I know that I can be difficult and sometimes I am sorry for that. I know that I probably don’t need to be sorry, but I am. In fact, I feel guilty for feeling sorry in the first place.

Shine Your Light
The sun is a shining force to guide us and light the way. But the moon and the stars, although subtle, also light the way. Stars cannot shine without darkness.

Newest SIDS Research
Many of you know that I had a baby girl pass on to be with the Lord on December 15, 1996. It was the most horrible experience I have ever felt and pray that parents never have to go through this. She did pass of SIDS and so I try to stay up with the latest research in hopes that there is a cure someday.
