Surprises

Boy do we love surprises these days when it has to do with you. Sometimes we go to Rose Hills and someone has left you flowers.  We have no idea who they are but it warms our heart to know that someone took the time to come.  Sometimes there may only be a cigarette butt, but that is OK too!!  I was on Facebook and found this picture.  It is on "the block".  Someone was missing you....

And More Hearts (#3)

Hey sweetie,
Keep those heart signs coming!!  Each and every one of them gets me through the day.  Sometime I see one and think to myself  "Is that a heart or am I wanting to see one so bad that I imagine it is one".  I take a picture of it anyway because to me they are all hearts and signs from you.   Even when they are misshapen and tiny and I may be the only one that sees a heart, I know that they are hearts from you.  My heart was broken the day you left, never to be repaired.
 I love you sweet boy.  Mom

Bruce Wayne

You would be so proud of your Bruce.  He got his teeth cleaned....  but they had to pull some.  Now he lisps when he barks!!!

Mothers Day 1996

Looking through a drawer the other day and came across this! Maybe it was your way of telling me Happy Mother's Day!! You were only 10 years old and I am not sure how much of it you did make but it doesn't matter. It means as much today as it did back then and I will treasure it forever!!

 I love you Son

Facebook Post

One of your friends posted this on the Facebook page that I made for you.  Really?  A kitten in your mouth?  These are the things I miss..

Always

Alex's 23rd Birthday

Our crazy crazy family.  We got together for Alex's 23rd birthday and of course Aunt Karen had games for us to play.  Even Dad, Nana and Raegan played.  I know you weren't much for games but I think you would have had fun.  YOU were the only thing that was missing...

Happy Easter Davey

Papa George

Papa George had surgery on April 2 to clear the artery in his neck.  Thanks for the sign in the phone number to the hospital to let us know that you were there....  951-679-8888.  He made it through with flying colors and is feeling a lot better now.

Nick is 17 today

Seems like he was just born.  I know that you really never got to know him because he was that much younger than you but I know that he looked up to you as the "big cousin".  I love this picture if the two of you.

Happy 4th Birthday Raegan

Today Raegan turned 4.  We took her to Disneyland for breakfast and we ate at Goofy's kitchen.  We took you and Autumn there so many years ago that I really don't even remember it but I knew we went.  After breakfast we spent the day at Disneyland.  We were there all day and we only went on 1 ride.  She was more interested in getting the Princesses to sign her book than she was the rides.  It was her day so she did what she wanted.

I wish you were here to see her grow up.  You would be so proud of her and I know that she would look up to you.  I love making memories with her but I just wish you were here to make memories with us.

Nana Joan

Brittany's Nana fought a long battle and finally surrendered on January 20, 2014.  Such a beautiful woman.  She loved you so much and every time I say her she always had something special to say about you.  Even when her own daughter left this earth, she still talked about you to me and how she missed you and what a special person you were. She didn't have to tell me, I already knew it but I loved to talk to her about you!

Danielle turned 24!

Hard to believe that she is 24 already. It seems like yesterday that you and her were walking down the aisle at Aunt Alicia's wedding. She has grown to be a very special young lady in our lives.  She remember you, she talks about you, says your name but most of all I know that she misses you too.  Watch over her like you did when you were here.  She still needs you.  Love Mom

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Merry Christmas Davey

WE LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU DAVEY

Christmas Eve Sign

Thank you for all the signs.  When I least expect them but need them the most, they show up.  Others don't understand what they mean to me but that is OK. They don't understand period.  Everywhere I go I am always looking for them. Sometimes they are not easy to find.  I think you enjoy making me work for them!  Autumn, Raegan and I went to church for Christmas Eve and low and behold you gave us a sign... a heart of course on Raegan's cheek.  Love  you and wish you were here to celebrate Christmas with us.

Another memory

without you......

Ice Skating at Disneyland

This year we took Raegan to Disneyland so that she could ice skate.  It was in Downtown Disney and it was just a little rink but she was so excited.  We invited Elle (Danielle), Adrien, Alyssa and Aunt Karen.  Rae was so excited for them to come and have this experience with her.  She loved it!  At first she really didn't know how to do it but after awhile she caught on and there was no stopping her!  I wish that you could have seen her.  I am sure that you wouldn't have gotten on the ice but you would have enjoyed watching her and the look on her face.  Memories I so wish you were here for.  Love and miss you.  Mom
