A Poem to Damon

This is a poem Robin Cross wrote to Damon and wanted to share it with my family.


Days go by and things unfold, no one knows what tomorrow holds.
Day by day we live our lives, all the while we wonder why.
We live our days busy like any other, without ever stopping to acknowledge one another.
Work, school, ball games, home life, and such, who ever realized it’s all those things that mean so much.
So often those moments ...are taken for granted, just because it’s always what’s wanted.
We often lose sight of what matters most, in the daily rituals to which we boast.
Days like these are when it seems to sink in, when in fact it is where we should always begin.
We only get one life to so called “blaze a trail”, who ever realized it could be so frail.
So take your morning, noon, and nights, and hold on to each precious memory with all your might.
Make sure you tell the ones you love, just how much, for that could very well be your last touch.

Damon

Thanks to everyone for your prayers and kind words. Anyone who knew Damon knows that he never met a stranger. He knew more people than anyone I know. It was nothing for him to stop by to visit you, eat your leftovers, crash at your house for the night, push his opinions/views on you, etc.! But that was Damon and we loved him for that. He was the best uncle in the world. We will miss him! Please continue to remember my family, especially my mom, dad, and Lee. Also, please pray for Derek and Tonya Hebner and their families as well.

Funeral Arrangements for Damon are: Visitation Friday 2-8; Funeral Saturday at 10:00 a.m. at Grayson's Funeral home in Charlestown

Allergies

Blair informed me today that she is "allergic" to 3 things:

  • poison ivy
  • bug bites
  • cleaning the basement
Oh my! Where does she come up with these things???

Kindergarten Celebration

Kindergarten Graduation at CIC (with Jak & Brian Anthony)
Wow! Where did the time go? I can't believe how big Micah is getting and how fast this school year went. Micah had an excellent year. I'm so proud of her. I'm actually at a loss for words. I thought if I waited a couple of weeks, I would have a better blog entry, but I'm still a little emotional.
I'm so proud of her academically, socially, and especially spiritually. Micah made a profession of faith and was recently baptized. She's a really good reader, she loves school, and she loves to write in her journals. She's made a lot of new friends and is starting to not be so shy. She's grown so much in all areas. She's doing great at tumbling and has just started the cheer squad.

I love that she is so girly, loves dressing up, playing with baby dolls, and is a mommy's girl. She loves clothes, shoes, hair bows, purses, and accessories. She loves to color, draw, and to read books and be read to.

I love Micah's beautiful hair, green eyes, and freckles on her nose. I love that she's dainty and I LOVE her toothless grin! I love you, Micah!!! Mommy and Daddy are so proud!
