Dad

My father passed away 20 years ago this month and I just wanted to say to those of you out there that still have both your parents to cherish them even if you argue or even if you don't because there are no words to explain the loss of a parent. Every year I try to find a way to remember my dad in a unique way..... this year I wrote him a letter in a christmas card and even though he can't read it I still felt better afterwards...this is what my letter says to him
     Dad,
        Not a day goes by that I don't miss you. It's been 20 very long years. I don't remember much except for the fact that you were wonderful. You were always happy to see me and always happy to play games with me no matter how sick you were even down to the last few days of your life. I will never forget you and everything you taught me. Lena is beautiful I wish you could see her in person. I think of you all the time. We missed you at the wedding. I wanted so badly for you to be there or anyone from your family to be there, but mom was the only one and Jasmine. Aunt Elaine and Uncle Ed were there too. I know you can't be here with us but I'd give almost anything to just have a conversation with you again to be able to hug you again. I hope that you look down and smile everytime you see us. Someday we will be reunited.
                                                                Love Spivey
ps I hope that you are with us in spirit that God may have granted you the kindness of watching over your family. Miss you and love you always.... R.I.P 12-07-1991


You see my dad died of cancer and the last few days of his life he spent in the hospital. I was four years old at the time and the last time I saw him we were sitting on his hospital bed finishing a puzzle book with a yellow high lighter. When it was time for me to go he gave me the book and the pen and the last words I ever heard from him were Spivey don't worry about me I'll be okay daddy loves you and I'll be home for christmas. He gave me a goodbye kiss and then I had to leave because he was too sick for me to be there anymore. I don't remember much after that except for the fact that he never came home for christmas ever again and I remember asking my mom why not. ....

So please let this painful story be a lesson to those of you who take your parents or family for granted you never know when someone will leave this earth. Cherish your loved ones.

While for some this is the happiest month of the year, for me it is somewhat difficult. As much as I love christmas there are definately some things I miss for sure. But I am thankful for what I have and it has been so much easier since I had my daughter because I have her here and she gets to open presents and what not. This year my sister will also be here with us for christmas it's going to be fun.

Wow

So I haven't blogged in awhile but I wanted to ask how everyones holiday shopping is going any tips for deals or anything feel free to comment. How many of you have your tree up already? Is everyone excited for the holidays ? Let me know what you think thanks

Movies

Well its been a few days since my last post so I figured I would write something. I love the Twilight movies and it really sucks that today of all days I didn't go to see the Breaking Dawn Movie Part 1 in the theater. I didn't even have the time to buy  tickets ahead of time so I guess I'll just have to catch it another day. This was a disappointment lol but other days will come ....don't spoil the movie for me by leaving any comments about it on here please

A sign of goodness

Well..... I am so excited that I have to tell everyone ..... I heard from my sister last night and she is getting us the money for the house and also that she is graduating marine corp mct training on tuesday. This means that I can really start to pack everything because we will be moved before chirstmas and life will start to get better. I can't wait until she comes home from all this training but I want her to know how proud of her that I am and that I am very happy that she likes being a marine and all. This is gonna be so awesome lol
