HAVE A TISSUE READY!

My brother sent me this email.  I wish the whole world could see this, there are so many things to be learned from this young man. THIS VIDEO WILL TOUCH AND PULL AT YOUR HEART.

Two little Iraqi boys are born with birth defects in the midst of the chaos of war, and thrown away in a shoe box. They are found, somehow; and an Australian woman goes to Iraq, adopts them, and brings them home. Now, about 17ish years later, the older boy Emmanuel lives his dream by appearing to sing "Imagine" on the X-Factor audition. Talk about staring unbelievable adversity in the face and climbing above it!!! WOW!

BUYING FOR GRAND BABIES THAT ARE STILL IN HEAVEN

Because I had my first child at 32 and my last at 39, it has created a new challenge. You see, at my age I should be a grandma by now.

I really want my kids to have their college years and time to go out and live without the responsibility of having their own families. Because we all know once you have that first baby, your life is never the same. But, for me I sooooo loved having my children that I would love to be a grandma now.

The other day I was out shopping and I saw this darling aviator outfit and just could NOT pass it! Remember when girls would buy and save things for the day they got married and would save them in a "Hope Chest"? Well, after seeing this adorable outfit, I decided I would start my own "Hope Chest" but this one will be for my future grand babies.

As I was going through the little outfits I had to chuckled at myself. Then in my head I  just imagined my grand kids in heaven saying "Oh look, isn't that cute, grandma is already buying clothes for us".
