much lol.
Its not a job i want 2 do 4 the rest of my life but it has given me a kick start and hopefully might give me the confidence 2 go back 2 college and fulfill my dream of becoming a midwife, then I would be proud of myself and i know u would 2.
Was supposed 2 be havin a reading done at anges on friday but starting work at 5.30am so will prob be 2 tired 2 drive down. Shame but i hope u come through with a message for ange it would be nice 2 know ur around, coz we all miss u sooo much and will never forget u.
Take care dad and please look over us all all my love hugs and kisses love emma xxxx
WITH LOVE
â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°
The clouds may cover the sky today,
but the love that shone through your loved one
whilst on earth will shine for all eternity
through the clouds from heaven above
and fill you with warmth and light again.
â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°â™°
WITH LOVE

If you love me, do not weep. If only you knew the gift of God and what heaven is!
If only you could hear the angel's song from where you are and see me among them!
If only you could see before your eyes the eternal fields with their horizons, and the new paths in which I walk!
If only you could contemplate for one moment the Beauty that I see. Beauty before which all others fail and fade.
Why do you who saw me and loved me in the land of shadows,
why do you think you will not see me and love me again in the land of unchanging realities?
Believe me, when death breaks your chains as it has broken mine,
when on the day chosen by God, you reach Heaven where I have preceded you,
then you will see those who loved you and still loves you.
You will find there hearts the same, there tenderness even purer than before.
God forbid, that on entering a happier life, I should become less loving,
unfaithful to the memories and real joys of my other life.
You will see me again transfigured in ecstasy and happiness, no longer waiting for death,
but even hand in hand with you, walking in the new paths of light and life,
slaking my thirst to the full at the feet of God, from a fount of which one never tires,
and which you will come to share with me.
Wipe away your tears, and, if you love me truly, weep no more.

NATURE'S WONDERS
·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:··:*:··:*:··: *:· ·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:··:*:··:*:
Have you ever wondered what makes the wind blow?
Could it be our loved ones blowing us a kiss?
Have you ever wondered what makes the stars shine?
Is it our loved ones keeping watch over us while we sleep?
Have you ever wondered what makes the skies cry?
Could it be our loved ones missing us?
Have you ever wondered what makes the sun shine?
Is it our loved ones giving us a warm hug?
Have you ever wondered what makes the ocean waves come pounding to shore?
Could it be our loved ones wanting to touch us once more?
There are so many of natures wonders and do we really know why?
Is there a higher power making sure we always remember the loved one we’ve lost and shall never forget.

YOUR SMILE
·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:··:*:··: *:··: *:· ·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:··:*:··: *:
Even though your body
has gone and I can no
longer touch your face.
Your smile will be with
me forever locked inside
that special place.
You have made that
journey up to heaven
and may no longer be
around.
But you are always
there in my heart, and
when i need you, you
can always be found.
You were such a special
person and your legacy
will never be forgotten.

SAND AND STONE
********************************
TWO FRIENDS WERE WALKING
THROUGH THE DESERT
DURING SOME POINT OF THE
JOURNEY, THEY HAD AN
ARGUMENT; AND ONE FRIEND
SLAPPED THE OTHER ONE
IN THE FACE
THE ONE WHO GOT SLAPPED
WAS HURT, BUT WITHOUT
SAYING ANYTHING,
WROTE IN THE SAND
'TODAY MY BEST FRIEND
SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE'
THEY KEPT ON WALKING,
UNTIL THEY FOUND AN OASIS,
WHERE THEY DECIDED
TO TAKE A BATH
THE ONE WHO HAD BEEN
SLAPPED GOT STUCK IN THE
MIRE! AND STARTED DROWNING,
BUT THE FRIEND SAVED HIM.
AFTER HE RECOVERED FROM
THE NEAR DROWNING,
HE WROTE ON A STONE:
'TODAY MY BEST FRIEND
SAVED MY LIFE'
THE FRIEND WHO HAD SLAPPED
AND SAVED HIS BEST FRIEND
ASKED HIM, 'AFTER I HURT YOU,
YOU WROTE IN THE SAND AND NOW,
YOU WRITE ON A STONE, WHY?'
THE FRIEND REPLIED
'WHEN SOMEONE HURTS US
WE SHOULD WRITE IT DOWN
IN SAND, WHERE WINDS OF
FORGIVENESS CAN ERASE IT AWAY.
BUT, WHEN SOMEONE DOES
SOMETHING GOOD FOR US,
WE MUST ENGRAVE IT IN STONE
WHERE NO WIND
CAN EVER ERASE IT'
LEARN TO WRITE
YOUR HURTS IN
THE SAND AND TO
CARVE YOUR
BENEFITS IN STONE.
THEY SAY IT TAKES A
MINUTE TO FIND A SPECIAL PERSON,
AN HOUR TO APPRECIATE THEM,
A DAY TO LOVE THEM,
BUT THEN
AN ENTIRE LIFE
TO FORGET THEM.
SEND THIS TO
THE PEOPLE YOU'LL NEVER
FORGET.
I JUST DID.
TAKE THE TIME TO LIVE!
DO NOT VALUE THE THINGS
YOU HAVE IN YOUR LIFE, BUT VALUE
WHO YOU HAVE IN YOUR LIFE!
AND IF I HAPPEN TO GET IT BACK,
THEN I KNOW MY PLACE IN YOUR LIFE. X
*********************************************
WITH LOVE
So many days.......
have passed me by....
I want you back....
I sit down and cry...
How do I cope...
I really don't know...
I want to fall in a heap...
But I keep on the go...
Thinking of memories...
I end up with a tear....
I know you can see me...
I feel you near....
You send me signs....
To brighten my day....
To let me know...
You are okay....
My broken heart aches....
It is oh so sore...
I think of you ...
And the tears just pour....
Well I must go..
To fight another day....
Please don't forget..
You're in my heart to stay..........
