Just Landen And Papa

I just can't stop! Stop loving you ever. Your smile tells your happiness. Your bright eyes tell about your soul. It is big and bright and kind and sweet and lovable! Yes my darling you are ever so lovable.

I think that you and papa have a close bond. I hope you always stay so close. Hold onto each other and love one another. You will always be papas little man! He call's you his little buddy, you even have a song! He sings it to you all the time and you love it! Grandfathers and grandsons it's a wonderful thing!

Smile That Just Melts Your Heart

I just can't stop taking pictures of that smile. It just melts my heart! I know I am Nana but I do believe that you are the most beautiful baby I have ever seen! You are right up there with all your Aunts and Uncles and mama I believe, gorgeous. Your mama had the most beautiful smile, I think you have hers, you definitely have her beautiful eyes. Your daddy's little grin. But mostly you are just Landen, so sweet and so lovable.I will be forever sad the day you get too big to hug your Nana. I really, really, really hope that day never ever comes.

We took you to Linesville to see the honking huge fish. You were amazed. You smiled and smiled at the fish, the people, so cute.The ducks were a hit. So glad we got to spend this day with you. I wouldn't have missed it for the world!




I am sure that all people know deep down inside that the little child in his mother's    womb is a human being from the moment of conception, created in the image of God to love and to be loved. Let us pray that nobody will be afraid to protect that little child to be born. Jesus said: "If you receive a little child n my name, you receive me.".....Mother Teresa

Landen Picnics By The Lake

Picnics At That Lake

                              
At first we would just run to the lake. Me and you and papa. Running from situations, running from life, from the hurt your mama had put us through, etc, etc.  I guess we were just running away.We spent a lot of days at first just sitting and talking, me you and papa. Not sure how everything would change for you, for us. We knew we had to plan for you.We had to plan again to raise yet another baby.At our age that was a BIG plan. But out of our great love for you and for your mama we kept going, vowing to you that we would never leave you until God calls us home no mater what.

I cannot imagine our lives without you. I believe that your mama did what she did because she was very young, to young to know what she had stepped into when she had you. It happens.Usually not for the better of the children. But I am not sure that is always the case. To be loved, that is why God put us here, to be loved and to find love later with another individual, then to give that love away. Life is not so complicated as I have learned at this stage in my life. When I am taking my final breaths, it doesn't matter what I had throughout my life, it only matters who I loved, who loved me, and whether I gave love away to others like I will give to you.

Children are precious just as you are to us. I believe your mama loves you as much as she can FOR NOW! That doesn't mean that she loves you less than what we do, she is just in a different place in her life. A place that sometimes makes us a little mad at her and that is difficult to understand, but still a different place.She is growing just like you. So for now we will just hang out at the lake and be sad and pout just the three of us until our plans our all decided. Papas going to catch him a big fish anyways and we wouldn't want to miss that. Papa will fish with you just like he did with all the other kids. Hopefully you are more patient then your Uncle D.J. LOL! He threw a number of poles at the fish! He was an awful fisherman!
Lets just watch the sun rise and we will think about it tomorrow, OK?
Nana and Papa adore you as we always will. Did I tell you lately how much I love you?

Mother Teresa said, "People who love each other fully and truly are the happiest people in the world. They may have nothing but they are happy people. Everything depends on how we love one another."

Landen And Daddy One Last Time

You know you mean everything to us my darling. You always will. I made this blog for you so that you can always remember what you meant to all of us. How much love you have and especially so that you can remember your life with us as you grow. Yes my darling with us! I am growing older and so is your Grandpa. We want you to remember all the great times you have had before we grow to old to recall them and life gets away from us so we are putting them here for you. It was about this time that your mama and daddy made some decisions that would change all of our lives forever. They decided that it would be better for you to stay with us awhile so they could finish growing themselves. This would be the last time you saw your daddy for now. He has a lot of growing to do and so does your mama. It doesn't mean they don't love you it just means that for now this is better for you. How much you look like them both. What a beautiful smile you always wear and you always will. We will give it time my darling. We hope they can grow and turn out to be the parents you so much deserve.

Face Of An Angel!

 

Enough said!

Your first Boy Scout camp out! What a smile, compare it to no other! So in love with you little one!

Daddy Graduates

This being where your story turns very sad. Your Daddy graduated June 3,2011 from Greenville, Pa High School that was the good part, the bad part was that this would be one of the last times that your daddy would hold you. Daddy made some very bad choices ones that I can imagine he wishes he could have changed but cannot. In those choices is also where your life begins to change as well. Your Daddy was very proud of this achievement and we were glad for him as well.
