A lot has changed over the last few months. I remember sitting at the Mercentile and Mom telling us, "Do not worry- 2010 was going to be great!" She said the only good thing that happened in 2009 was Miss Lynden Cole blessing us with her presence. Little did she know that 2010 would be worse!
- January 4th-Mom finds out that the cancer has spread
- January 11th-Poppa gets rushed to San Angelo with pneumonia complications
- January 26th-Poppa passed away
- February 27th-Mom becomes bedridden
- April 25th-Mom passed away
As I have been looking back over the past few years I find myself thankful. (I've learn it is easier to look back that way!) I am thankful that Mom got to see me marry my best friend and one of her favorite people, Mr. Cole Alexander. I am thankful that Mom was there when Lynden was born. She made to Corpus Christi 15 minutes before Lynden arrived. I am thankful God blessed me with opportunity to move back to Sonora for the last few months of her life (and Poppa's). I am SO thankful. I am thankful she gave me three amazing siblings. I am thankful she taught me how love, trust, and believe in our Heavenly Father. I am thankful that I was blessed with one of the best mothers in all of the world. I cannot explain how much I will miss her but I am so thankful for the 25 years that I had. So be thankful for everything. Every moment matters- Carpe Diem
