My heart is heavy. My brother, David, and his wife Robyn, lost her momma unexpectedly yesterday. They are devastated. Please pray for them. I wish I could take away their pain.

Yesterday was a rough day...but thank you Karson for catching fireflies with me when I felt better last night. It fed my soul! You are the sweetest little girl! and i love you.

  1. I'm so sorry to hear about David's mother in law. I will pray for them ~ I will ask God to give Robyn strength and to help her remember with love all that her mother was to her. With God, time heals.

    I can just picture you out catching fireflies .... you are such an amazing woman. I love you Janet. I wonder if you know that you changed my life ~ you gave me a new life, actually. I never could have gotten away from that horrible place without your help. Everyday when I pick up my bible and see the words you wrote inside, I smile. From my heart and my soul, I smile. Thank you so much for giving me strength, and for carrying me through on the days I didn't think I could do it. Thank you for giving me courage to move forward, and to stop looking back. Thank you for loving me. And thank God for bringing us together!

  3. My hero Janet.
    This correspondence may come as somewhat of a surprise. But as you well know life is full of them. The remarkable thing is how beautifully you continue to react and grow with them.

    I remember the first time I spent a significant amount of time with you... We were with the Palmer's at an air show. You as Colette's guest and me as Shane's. You, a young little lady around 10 years old and I thought what a spitfire....... or firefly. You have always in my mind carried such an incredible presence of deep strength. In getting to know you a bit more in the years to follow and witnessing the adversities you conquered in life you impress me beyond belief. You are a true role model through every up and down day of your life. I could not think of a better equiped person to command this battle and conquer yet again. I admire you for all that you are. Keep hold tight of your wonderful sense of humor.
    MUCH LOVE and HAPPINESS
