6/9/07 MY THIRD CHILD

My last little bundle of joy. She was my angel baby. She came at a time in my life when I was slowly changing. Older maybe.My marriage still was not good but I as many people I felt she would change things.. She was such a beautiful child and slept all night thru right off.. Before she came into this world I craved pizza, raspberries and apple juice.

She was a happy baby. She laughed and smiled most of the time. She was easy care. She loved to play with Tupperware and canned goods. I could see in her eyes she would be very special someday.Her name is Mica. Many of you have looked at her blog or are very familiar with her art.

I know that she always has had a angel looking over her. Even through her rough spots she was not forsaken. God sent many messengers to help her and brush her off and set her on a better path.

She has a beautiful giving warm heart. She calls me almost everyday if possible and we talk for hours. When she was in grade school she loved Elvis. Do not know why but she told me Elvis was her husband. When I kissed her goodnight I had to kiss Elvis too. Quite an imagination. Her teen years were tough but look at the mess I was in and the children suffered. Beginning relationships were abusive too. I prayed for for her that she would survive our life and her teenage years.

Then she found a wonderful guy Tony. He has given her the love she needs and has provided her with a home and they share their two children( Vincente and Abriana) They both have a strong belief in God and have raised the children that way as well. She home schools both kids, finds time to cart them to their outings and finds great satisfaction in that and her love of art.

I wonder sometimes where she got it but they say creativity is in the blood line. She has instilled a strong family bond in the children and I am thankful for that. I wish everyday that my children will remain close . She used to tell me--Mommy I will always live with you and daddy. I am never going to move away. Now she lives the farthest. I go once a year for a visit. My husband Tim likes to take a few days to visit all by himself so he goes alone.
Mica you have made me so proud of you. I still see the cute plump wide eyed curly headed little girl. You are blessed and you are loved. I miss your companionship.


POEM: Angel

God gave me a little angel and it is you
He gave me no instructions what I was suppose to do

Yours eyes they sparkled like a little star
I knew right then that you would go far

You always sat behind my legs and I played with your hair
You always gave me lots of hugs and I was glad that you were there

I cradle all the memories deep with in my heart
But I am sad at times that we are so far apart

I love you my angel now and forever
I will never be far and will leave you never


I Love you Mica....
