I Can Only Imagine

February 7
It has been eight years since you have been gone from our presence....I know who's presence you are in.

I can only imagine what it will be like
When I walk by your side
I can only imagine what my eyes will see
When Your face is before me
I can only imagine
Yeah
Surrounded by Your glory
What will my heart feel
Will I dance for you, Jesus
Or in awe of You be still
Will I stand in your presence
Or to my knees, will I fall?
Will I sing hallelujah
Will I be able to speak at all
I can only imagine
I can only imagine
I can only imagine when that day comes
And I find myself standing in the sun
I can only imagine when all I would do is forever
Forever worship You
I can only imagine, yeah
I can only imagine
Surrounded by Your glory
What will my heart feel
Will I dance for You, Jesus
Or in awe of you, be still
Will I stand in your presence
Or to my knees, will I fall
Will I sing hallelujah
Will I be able to speak at all
I can only imagine, yeah
I can only imagine
Surrounded by Your glory
What will my heart feel
Will I dance for You, Jesus
Or in awe of you, be still
Will I stand in Your presence
Or to my knees, will I fall?
Will I sing hallelujah
Will I be able to speak at all
I can only imagine, yeah
I can only imagine
I can only imagine, yeah
I can only imagine
I can only imagine
I can only imagine
I can only imagine when all I would do
Is forever, forever worship You
I can only imagine

May 2023

February 7
I was finally able to see your headstone in May 2023. I know you are always with me, but I miss being close to keep your resting place cleaned up.

I still cry, I still miss you. It has been eight years.

Standing at your resting place...March 15th, 2019

March 16, 2019

I wish you were here. I love you. Wish you were here to help guide your little ones. I have had a hard time keeping up with everything these last 10 months. Missing you so much! ♡

When you became a mother...

April 16, 2018
I kept thinking about you this morning while driving Skylar to school. I remember how happy, healthy and excited you were to be giving birth to your first child. Your labor was induced because baby was ready and you were so tiny. Your brother John and Dave stayed with you as you progressed with your labor. You were smiling and laughing. You were texting in between contractions. The nurse had you sitting on a ball to help baby start dropping down. I wish I had this phone I have now. I would of taken a ton of pictures. It was the year 2008. When you stopped progressing, you were given an epidural. You became much more comfortable and baby Leiana was on her way. Dave, your friend Kia and I all stayed with you as you gave birth. Kia was like a cheerleader cheering you on! Your beautiful little girl was born...Dave cried and you were elated. You were so much in love and that loving smile on your face is the smile your children would see everytime you looked at them. A smile showing your joy and unconditional love for them...we miss you so much.....I love you baby girl....Love Mommy

I bought this for Easter 2 years ago. Finally put this up for you Easter 2018 (April 1st). I love you and miss you soooo much Valicia. We will be working on getting you a headstone soon...xoxo...Love you always and forever..

Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die. John 11:25 NIV

He died for everyone so that those who receive his new life will no longer live for themselves. Instead, they will live for Christ, who died and was raised for them.  2 Corinthians 5:15 NLT

Ps... Your oldest little sweetheart made the framed "LOVE" for you for Mother's Day last year.

Rest High on that Mountain

February 11, 2017

One year ago today, we laid your body to rest up high on the mountain. One of the places you loved. The Rocky Mountains. You were beautiful here on earth with such a sweet spirited heart. You are even more beautiful now free from sorrow and pain. Living with Jesus and family that has gone before you...I feel you with me at all times. My unconditional love for you is forever Valicia.

"One year ago today you went into a deep sleep. When you awoke, you were in the most awesome place ever with Jesus. Your time on this earth was done. I wasn't ready for you to leave. It is hard on all of us not seeing you, but I am happy that you won your battle and are preparing a place for us to join you. I love you my beautiful daughter. I know you are not resting in peace but being quite active doing what needs to be done in Heaven. Valicia, I love you so much....xoxoxo ((((Hugs)))) and Kisses from your 2 little ones!

My little Blessing...

January 20, 2017

God knew you before HE created you in my womb. I am soooo thankful for the 28 years we spent together here on earth...

Jeremiah 1: 5 NIV

"Before I formed you in the womb I KNEW YOU, before you were born I SET YOU APART."

29 years ago today, January 20th, you made your grand entrance into this world. You were 5 days past your due date and a c-section had been scheduled for the same day you were born. You had your own plans to come into this world and did just that at 3:40 am Texas time. It did not take long. We were only at the hospital about 4 hours, then you were here. No c-section needed. One of the first things I remember is the doctor flipping you over to see what flavor you were. A beautiful little girl just as we were expecting weighing in at 8 lbs 3 oz and 20 1/4 inches. I am very proud that God chose me to be your Mother...I love you and miss you my beautiful little girl. You are forever young singing and praising Jesus in Heaven....I will be joining you one day...hugs and kisses until we meet again. I know you are with me with each step I take. Today I celebrate the Blessing that God gave me 29 years ago. Happy Birthday my dear Valicia...loving you every moment of each day from before you were born through eternity. I will love you....♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
