Wow! 2014 is the last time I posted, that is sad on my part. So much has happened....

After my 50th Birthday I was dignosed with stage 2 lung cancer. I made a seperate post about that.
I have 8 grandchidren now! I love them so much, I wonder if they really know that.

Angie has a little boy now, Dominic, he is 3 now. She just had a house built and is still working as a Dental Assistant.

Valine opened her new hair salon, Meraki Hair Salon She meet a very nice man name Chad. He has a little girl, she is 9 years, named Kierston. They found a place together. And together they have a beautiful little girl named Ivy. She is 7 months old now and is the cutist little girl you have ever seen. Mylinah is growing so fast! She will be 8 next month. She calles me often and comes over quiet a bit. I so miss her living here.

They have a little boy named Cole who is 4 now. He lookes Just like his father! And they have a little girl named Nora, she is 2....she looks so much like Missie, even down to her curls. They come to visit often.

Matt and Courtney are working with Dan in the Handyman business. The Twins will be 8 in Aug and are the two most polite and sweet little girls you will ever meet. Alayna looks so much like her mother and Selena looks like her dad.

Robbie and Raechel got married AND last week on the first day of Spring, 03/19, they had a little girl! Her name is Lilith, Lili for short. I am going to see her tomorrow. No one could go to the hospital to visit because there is a deadly viris going around. That was so hard to stay away.

So Long!

Wow! I cant beleive it has been so long since I wrote! So much has happened. Mylinah 2nd birthday has passed and the twins will be 2 soon.

I celebrated my 50th birthday! What a blast! My mom, Michele, Dad and a very good surprize... my brother!!! Yes they all came to Florida to celebrate! What a happy 4 days! I had such a great time!

On a very sad note, before my family came I had to put Raina to sleep, she was not doing so well and was suffering. She was 12 years old. I also one week ago had to put my little Prissy girl to sleep. God what a hard thing to do, my heart still aches, she was 16 and had a massive stroke. The vet could not do anything and I did not want her to suffer. It is going to take me a long time to get over her being gone.

Prissy

Sigh........

Dan has started a new business... Dan The Handyman and so far it is doing well. Valine, Melissa and I started a jewelry business selling lockets and charms and well so far so good, we named our business Linah's Lockets and Custom Designs. 

The granddaughters are getting so big. Valine and Mylinah still live with us. Val graduated from cosmetolgoy school and is looking forward to working in a salon. In about an half hour I am picking her up so she can go take her test for her license. I know she will pass!

Melissa is getting her classroom ready I beleive this is her 3rd year teaching. She is looking forward to her exchange student coming. He will be staying with her and Brandon for two weeks.

Matt and Courtney are closing on their new house this Friday!!!

Angie is doing great!

Robbie a few weeks ago wrecked his car, not his fault, I am just greatful that he is alive. You should of seen his car!

I am ending this with one of my favorite pictures. I hope I never waite so long to write!

She Came Home On A Thursday

27 September 2012 (Thursday)
Valine moved back home, her relationship with Nick is not working out. I feel sorry for her because all she wants is her “family”. She has been so sad looking, but as each day that goes by she is getting better. Mylinah keeps her busy. I understand how she feels but she also does not have to live in a relationship when it is not healthy for her and Mylinah.
Valine will be starting cosmetology school soon and I think that will be good for her. Plus she can do my hair and I will save money!

Updates

So much has been going on since my last post. Alayna and Selina are growing so fast. They went to the Dr's today they are both a little over 11 Lbs! Mylinah's two bottom teeth came in and now she is working on the top two.
Dan and I went on vacation last month, we went to Tampa for the weekend, and we celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary. We had a blast; we went to the aquarium and the science museum. I want to go back when the girls are bigger so we can go to the Tampa zoo.

Halloween will be here soon and I can't wait to see the granddaughters in their costumes!
