6 years

Today is 6 years since Bobby passed away. I still think about him every day. I miss him always. I loved him so much and I'm sure as much as any woman has ever loved a man.

I imagine I always will.

If you plan on going out tonight, be careful of drunk drivers, shooters, people being careless. Don't drink, be a parent first, and get home safely.

I'm glad to be saying goodbye to 2008. It was hard for a lot of people. I was blessed in 2008, despite the economy. God took care of me this year, like every year. I didn't go hungry, the kids had a good Christmas, I was warm enough in the winter, I had a safe running car, I was cool in the summer, all my needs were met, and my family members were all safe.

I pray for 2009 and for the changes taking place. For Madison, who has yet to be born, for David, who's leaving for the Army. I know it will be hard on Heather. For Katie, who's daycare is up in the air. I know that in all things though, God works them out, so I have to trust in him.
