Image
For the rest of the story... A week after my birthday i received an email from a lady who found something that she felt belonged to me. She continued in this email to tell me that she found my email addy through my website about my kids. She then said she didn't want to upset my world but she found their headstones! I WAS FLOORED!! So my hubby gets on the phone and chats with her because i was a MESS!  For those who have Not read my book...my bio mother had kept them from me for 23 yrs!!! And apparently when she left to move yet again she left the stones behind! This lady had bought a house that she is remodeling. In her back yard she was removing a chicken run and found what she thought were paving stones and then to her surprise she found these.

Will be forever grateful to this lady, you know who you ar...

Diagnosis Update: Severely Sprained Ankle & A Possible Broke ACL (waiting to get the MRI for verification) We came home to the farm yesterday after spending our time at his folks since Christmas Eve. Our house wasn't ready for an injured individual yet but we are set now! Today FIL, MIL and I worked up some wood for our coming weather tomorrow and this weekend.

A Mother's Story- My Story

14 Yrs Ago Both of My Children Were Killed by a Drunk Driver. Their Father and Stepmother were also killed in this Accident. This could have been prevented! The DD was Jeffrey Burton ,48 yrs old approx., and he was soon to be a grandfather himself. He complained of being so tired that he needed to take the following day off. He commuted 2 hrs both ways for work as a relief driver for a Northwest Dairy Company. He apparently stopped off at the quicky mart and bought a six pack of beer for the trip home, drank a few and fell asleep at the wheel. On a sweeping corner, crossed the double line and hit head on the oncoming traffic which was my family. 80% head on collision crushing the front of the jeep, Bowers skidding 85 ft as he saw what was coming, and crushing the little truck into the drivers cab. The jeep was pulling a tent trailer and in this collision caused the trailer to come unhitched and shove under the back of the jeep punching a hole in the full gas tank and a fire started. ...
