Now she can let go when God says He's finished decorating her new place.<BR/>I know you will be sad, but it's kinda cool that you are both getting new homes at the same time, isn't it? I'll bet hers will be prettier.<BR/>It may be purple, too.

Also good you feel like sharing in the meetings about it. <BR/>It's the most loving thing we can do to tell our loved one to just let go. They worry about us ! All is well with her and, as other's have said, she is passing into a better place - no pain, nothing to tether her here. Keep up your spirits and don't take any crap from that young whipper-snapper that has just now begun to come around. Enough said.<BR/>I love the park sigh about the bears-sooo cute ! Had me to the very end teehee.<BR/>Love you, Davepeanuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01762277303102454492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9327470.post-91051322587908546532008-07-28T14:34:00.000-05:002008-07-28T14:34:00.000-05:00Dave, I hope that your mother goes peacefully.

I cried of course but mostly my tears were tears of joy. Joy in knowing that she was finally rid of the body that held her here on Earth. I knew without a doubt that she was with God and young and beautiful and pain free. I bet the first think God did was give her a cup of coffee. She told me early on, when she could no longer eat or drink that the thing she missed the most was coffee. Your mom and my mom will meet and share lots of stories about all of us.....maybe even some we haven't told anyone!Trailbosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10560979016510119034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9327470.post-72430322300763044402008-07-28T08:04:00.000-05:002008-07-28T08:04:00.000-05:00I think when we make those types of decisions they...I think when we make those types of decisions they are perhaps the biggest service we can do. So and I had to convince our brother it was time to let go, he was not willing to give in for years. Thankfully, he gave us the go ahead and Mom was able to go.<BR/><BR/>You done good, David.Scott Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06361224878660334532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9327470.post-44554195895078412762008-07-28T07:42:00.000-05:002008-07-28T07:42:00.000-05:00I'm so glad we have a loving God to hand our Mothe...I'm so glad we have a loving God to hand our Mothers over to and know he will treat them well.Pammiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00513814300181006348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9327470.post-52290692012992690802008-07-28T06:32:00.000-05:002008-07-28T06:32:00.000-05:00My father hung around for a couple of weeks after ...My father hung around for a couple of weeks after we made that decision.
