Good Morning Son,I miss you sweet boy. We all miss you.I've seen several people that have said they miss you so much and think about you and Shelby Girl.I hooked up with Becky yesterday and her Mom and Dad, they miss you too. We visited for a bit, it was nice talk with them. They loved you very much son. Becky is very sad still and misses you both. She leaves notes on Shelby's grave and sometimes they get wet and ruined. So I asked her if I could take them home when I see them and she said I could. I asked her if I could post them on your site and she said I could. So, I will be doing that little by little adding things your friends write for you and Shelby.It's a beautiful day and the Hot air Balloons are in Walla Walla this weekend. Greg and I are thinking about going there for a night. He has an old school friend that he stills sees and we can stay with them.Tomorrow is Mother's Day and it will be tough. We are going to Gr. Pielsticks for a brunch then we are having friends over for a BBQ. We gave Max to Uncle D for a companion. It is a good fit, they are both kinda lonely. Not anymore!!!I miss you my boy, I miss you so much. I just want to hug and kiss you so bad.Journey had a horrible day yesterday with her missing you. We had a wonderful talk and we held and comforted each other. God nick, it has been rough for your lil sissy. It hurts my heart to know she hurts so bad. But I told her I am here always for her and that I DO UNDERSTAND her pain and longing for you.Oh Nick, we just all miss you so much and lil Shelby Girl. It is still all too painful to comprehend. Journey says it is senseless! I agree, it has all been a very difficult thing to try and wrap our minds around.Journey is doing Cheer again for a season. She will start on the Richland High School dance Team in the fall, she will be a freshman. I can hardly believe it son. I wish you were here to see her, to see us all. We miss you Nicholas. You are missed so much by so many.I will write you later babe. I love you more ~Moma~"The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles.

Good morning my beautiful angel boy:I my beautiful Nick, I miss you my boy and I have been having a very hard time with missing you. I swear to heaven, NO-ONE I mean NO-ONE really freaking gets it!!! NO-ONE, no-one but a mother and father, and then we don't even get it. When our husbands die they have a name for it..she's now a 'widow". If our parents die they say we are "Orphans". But what is the name for a parent the moma, the daddy who loses their child or baby? There is no name for it, and I had a guy tell me yesterday at Jordon's funeral, what do they call it when a parent lose's their child? and I looked at him and said, there is no name for it for us, for the nightmare because.....OUR CHILDREN AREN"T SUPPOSED TO DIE BEFORE US PERIOD!!!! That's why there is yet to be a label, title, name for it. Maybe it is something to carefully consider, because the truth is, our children are dieing before we do. This is why I cannot make any sense of it, You, Shelby, Jordon, and all the other babies and children buried in that cememtery. There have been 6 babies layed to rest son since June of 08. That's too many babies dieing. I miss you and ache for you my baby, my boy, my son, my Nick!!!I am not in a very good frame of mind right now. I am perplexed, angry and downright lonely for you. I miss you so freaking much it makes me sick to my stomach.I simply and profoundly miss you. I will write you later Nicky, I love you so much my sweet son, I miss you, I love you more ~moma~
June 03, 2009
Hi son,I love you baby, and moma misses you terribly Nick!!! Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick, Nick. Why did you leave me son, why oh why son!!! I just don't understand. I miss you. I am trying to get on with life,even just a little bit! But I realize I am magnetically drawn back to missing you and wanting you to the point of defeat...everytime. I try and try and try and try and I try. Try I might, I only seem to get so far, then I am right back to Oct. 23rd 2008. What am I gonna do my son, how am I gonna do this WITHOUT Y O U!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"Sweet Dreams" my "sweet Nick".I miss you I miss you, I love you more ~moma~

NICHOLAS

Hi baby,
I love you sweet boy.
I miss you so very much and I have been missing you like crazy for the past week. So many things are reminding me of you.
I am getting ready for Greg and Journey's Big day tomorrow son...HOMECOMING!!!
Lloyd is going on his fishing tour, so I'm on my own. He won't be home til??? maybe 5, we'll see. Anyway, I am preparing a formal dinner for about 8 teens and I am so happy to do it. God Nick I wish you were here so bad. Journey is gonna look like a real princess, and Greg will be more Handsome than ever in is Tux.
I have a long day ahead of me so I should get to sleep.
When Journey and I were driving around yesterday looking for her dress we couldn't help but notice fall is on it's way, the leaves and trees are changing color and the air is cooling down a night. It's still in the upper eighties during the day and beautiful outside, but winter is on the way.
All the leaves will be falling from out beautiful trees soon, I don't like that because they look so bare, but Autumn is my favorite time of the year, summer is a close second.
Everything reminds me of you, it is more than I can bare.
Nicholas I miss you so much. It hurts deeply still. When I get really sad, I turn up 106.5 and listen to good ole rock-n-roll and sing out loud from the top of my lungs to get out the frustration, madness, anger and grief. It gets me through for the moment to just lose myself in music.
I miss you Nicky, I miss you beyond belief. I will never stop missing you!!! how could I. You are always on my mind and forever in and on my heart.
"Sweet Dream" my sweet Nick. I wish I could hug you, see you, hold you and feel you loving me back. You were such a great hugger and my pride and joy. I will never understand the insanity of it all.
I love you, I love you, I love you.
I will write you later my precious son.
Sweet dreams baby, sweet dreams.
I love you more ~moma~

Good morning beautiful son

Hi sweet boy,
I love you so, I miss you.
Well by the time I got home last night it was 10pm, sorry I didn't write baby!! I ran all day with errands, picking up kids, looking for a dress for Journey which we found, then to take her to cheer, then to Open House at their school. Then I had to go shopping. OMG Nick, what a crazy crazy day!!!
I love you son, and you have been heavy, heavy on my heart the past week. I cry a lot and can't help it, I just miss you so much.
Today we have to look for a purse for your sissy, we already have her shoes:). I will send a pick of course of them both when the pics come in.
Right now I am helping a friend do paperwork. The kids will be home soon.
I love you my Nicholas James....like no other. I miss you.
I will write you later my love. hugs and 3 kisses cuz 1 just isn't enough.
I love you more ~moma~

I LOVE YOU SWEET BOY ~moma~
I MISS YOU MY NICHOLAS ~moma~

Hi baby

Hi son, I love you!
Well, we found out that Jade has a little ways to go before she can be bread. But it was good to take her over so they could check her out. She is healthy and beautiful. She wont be ready to breed until next year though. They get first pick then Greg keeps the rest. He will probably keep one and sell the others. As much as I don't like snakes, I have to say Nick, I do like Jade, but I rarely will I touch her. Ha ha ha!!!
Greg is playing your x-box right now. He left all your music and all your cars as you last had them. He's digging your tunes.
Lloyd took Journey to gym, and then he's going by your Dads to weld the front handrail back together. Then he is going by The Kinsey's to look at Pamela's car, it needs a little tune up. Darrell isn't around so Lloyd told her anytime she needed help with her house or car he would help out. He's such a GOOD man, I love him so much. I am glad we have worked things out. The kids are totally happy about that.
We are busy this weekend with H.C. Shopping, pictures, dinner and all. It warms my heart to see them doing so well. They are growing up...so fast. They are beautiful.
Next weekend we will take our R.V. out. I am so looking forward to that.
Lloyd is going on a fishing trip with his dad, mel, and a couple others on Sat. It will be a guided tour. Greg was invited but he has H.C. Maybe he can go next year, he's starting to enjoy fishing more. He really liked going out with his friend and dad about a month ago. He caught 3 nice sized Steel head. I was so proud of him.
Well son, I'm saying good night. I love you so much sweet boy. Sweet dreams and I will write you later.
Hugs and 3 kisses to you and Shelby girl, cuz 1 just isn't enough!
I love you more and more,,,forever more ~moma~

Handsome Nick

Hi my sweet Angel Boy,
Today marks 11 months since you flew away to Heaven with all the other Beautiful Angels!!! My heart is sad today to say the least, I miss you so very much. I cannot even believe you have been gone 11 months. I feel the way Greg does about it all.... it seems like we just saw you last week and yet it feels like forever!!! He said he's not in denial, it just doesn't completely feel real even after all this time. I think it is a way for our minds to protect us from experiencing even greater grief and pain. It has been a rough 11 months, good, bad, sad and everything in between. I miss you. We all miss you. But all in all, we are recovering and healing, sticking together and regaining our the structure in our lives. The love I have in my heart for you Nick will last a lifetime, even though you are not here...your love for me lives on forever. Sometimes when I look at pictures and you are looking straight into the camera, it looks like you are looking right at me and it is almost like you are standing before me. I zoom in and look for a looooong time.
I decided I would watch your slide show today, and Shelby's. If I can't beat this I might as well try and come to grips with it! I don't know how else to deal with you not being here, except to embrace all the good and all the love you so freely shared and gave to me while you were here. It brings some comfort, and little relief now, but I do know I will be with you again some day my sweet Nicholas James.
You are precious and beautiful son, and I love you so much.
I'm going to The Garden in a little bit to bring you flowers. I went there 2 days ago and someone left a beautiful cross wind chime for you on your tree. Thank you whoever left it. I might have to take them down when winter comes so they stay nice. Lloyd said just buy new ones, but I didn't buy them all. They came from lots of people, me, tab, Beck and others. Norma and Christian brought you a Beautiful ceramic cross and that is by your headstone, it is so pretty. You have all kinds of people bringing you little gifts all the time Nick, I have to continually straighten make room for things. I save everything.
Speaking of ceramics...Journey is taking a ceramics class this semester, and she loves it. She got into that class because we had her Gym and Cheer leading hours converted into P.E. credits. It's pretty cool. Her hamstring still hasn't completely healed but it is doing better. I'd say she has another 2 weeks before she will be 100% again.
We are going today to get Greg and Christina's flowers for Homecoming. Last year they didn't do a very good job on their flowers but made it right by not charging us this year. Me and Cherri fixed it nice though and it was all good. Tomorrow Journey and I will go shopping for a beautiful dress. The theme is "A night in the Clouds". It will probably be a blue dress, with multi shades and maybe a touch of white. It will be fun shopping for her first Homecoming dress. Oh an, she's gonna look so beautiful...I can't wait.
I love you my sweet boy, I love you so much.
I will write you later.
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you.
I love you more ~moma~

Hi my Nick

Nicholas,
Hi my love, I miss you.
Today I am going to take Greg and Jade over to Auqua Tropics to see if she is ready to breed. She wouldn't eat last weekend and that's not like her at all. So, they called and talked with the pet store and they figured with her age and the time of year she's ready and that's why she's not eating. I hope that'a it and that she isn't sick. I think I remember something like this with your snakes, and you saying they do this every year. We'll know more later today. After that I am going to take some of my business uits that are 2 times too big for me to a consignment store. After that my app. for IBB.
We have Homecoming this Sat. but next weekend we are taking our trailer out camping. I can't wait. It will be the first time in 2 years. But first we have to get through Homecoming weekend, which will be a joy and a blast. The kids will take pictures, have dinner, then go to the dance. They get home about 11.
Nikki showed me how to make Cd's and DVDs on my laptop, so I can get all our pictures off it and saved onto Cd's. I will make 2 copies one to have in the house, the other for our safe. If I lost my pictures I would be devastated. I have the hard copies of most of them, but there have been a ton more that we have all taken that go straight from our camera's or phones to the comp. Man is it ever time consuming, but worth it.:) I will get more done today and throughout the week. Then I'm gonna clean my other comp.Ugh!!
We'll Nick, I watched my first 49 niner's game Sunday...and they won, they are 2-0. It was so nice to watch them play AND win. I plan to watch a lot more football this year son. I miss the games, the excitement and everything.
Well, I better get busy Nick. I love you my sweet son, I miss you so much.
I will write you later.
I love you more ~moma~

Hi sweet boy

Nicholas,
My handsome Nick, I love you babe!
I went to the garden today, and there was a new baby there:( It made me really sad. The couple were there today also because their baby would have been a year old today. They were a young couple like you and Jess. I gave them both a hug!!! They released balloons for their baby today. It was so sad, I hugged the Daddy and told him to hang in there. I hugged the Moma and said I was sorry that she had to be there as well.
Anyway, Homecoming is Sat. both Greg and Journey are going this year. Journey is going with a group of girlfriends, and Greg is going with Christina again:). Man this is getting expensive having two Highschoolers!!! It's all good tho, they are Great kids. I love my "Teenagers" their awesome!!!
I had some running around to do, and phone calls to make. I picked the kids up from school today because I was over there seeing you and Shelby Girl.
I will write you later son. I miss you terribly. I love you.
I love you more ~moma~

Hi son

Hi Angel boy,
I love you my dear Nick, I miss you!!!
Today was a very busy day and it is now almost 8 pm. Time flew by because we had so much to do
My friend Nikki came over and we worked on burning pics to Cd's. She taught me the process and I am still doing it. It will take me a few days, there are over 24 GB of pics and movies on this laptop! It is overworked and slow as heck, but not for long.
Greg and Journey both had friends stay over last night, so they went home around noon. I have done laundry and cleaned. Journey made no-bakes, they are yummy:) Good job journey girl.
She's doing her homework right now. Greg and Lloyd are at the shop...again. Lloyd has been working on her golf cart again too. The kids run the heck out of it. But man do they have fun with it.
Man Nick, so much of my thinking and everyday life is about you, weather your here or not!!! It is so damn hard to try and move forward and heal when so much of you constantly reminds me that you died! Shit. Just when I think I am going along OK and making progress, I feel like I get catapulted back again! to the day you died. I miss you and yet I know I'll see you again! It almost feels like my mind plays tricks on me, or that I am going crazy. I just don't get it Nick. It is the most difficult "thing" concept I have ever had to wrap my brain around.
I love you my sweet boy Nick. I miss you more than any words could ever convey!
i will write you later.
YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL....FOREVER BEAUTIFUL!!!
I love you more ~moma~
