In Memory of My Mother-in-Law


On Wednesday, July 21, 2010 at 1:17 am we lost my mother-in-law to Alzheimers. We are sad to see her go, but we are thankful she is not in pain or confused anymore. She endured more than anyone should have to.

God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be,

So he put his arms around you and whispered "Come to me".

With tearful eyes we watched you,

and saw you pass away,

And though we loved you dearly,

we could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating,

hard-working hands at rest.

God broke our hearts to prove to us,

He only takes the best.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.
Proverbs 3:5-6

If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.

A PAIR OF SHOES - AUTHOR UNKNOWN

I am wearing a pair of shoes.
They are ugly shoes.
Uncomfortable shoes.
I hate my shoes.
Each day I wear them, and each day I wish I had another pair.
Some days my shoes hurt so bad that I do not think I can take another step.
Yet, I continue to wear them.
I get funny looks wearing these shoes.
They are looks of sympathy.
I can tell in others eyes that they are glad they are my shoes and not theirs.
They never talk about my shoes.
To learn how awful my shoes are might make them uncomfortable.
To truly understand these shoes you must walk in them.
But, once you put them on, you can never take them off.
I now realize that I am not the only one who wears these shoes. There are many pairs in this world.
Some woman are like me and ache daily as they try and walk in them.
Some have learned how to walk in them so they don't hurt quite as much.
Some have worn the shoes so long that days will go by before they think about how much they hurt.
No woman deserves to wear these shoes.
Yet, because of these shoes I am a stronger woman.
These shoes have given me the strength to face anything.
They have made me who I am.
I will forever walk in the shoes of a woman who has lost a child.
