I can't believe that you've been gone 6 years already. It doesn't seem like it. It's been a good day, I've talked to Debbie three or more times today. She misses you so much. Your tree is full of flowers from all the rain we've had lately. Well give dad and Rusty a hug and kiss for me. I love xoxo you bunches.
I had a Birthday Luncheon at our place Golden Corral. They don't serve breakfast anymore since COVID-19. Amber, Audrey, Brook, Michael, Shawn, Tonya, Devin, Pete, Aunt Marlene, Tiffanie, Peyton, Lanie, Erick and Kathy came it was great to be together. It was so great to hug and kiss my Brook I haven't seen her in a few months. She was my answered prayer and BEST Birthday gift ever. Erick and Lanie gave me a Navy Blue teddy bear you can put different cards on it, Audrey and Amber gave me Purple Pom-pom flowers and Kathy, Rick, Shane and Brittney gave me a card and It's My Birthday button. Afterwards I went wal-mart to get some groceries. Today I bought myself 2 plants for my Birthday. I miss you so much I still can't believe it will be 6 years on Thursday that you went to Heaven. I miss you so much. Give Rusty, Dad, daddy Floyd and my Mojo a hug and kiss then have them each give you one back from me, Erick and Scott. I go to Dentist tomorrow to get x-rays and check the tooth I broke yesterday eating green beans and mashed potatoes. Thankfully it doesn't hurt. I am having them pull it Thursday after I go to Physical Therapy for my arm and shoulder. That's a whole other story. Bye for now. xxoxoxoxoxox

Your tree bloomed 9 flowers for you today. Give Rusty a hug and kiss for me. Tell him we're having skipits for dinner. Hug Mojo, Dad and Daddy for me, tell them I love and miss them to! So Erick was sick yesterday he had a fever of 104 and uncontrollable shakes. Lanie came and made him go to doctors he was dehydrated and exhausted from working and not drinking enough water during the day. You would love her, she loves Erick so much. I'm so thankful GOD sent her to him. Scott went and got 6 shots in his back yesterday from lifting to much weight at work and over doing it. It's so quiet here now that mojo's gone, I miss him so much but he's with you and Rusty and not in any more pain. I wish Debbie lived here so I could be with her today and more often then I see her now, she moved back up to North Carolina, I miss her so much. I go and see Cherie when I can. Well I guess I should go eat some breakfast, Love and miss you so much. xoxoxoxox

it has been a month and a half since you went to Heaven. I miss you but I know your ok because you were dancing at the side of my bed so I could see that you were not in any pain any more. I am taking it day by day like you said to. I am taking care of a lady that reminds me of Mary she talks low like her to. I will be doing it for awhile because Micki is having hip surgery in October so I will take care of her until she doesn't want me to. I like helping her like I did you. I LOVE YOU but you know that already. Give dad a hug and kiss for me and tell Mary the kids are ok to. Peyton started daycare full time today and he's potty trained. He asked about you Saturday.
