A Year Has Passed

A year has passed since I have seen my little girl...kissed her...laughed with her...held her. The pain is worse...time has not helped me yet. I am glad she does not have to endure cancer and its treatments anymore. Sierra is completely healed and in God's forever presence and that does bring me comfort. I plan to visit her grave and put new flowers there for her and just miss her as I always will. I will be there between 1 & 2. That is all I have planned except of course to miss her as I will forever.

I will update more later...please keep us in your prayers as we try to get through this day and the rest of our lives without our little girl.

God bless you all!!

I Miss You All

It has been awhile...a long while. I do apologize and I want to say I miss blogging. I just didn't have much to say. A lot is going on that I really don't want to talk about but God is good and in control and for that I am grateful. My husband is getting the help he needs to get through the difficulties of grieving. He will be looking for a new job and I am praying that he finds one soon. Please, keep this in prayer that he does find a job. The economy is bad and jobs aren't easy to find but I know God is a good God and we have to rely on him. When He closes one door another one opens so I am praying that God will open the door to a better opportunity for my husband and one that he will be happy at. I in turn will have to leave my little part time job that I absolutely love doing but I need to get something full time with benefits. Thankfully, I did and I will start in July. I will be a secretary for a new school opening at the start of the new school year. God opened this door for me and I am praying He will open one soon for my husband.

The rollercoaster of my life has been extremely difficult but one that has made me really appreciate and hold on to Jesus more. He loves us and He wants the best for us and in the end Jesus is all that matters.

I needed to get away from the blogging...get away from the childhood cancer world but of course I cannot stay away. I will always do what I can to help raise awareness for childhood cancer. I pray for that cure to come one day soon.

Thank you all for the prayers. I will post again soon. I have to post about the Fashion Funds The Cure evening that I went to back in March and post a couple of pics from that. The evening was dedicated to Sierra and another young teenage girl that died from Leukemia as well Emily Lester.

Thanks again for checking in. I love you all!!!

Happy Easter!!!
