A Golden Heart

This poem is for Kourtney - We have it framed along with her picture in a pretty frame with flower petals in the back ground. I wanted to share it with everyone... so here it is...

A Golden Heart
God saw you were getting tired
And a cure was not to be,
So He put His arms around you
And whispered, "Come with me",
With tearful eyes we watched you suffer
And saw you fade away,
Although we loved you dearly;
We could not make you stay.
So when we saw you sleeping,
So peacefully from pain, we could not wish you back
To suffer that way again.
A golden heart sopped beating.
Your hard-working hands were at rest,
As God then gently called for,
His brightest and His best.

Sorry I do not know who the author of this beautiful poem is - So I can not give him/her the proper credit for it. However whomever wrote this poem did a wonderful job and I am very grateful to them:)

spring break?! April fools

Spring break really? What a cruel joke to start spring break this morning and have it snowing out side. Really plus I have a terrible cold and that just isn't fair - here it is finally a holiday so no work for me and I get sick plus our lovely spring has turned back into winter - now I know that the time for shorts and t-shirts was not yet here and that is fine with me, but now the coats and gloves have to come back out:( So sad, however sleeping in this morning was great and the kids are having fun with our new Netflix membership (the movies play directly onto the T.V. so they can watch as many in a day as they would like).
