Happy 27th Birthday To My Son Dustin In Heaven

If only...I could reach out and Hug you and you could give me that "It'll be alright, Mom" That would surely make my heart smile.

I can't believe I've been a Mom for 27 years to such a great man, that I'm so thankful for even getting all the time with you I did.

Even though your in the Heavens, My heart still beats a perfect rhythm for you. Although, It skips a beat for you when I think of your beautiful, Mind and Heart it becomes perfect Harmony again.

I Love you Son.

Happy 27th Birthday.

-Love, Mom

Happy 14th Birthday 2012 To My Baby Son Alexander Scott Nielsen

"Happy 14th 2012 Birthday To My Sweet Baby Son Alexander Scott Nielsen"

A Deeply heartfelt letter to my baby Son Alex. 

I want to start out by saying that I have been truly gifted by two very special Men in my life. You and your brother, Dustin. The time, years and memories I was so fortunate  to have been gifted to me by the grace of our almighty God.

As you continue to grow into the Man you're growing into. I also continue to grow as your Mom. It is with great honor and I hold my position high in  regards to my two Sons.

When I was a little girl growing into the woman I am today. My dreams always entailed being a Mom and it has been my world for 27 years next month  on your brother Dustin's birthday.

For you two to have been 13 years apart and our culture,time and so much about life has advanced and with each day brings new beginnings, new life, new hope and we can and will always remain so very close to our memories in which we hold so dear to our hearts.

As your Mom, I really hope and pray that no matter how many miles or how much distance is between us we'll find a way to connect and always be right here for one another.

My heart longs for your hugs, for the warmth of your ever precious heart. The Respect that you have towards me, the people you love and all of mankind impresses me and shows me that you have such a wonderful genuine heart and soul.

I hope throughout your life, you find people who hold you with the utmost Respect as you deserve and You are your own person that I hold in very high regard. You remind me of your Brother Dustin. I hope you fulfill all your dreams as he did. Reach for that Courage and that Mentor that'll walk not behind you, nor in front of you but right beside you in all aspects of you growing into the young adult you are.

Always, Please know your Mom is here for you, always. You always remember that our Lord is always listening and is always there. Just seek and he'll be there for all of us.

Please always remember when things seem negative in situations. Just remember theres always forgiveness and we can learn and grow through trials and errors and we can always look towards the light and find the positive part of life and change that to our lifestyle for a healthier life and for the good of all others. Always be honest Always be kind. I know you do not have to be told this because you have a heart of gold and you'll do right by others as you wish they'd do right towards you. I feel your brother has and would tell you the same but I know you can feel his wishes for you in your heart. As that's how he meant it to be and I'm so thankful and grateful he spent so much time with you to teach you what he'd learned throughout his life. 

There was so much joy in my heart to see you two enjoying your weekends together. Such great memories I'll always hold onto those days very dear as you twos Mom. You two spoiled me. I see in you things that reasonable your brother. I think often what he'd think about how much you've grown up and how I know he'd be letting you drive his sport's car or truck. I'd be a nervous wreck but as a Mom, that's just all apart of letting you grow up but sometimes it's the hardest part :)....Now, I know how my Parents felt...Mama and Daddy said I'd get paid back one day, so, that day has came. You and Dustin being 13 years difference is world's apart because it is a different world we live in. You just please Buckle up and pay attention. Promise me that :) Son. 

Sometimes, in life we will not know all the answers and if we just put our faith and hope in the Good Lord. He will always guide us in the right direction. Just always believe.

May God Bless Baby Son.

I Love you

-Love Mom and Your Angel Brother Dustin

Happy 67th Birthday to Mama In Heaven

Happy 67th Birthday In Heaven Mama.

I can't begin to say how grateful it has been to be raised by such a wonderful Mother.

There's not a moment that goes by that your Morals and values you stood for and taught are right here at the forefront of my mind and heart most of all.

There are some very challenging days especially as now that I'm a just turning a year older than you were when you left to go be with Jesus.

Because of you is who I am today. We all are even the children you helped raise which into you gave as much love as you did your own. That I admire and will always.

The Buttercups are blooming, and that was one of your favorite things as you'd have us go dig them up to plant in our yard and all the neighbors yards. As you also had us do with all the blueberries, blackberries, muskedimes. You'd make all sorts of things with all of it all.

You were such a woman, a lady of improvisation and it still and always will amaze me.

Here is a picture of one of the peoples houses you fed every chance you got just so you knew your neighbors had food. To you and what you taught was always treat your neighbor as you would yourself just like the Bible says.

 Love you Mama and you'd be amazed at all your Grandchildren and I know you're with Dustin in Heaven so I know he's alright in yours and God's arms.

Lessons From Geese

Fact One

As each goose flaps it's wings it creates an "uplift" for the birds that follow. By following the "V" formation, the whole flock adds 71% greater flying range than if each bird flew alone.


~Lesson~People who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they are going quicker and easier because they are travelling on the trust of one another.

Fact Two

When a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of flying alone. It quickly moves back into formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the bird immediately in front of it.

~Lesson~If we have as much sense as a goose we stay in formation with those headed where we want to go. We are willing to accept their help and give our help to others.


Fact Three

When the lead goose tires, it rotates back in to the formation and another goose flies to the point position.


~Lesson~It pays to take turns doing the hard tasks and sharing leadership. As with geese, people are interdependent on each other's skills, capabilities and unique arrangements of gifts, talents and resources.


Fact Four

The geese flying in formation honk to encourage those up front to keep up with their speed.


~Lesson~We need to make sure our honking is encouraging. In groups where there is encouragement, production is much greater. Individual empowerment results from quality honking.


Fact Five

When a goose gets sick, wounded or shot down, two geese drop out of formation to follow it down to help and protect it. They stay with it until it dies or is able to fly again. Then, they launch out with another formation or catch up with the flock.

~Lesson~If we have as much sense as geese, we will stand by each other in difficult times as well as when we are strong.

Happy 26th Birthday To My Son Dustin In Heaven

Lucy & Smiley Face Balloon

In Loving Memory
Of My Son...

I Love You 

 

 Happy Birthday

Son

My Son Dustin In Heaven

Today is your 26th birthday and 26 years I've been a Mom.

Life here isn't the same without you. I long for your precious heart and so many wonderful things about you. You always had a way about you that was so loving towards me and anyone you ever met.

It is all that you were that keeps me going today. You were and will always be well respected by me and by so many. You never met anyone that you couldn't find good in and I'm so proud of you.

Today, marked your 26th birthday and your bestfriend (your dog)- Lucy and I set out to make this day good in celebration of the life you had with us and be grateful that God gave that time to us.

Earlier today, I spoke with a dear friend of mine, a lady that helped raise me from birth, she happened to just had her 83rd birthday just the other week. I thought of you the whole time speaking to her because you and I both love wisdom and love people no matter who they are. She lost her Daughter and also celebrates the life they had together. She reminded me that no matter where our children are, we'll always be the most loving Mothers by the grace of God.

I was also thinking today, about when you transferred to Denver with your job and you'd tell me about your friends telling the Restaurants it was your birthday every time you went out to eat so the staff would bring a cake and sing Happy Birthday to you and it wasn't your birthday. I laugh, because hearing you tell that story still makes my heart sing, and I told you live like everyday was your birthday. I'm sure that you had a lot of Happy times in your life and made the very best out of it.

I chose Monte Sano Mountains today to release your balloon because that's one of the places you loved and went to school. While I was there I also thought about how you loved the mountains no matter where you were from birth. From the mountains here in Madison County at Tater knob, Mountain Fork all over. Most of all you loved the Rocky Mountains of Colorado and called that your home here on earth.

Now, My Son, You're on the biggest Mountain of all looking down on us. Rest High On That Mountain.

I love you Son & Happy Birthday in Heaven.

-Mom
