It is hard to believe it is six years since you passed on, but it also seems a lifetime ago. I will always love you and miss you so much. Six years ago it was a beautiful day, today it is raining and feels like winter.
My thoughts today are of you and the part you played in our family.
The sunshine will come back, the flowers will bloom again and we will dance again. Xxxxx

No other time could be as sad or quite as hard to bear, as celebrating Christmas without you being there.
You meant the world to everyone and at this time of year your kind and gentle nature was so precious and so dear.
Dear Daughter we will meet again when Earthly life is through, so may the Angels keep you safe until the day we do xxx

4 years today was your funeral. Its not a day I can forget, although on the other hand, I can't remember a lot of things. I got through that day in a haze. Its the type of day I don't wish anyone to have to go through; a day when a mother sees her child's coffin and reality hits. I'll see you on the other side one day. I miss you so bad xxx

Happy birthday, Jade xxx I miss you so much xxx
When I look up at the sky
I see a pair of wings go by.
It's not a bird, but an angel I see
Through the clouds, she smiles at me.
And when I see that beautiful blonde hair
I know then that my Jade is there.
My arms long to hold her next to me.
But this is a dream that can never be.
She waves and continues on her way
So it is without her that I must face each day.
I can only remember her in my heart
With the love and memories, we're not apart.

I wanted to call you today to say I love you, but your old number is no longer in service. I tried the operator she said 'sorry I have no number for you'. I tried to go to your house, but you don't live there anymore. The post office has no forwarding address. I guess heaven is just too far away. I Love You, I Miss You. You are in my heart always xxx

I thought of you with love today but that is nothing new.
I thought of you yesterday and days before that too.
I think of you in silence as I often speak your name
All I have are memories and your picture in a frame
Your memory is my keepsake with which I'll never part.
God has you in His keeping, I have you in my heart.

I always told you there was no such thing as monsters, but I was wrong and11 years ago today you were taken by one.
You will always live on.
You will always be young.
You will always be beautiful.
You will always be thought of for what you were - a fun-loving, happy, helpful, loving and friendly young woman.
No one can take any of that away from you.
I'll see you up there one day. Until then... keep on dancing and making the angels laugh.

Christmas Mass 2011
December 24, 2022
11 years ago today we went for our last Christmas Mass at St Martin's Church.
We got ready and went for drinks up town - Alfreton - with friends, then on to church at about 11:30pm.
I went most years and Jade had been with me before, but neither of us had ever taken communion. We hadn't been confirmed, but for some reason we decided to go up with all the others.
Both slightly tipsy, but very respectful, we went up to receive the blood and the body (wine and wafer) of Christ.
As we knelt there, the vicar came across and we had a sip of the wine followed by the wafer, but Jade held out her hand and took it instead of opening her mouth to receive it, and just looked at me.
''You are supposed to eat it'', I whispered, ''not grab it in your hand''.
She said ''but I don't want to''.
''Gordon Bennett, just eat it!'' I said, before he see's you messing about with it.
With that, we went back into the congregation to finish the mass.
We came out full of silly giggles on our way back to the pub, holding arms and looking up at the starry night, as you do.
That was our last Christmas together.

Captiva island
October 2, 2022
Watching the news this week has been very sad. In 2010 we flew out to Florida for a holiday with Jade. The first week we stayed on Captiva Island on the gulf coast, in a house called blue heaven, it really was a little piece of heaven on earth. We walked to the beach most days and watched dolphins swimming in the sea. If you fancied a cool drink, give a wave and a boat called Joeys would pull in from the sea and you could buy ice creams drinks and snacks, it was beautiful. We sunbathed on the roof terrace in the afternoon dipping in the pool when it got too hot. The sunsets were breath taking. It has been so sad this week to see that little piece of heaven on the news. Hurricane Ian hit the gulf coast on Sanibel Island which was just below Captiva Island and both islands have been ravaged and are completely cut off from the mainland. A little piece of my heart broke again watching the devastation caused to such a special place, my thoughts are with those in Florida at this difficult time, we are so grateful for the memories.
Come on England!
June 19, 2016
Come on England! Let's get ready to rock 'n; roll tomorrow.
It took a long time, but I eventually got Jade into football. I think it was the beer that was more attractive than the game.
We had thin red, white and blue ribbons in our pigtails lol
