Time in a bottle

Thank you for taking the time to comment on my blog. I have been enjoying my browse through yours tonight! God bless!

Now to the important stuff. It won't be long Val. Your little princess will be a woman you are proud of. You will talk on the phone as much as I talk to my parents now. You will have some little dukes and dutchesses running around too.

Now your relationship has changed. But is no less important. She won't ever quit needing you. Even if it is just for company.

I love you Val. Enjoy this because you can.

(((Big Hugs)))

At 12:12 PM, Stacy said...: One of the earlier songs I learned to play on the piano, and even then at that young age, I understood the importance of those lyrics.

I'm crying with you Val. I could send my son to live with you though.

so touching...
At 10:12 PM, Valerie said...: Hi Stephanie - Welcome to my blog! I look forward to getting to know you better!

BWH - I figured you'd be a Croce fam. Your words are very wise, my friend. But please don't make me a grandma so quickly - as much as I'd love grandkids, I hope and pray that it will be a few years before I am blessed with them!

Ukok - Hugs to you, too, my friend!

Julana - How I pray to hear those words some day when I meet my Maker!

Stacy - Send him here whenever you get tired of him, OK?

Kevin - Beautiful and poignant, as always. . .

Paula - I've been missing you a lot, lately.

Barbara - I've been thinking a lot about Mary lately, and asking for her help as I go through this transition.

Mrs. D - Aw, I'm sorry!!!
