Hey Miss Ashley! You have been on my mind ALOT (more than usual) these past few days. Even though I do not come here every day and write in your guestbook doesn't mean that I am not thinking of you. There is not a single day that goes by that I am not reminded that you are not here with Courtney & I. It is still very odd without you. School will be starting in nine days. I am so saddened that you are not goin to be with Courtney in school. I believe that she misses you more than I do. She is definately not the same since you left and because you two are twins, I think a part of her is gone too! Courtney isn't much of a talker. So, it is eerily quiet here. I miss your voice and your talkin to me. I miss our dancing the most. You are my favorite partner . . . no one will or can ever take your place! Ashley, my heart is aching today because I miss you very much!!!
~ I love you Ashley Kathleen ~

Hey there Miss Ashley. No, mommy hasn't forgot about you. Actually, mommy has been thinkin about you ALOT! Courtney and I have finally finished her room. It is all done in her favorite thing . . . yep, you guessed it . . . SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS! ~Shivers~ I think I have figured out why I really don't like him to much besides that he whines constantly ( LOL ), but it is because he is yellow! I really don't like the color yellow except with the color purple. But he is yellow and brown! Probably the two ugliest colors together. ( LOL ) I know, I know . . . spider !
Anyways, I kept the corner middle shelf exactly the way it was when you left us. I have cleared the corner bottom shelf just for you. I have a framed copy of the letter that you sent to some of the family, one of my most favorite pictures of you in a beautiful frame, the first *Ballerina* given to me by your brother Aaron and his girlfriend Jen in memory of you, my huge octogon shaped jar with wooden lid that contains all the purples rocks I am collecting in memory of you and some other things all in memory of dear sweet Ashley who is now "God's Girl".
I am now collecting *Ballerina's* because I now picture you with no wheel-chair. I see you dancing gracefully all around heaven with your new legs like a beautiful Ballerina!!! I am in the process of making two scrapbook albums with the Ballerina and purple theme. They are gonna be awesome!
Everyone here is doing as well as they be. School is out and I know that Courtney misses you very much. Daddy and I are still feelin numb at times. But I keep remindin ourselves that you are free from pain and are sittin there with Jesus! Oh, how happy you must be!! I am ready and awaitin to see you again!!!
I think of you EVERY day! Several times a day! I love you Ashley Kathleen . . . BIG Hug . . . muah!!!
~ Love Ya Baby, Love Mommy ~

Missin you today Ashley. Thinkin about how you loved to "Rock-A-Baby". It still feels so unreal that you are no longer here for me to hold and do the "Rock-A-Baby". I wonder if that feelin ever goes away? Mommy is blowin you kisses and throwin you hugs, be sure and catch them and save them! So when we meet on the other side of the Rainbow, we'll count how many you have saved. Okie Dokie!?!
I love you Sweetie . . . muah !!!

Oh Ashley,
I miss you so very much. It was strongly suggested that I take some time each day to talk and write to you. I don't even know where to begin. There is so much I want to say and so much that needs to be said. It would be nearly impossible to say exactly what I am thinkin and feelin. The shock of you leavin us has worn away. It is too quiet here. Although there are times that I am positive that I can hear you talkin. I am sure it is my mind just messin with me. My heart aches
literally every time I walk into the room you share with Courtney. There is a big empty space where your crib used to be. I feel so guilty for taking it apart and taking it out of your room. I was plannin on re-arranging the room around for Courtney, but every time I go in there to do it, I just can't bring myself to get it done. I have only packed up your clothing and toys. I am leavin the remaining of your things in the room. Like your first Barbie, first Raggedy Ann, first Doll, etc. All those things are still on the shelves and will stay together with Courtney's Dolls and other stuff too. It is bad enough that "Thing One" and "Thing 2" are split up for real now, I wouldn't think about splitting them two up in your room. I promise that as long as I live they will always remain together; side by side on the shelf!!! Ok, I think that is enough for today. I love you Ashley Kathleen . . . BIG Hug . . . Muah!!! ~ Love Mommy ~

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
