every year we celebrate your birthday...8 years of birthday cake in your honor...because we choose to focus on your life and feel a little closer on your holiday (thats how we look at birthdays). It really is strange that your are not here. Aiyana graduated HS last year and is doing great in college now. We miss you still, though feel your presence - albeit diffrenly; we can still hear your laugh and that brings a smile. Continue to rest in perfect peace in paradise. ❤

I will never forget how you helped raised me, fed me, clothed me and loved me as if I was your own daughter. I wake up in the morning hearing your voice and that comforts me to know you are OK and watching over all of us. I know you are in a better place now and hooking up the heavenly gardens! Your boys will make sure to keep your garden on earth immaculate as you were! Love you always!
