Background music: "My Heart Will Go On"


Another piece of my artwork


This is a picture of Tyler and Ally. He's such a good Big Brother. And really he doesn't always dress up like this. He is dressed up for his winter program at school. Now Ally on the other hand does enjoy wearing dresses and dress up clothes frequently.


This picture is of me and my husband camping on the
V Annual Cool Peoples Canoe Trip.
It's every Memorial Weekend on the Illinois River, Tahlequah OK.

This is a picture of Tyler and Ally with their new cousin, Jackson Emmitt. He lives in Colorado so unfortunately we don't get to see him or his parents very often, but we do make the most of it when we can. We all think he's pretty special.

This is a picture of Chris and the kids getting ready for Christmas. I am of course on the other side of the camera. :)

To Remember Me

The day will come when my body will lie upon a white sheet neatly tucked under four corners of a mattress located in a hospital busily occupied with the living and the dying. At a certain moment a doctor will determine that my brain has ceased to function and that, for all intents and purposes, my life has stopped. When that happens, do not attempt to instill artificial life into my body by the use of a machine. And don't call this my deathbed. Let it be called the Bed of Life, and let my body be taken from it to help others lead fuller lives. Give my sight to the man who has never seen a sunrise, a baby's face or love in the eyes of a woman. Give my heart to a person whose own heart has caused nothing but endless days of pain. Give my blood to the teenager who was pulled from the wreckage of his car, so that he might live to see his grandchildren play. Give my kidneys to one who depends on a machine to exist from week to week. Take my bones, every muscle, every fiber and nerve in my body and find a way to make a crippled child walk. Explore every corner of my brain. Take my cells, if necessary, and let them grow so that someday, a speechless boy will shout at the crack of a bat and a deaf girl will hear the sound of rain against her window. Burn what is left of me and scatter the ashes to the winds to help the flowers grow. If you must bury something, let it be my faults, my weaknesses and all prejudice against my fellow man. Give my sins to the devil. Give my soul to God. If, by chance, you wish to remember me, do it with a kind deed or word to someone who needs you. If you do all I have asked, I will live forever.
