Hugs

Sometimes we all just need a hug. 

When Abinadi was young he loved giving hugs.  I was thinking of this photo of Abinadi giving Dallas a hug so I decided to post it along with a couple other photos of Abinadi giving hugs and the joy they bring to the people he is hugging.


This is my favorite picture of Dallas.  The pure joy on his face makes me happy.  I imagine that the happiness in this scene is what we would see in the Spirit World now.  Dallas loves hugs.  I can't wait to give him one when I get there.  In the meantime, there are plenty of other loved ones there who can give him plenty of hugs, including Abinadi.

Abinadi giving Dad a hug in 2013.  I love this photo also because of the joy on Dad's face.  I like to think that these scenes are what we would see in the Spirit World today.  The carefree happiness and pure joy that can be found on the other side.  Seeing these pictures of loved ones that have graduated from mortality makes me think of how happy they are now.  It also makes me long to see them again.  I miss them all so much.

Abinadi giving Juliet a hug.  Even Juliet has an expression of pure joy on her face while getting a hug from Abinadi.  And she doesn't even like dogs that much.  :-)

I just love the happiness that Abinadi's hugs gave people.  I'm glad a few of the reactions were captured on camera.

There's just something about hugs that brings comfort and joy.  I can't wait till I can give hugs again.  I'm going to give all of my loved ones hugs on the other side, when I get there, including Abinadi.

If you're having a hard day or just feeling a little blue, find a loved one and give them a hug and see how much better you feel.

That's my two cents.

Happy Birthday Mom

It's hard to believe that Mom would have been 80 years old today.  She died a week shy of her 77th birthday three years ago.  I miss her so much!  I am truly blessed that God chose her as my mother.

I'm so looking forward to the day when we are reunited again.  She was my angel on earth, and now she is my angel from the other side of the veil.



Happy Birthday Mom!

Love and miss you so much!

God be with you till we meet again.

Happy Birthday Dad

Today Dad would have been 79 years old.  Unfortunately, he graduated from mortality nearly 6 years ago when he was 73.  I miss him so much!  I think of him every day.  I can't wait until the day we are reunited again!



Happy Birthday Dad!

Love and miss you tons!

God be with you till we meet again.

Happy Graduation Day, Mom

Today marks three years since Mom graduated from mortality and crossed over to the Spirit World.  I miss her so much.  I cherish all the time I was able to spend with her here on earth.  Especially those sacred last few days of her life.  Mom truly is an angel.  She was an angel here on earth, and now in heaven.

I can't wait until the day I am reunited with her in the Spirit World.  I am so looking forward to that day!

Love you tons, Mom, and miss you so much!




Happy Graduation Day, Mom!

Happy Mother's Day

Mom and Tammy 1971.  I'm posting this picture because Mom liked it.

Happy Mother's Day to the best mom ever.  Tomorrow marks three years since Mom graduated from mortality.  I miss her every day.  I am so blessed to have her as my mother.  Mother's Day certainly isn't the same without Mom here.  I cherish the time I was able to spend with her and all of my memories.

Happy Mother's Day also to the mothers out there who sacrifice so much in raising your children.  Motherhood is truly a sacred gift from God.
