MARISA IS VISITING NOW!!
Sweet Marisa and Micheal and their beautiful daughters Isabel and Chanel are visiting us now! They're staying with Sam & Stephie, but have come over & visited a few days. It's so great to see Marisa after so many years--it's been 6 yrs! We had some good talk times & cried & laughed together. Marisa is so easy to talk with & so understanding. She always says, "There's nothing like having a good cry to make you feel better". I think it does work. Such a sensitive soul!! Her daughters are gorgeous & the cutest things, & Michael is a great guy, I love his Kiwi accent. They've gone to the beach all together, had barbecues & picnics, Juls & Marsi went out for coffee together. That's so nice of Sam & Stephie to have them, & the guys so sweetly took all the kids one day so Stephie & Marisa could go out. Well, I hope we'll take some photos while they're here. I'm on oxygen now and am not so ambulent. But if no one else does, I hope to get some photos in while they're here!

Here's a poem I wrote for the grandkids:

FOR MY GRANDKIDS

Little angels of my life

You keep me going

You keep me right

Little angels of my life

Your smiles are like Heaven

Your eyes are so bright

How could I live

without you?

How could I go through

the night?

You are the little angels

Sent to me

When I needed

you most--

When I needed

such Peace.
