A very special WhataWoman! award for a very special daughter.

(((Nik))) You continue to amaze me with what an amazing woman you are. I'm happy you have had these 'revelations'. And I'm so sorry for what you have had to bear.

And yes, Mrs. Moi truly is an angel. You can imagine it, but to meet her in person...well, you are just in awe of her. I don't know how she does it. One of my favorite memories is walking behind her and Mr. Moi and watching them hold hands, singing while walking ahead of me and Ducky. Pretty soon we were all singing and skipping along and well...it was great.

I sit here listening to music as I prepare, in my mind, how I will put together photos and song for my nephew and his new bride. A video montage of their lives up until today - to share with their loved ones at the reception next weekend

It is profound in that the reading of your words (((Nik-key))), I am moved to once again understand how precious life is. Each day is, indeed, a gift.... and you have been able to take the courage to make sure this day has special meaning. You have deep insight and I am very grateful that you shared with us.

I have always loved the message behind "The Dance". I also love the message from the broadway play - "Wicked" and the song: "For Good". Here it is on You Tube - along with the story of the Fox and the Hound.... one of my all time favourite stories about how we are all affected by those we know.

xooxxo Addy

Your support means a great deal to me, I am all sappy tonight and crying.
I am a total wreck aren't I... so sad, yet so happy at the same time.
It is an odd sensation, but I will have to learn to adjust to it, as damn it I AM going to be happy! I have that choice, it is mine alone to make

Addy, thank you for the video, my oldest brothers name is Todd I love this film, and the song was beautiful. Thank you

After we lose someone we love, we hear a song we have heard for years … yet all of a sudden it takes on a new meaning for us. The Dance was one of those for me. Of course I can’t help but think of our dance at my wedding. Some day… …………….I will be able to look at the photos again…
some day “our dance” will outweigh the pain

Thank you all so very much

Nik-key... I hope you and Lynn still dance.

Addy

perchance to dream...those are the best dreams...

Moi Thank you so much for the link, I spent a great deal of time there today and reliving my dream, "my time" with Dad. You are such a special person, such a good heart

Addy, yes... we dance!

Today was another wonderful day! It rained, so Lynn and I, along with our little niece went out to the puddles looking for frogs Such a small thing, but we had so much fun!!!

My sister and I decided today was the day to go threw some of my Dad's things our step mom gave me after his service. He was such a strong quiet man, he expressed his love freely, but, always left you wondering what was hidden deep inside the man. I still wonder , but one thing that was made CLEAR today, I was loved more than I ever knew. I knew he loved me, he told me daily, he expressed it, he was always there for me, always. But today, by the things he kept, by going through the things that were treasures to him.......... I knew .... better. Today, I cried.... but... today I also smiled.


I would like to share a bit on Lynn, as I found our marriage invitation, and vow renewal invitation amongst my Dad's treasures. We have always had a strong love, so different in age, yet one. When Lynn was diagnosed, of course he took it hard. We decided we wouldn't wait, and had our vow renewal early, in June of 2004. Lynn chose two songs he wanted played, that we both loved, but now took on a different meaning for us......
both by Collin Raye......

I haven't been able to listen to either song since. Partly because it hurts so much that he has faded so since then. Today while in an embrace frolicking in the puddles searching for frogs.... the words came back to me, and I wanted to share them with you.


In this life...........

This is the part of In This Life..... That will keep me strong ...

If it all falls apart
I will know deep in my heart
The only dream that mattered had come true
In this life, I was loved by you

At our vow renewal

true love knows no boundaries...

true love knows no ages...

true love knows all sadness...

true love knows all laughters...

true love increase as we age...

"true love", words of sages...

true love, good on sausages (hey, I told you I am not a poet...and it rhymes with sages, as a matter of fact, good sausages needs sages...maybe some anise seeds...and...*smacks self....stop hide yakking)

true love, never surrenders

true love, always tender

true love, mixed in blender

true love, blends forever....

Moi, that was just precious! I am going to copy it and put it in my scrap book Thank you
