New years

The new year will be here shortly. I must say this year has been the best year I can remember.

I'm certain 2012 will bring just as much (If not more) Joy and happiness this year brought.
Many people make new years resolutions, some that get accomplished and some that don't. This coming year I plan to have accomplished a lot, I hope to have gotten my book complete and hopefully published, I hope to stop my bad habit of biting my finger nails.

I also hope to continue practicing on writing poems. Also I want to lose at least 10 pounds by mom and dads wedding. This year brought knowledge and happiness and bravery into my life, I have always appreciated troops, now I have a higher respect for them, and their families too. Being a daughter of a troop I realize the families and friends go through as much grief as the troops them selves.

This coming year (2012) I will be fifteen, another year older. My dad will be coming home to us sometime in 2012 and life will continue to get better from there. Surprisingly most days have passed fairly quickly, though I still think about dad and the fact that he is away, and it is very tough on us all some days are easy, easier than others at least.

It does help that now I can talk to my dad on Skype when he gets a free minute. I'm loving my new laptop he bought us for Christmas. He bought my sisters and I one for each of us, to go along with that I also got a new camera and headphones.

Also I am allowed on Google now so I can research things for my novels. I have a bigger book project starting after dad goes back overseas thankfully it will be a time period of six months that I have to accomplish it in. I hope to have my small book wrote and edited in February and I have two books that I had started before this small contest that I still need to get done.

Needless to say I have a lot of writing to do, I also have a wedding to attend (I can't wait!) I'll be adopted later in the year or early in 2013 by my wonderful dad and my family will finally be a big wonderful full family.


Dad,

I love and miss you and I hope your new year goes as easy as it can being over there, I thank you very much for continuing to show your love for us even as you aren't here too see us, I do miss your hugs and I miss hearing your laugh, stay safe my cowboy hero dad, I love you.

Christmas wonderland

As the night drags on I wait Christmas Eve. Tomorrow I will get to see my uncle Jay and aunt Diane again and hopefully meet my moms baby brother, my uncle Charlie. My dad wishes he could meet him, and I wish dad was here to share that amazing day with us. He instead is overseas rebuilding peoples homes, work places and so on.

I have a lot of reasons to be happy as I have a lot to be thankful for. My dad is a true hero and a bright soul.
My sister (Both but mainly my youngest) is super excited for Santa to come! I also can't wait, I can't wait though, the most to see what dad got us for Christmas. I also can't wait to see my sisters faces, it's always so amazing, we always smile, but at Christmas time our lives are, more joyful.

The bad fades to a light that leaves us all happy for one day. I'm happy all the time really, only a part of me is somewhere else, Lea and grandma and grandpa said earlier I was kind of grumpy, I have a right, 1 I'm a teenaged girl, hormones are CRAZY lol 2, It's pretty much Christmas, will be soon at least, and my dad isn't home to receive the hugs I wish I could give and he can't enjoy moms amazing ham and turkey.

I know it sounds like all I'm doing is complaining and making this Christmas seem like I'm "Not in the spirit", I am in the spirit really, I'm so excited, I'm close to bouncing up and down, I WANT my gifts, the biggest gift I get every year is my family, this year I've had the blessing to have a bigger fuller family.

I believe things happen for a reason, I believe things didn't work out for my mom and biological dad for a reason, because god gave my mom, sisters and I a husband and dad we all needed so very much. I know that, somehow dad is overseas for a reason, though I may not like it, I support him. I'm a proud daughter, I have TWO parents that I can look up to and know if I follow in their footsteps I'll turn out just fine, they are perfect in my eyes.

Perfect, no such thing? Maybe not, but for me, they are the perfect parents FOR ME. They may be crazy some days, aren't we all? lol.

911 was a horrible day, one we will all remember, especially the soldiers and their families.

America we stand


America we stand America we breathe America all I feel and all I see.
The sky so blue the grass so green America we are free.

The day so blue when your not here The night so lonely and filled with tears.
I know you are, fighting for our country, miss America, we are here.

The song so loud the water so clear I wish that you could be near.
Today we wait worlds apart as the war goes on I can imagine your fear.

The flag so tall the bell so gold What you hold deep inside is very sad and very bold.
Our American soldiers, our hero's at war, our mothers and daughters, our fathers and son's.

Tonight the stars are very dim the dogs howl with pride and I wish I was by your side.
Tomorrow I will wake, and hope for your sake the war we all fight, deep inside will be small left over movements, from this big earthquake.

The moment I see you standing so proud in front of me on American ground I will bow and smile and say, Our great American your home to stay.

                              America we stand.    ~Faith Rose~

I will post pictures of my family from tomorrow on Monday.

Dad,

I love and miss you, stay safe and know I'm thinking of you, every moment, especially through the holidays. You are a hero, a dad, son,husband and a best friend. You are amazing and sweet and I'll always be thankful for that hot July day. Until later, I love you.

Christmas time is near

The season is here to be happy and jolly, Though it is not Christmas without family, and I have my mom, sister, grandparents and aunt but I'm missing someone very important in my life and family.

A song for the soldiers and their families. Its called "I won't be home for Christmas"


I bet right now the snow is flying, I bet right now the sky is dark. Where I am the wind is blowing and it keeps us worlds apart. Well I miss Christmas on the mountains, especially out here on the sand. Will you put the star on for me? This year I know you'll understand but I wont be home for Christmas cause you can count on me.
From bellow wood to the desert sands, where ever people aren't free. I won't be home for Christmas cause you can count on me. Have you put the lights out on the house? And did you set that angel scene?
And when you send out all those Christmas cards, would you sign my name for me? And don't forget to tell the story to the kids on Christmas Eve. And do your best to keep them happy, don't make no sadness over me. But I wont be home for Christmas, cause you can count on me. From bellow woods to the desert sands, where ever people aren't free. I won't be home for Christmas cause you can count on me, I won't be home for Christmas, cause you can count on me.


This song just goes to show that, so many families this Christmas are going without their deployed family members. The kids bright smiles won't be as bright this year, The men and women at home waiting for their soul mates returns will make them worried this holiday season. So many Husbands and Wives will be fighting a war while their partner is home celebrating the holidays without them.

I have taken up trying to write poems now as well. I will post my first poem, then my second.

All I See Is my first poem.

 Everything about you, reminds me of the bright colors of spring.
 The way you hold your big army gun, reminds me of the warm summer sun.
  Your sweet smile and your brown hair, reminds me that, you'll always be there.
   Today we stand, in a crowded room and the only person I see is you standing in front of me.
    As you kiss me soft, and very sweet all I see in the future is you and me, you and me, we're all I see.
                                                                  All I See.


I thought of that one a couple of days ago, I enjoyed writing it and also enjoyed the reaction I got from my friends.

This next one I'm writing right now, and will complete it here.
It's called An Army Christmas.


As we gather around the Christmas tree all I can think about is you being over seas.
Bright smiles and warm hugs can not replace your wonderful laugh.
I know this year, you are fighting for, our very right to celebrate this night.

As I watch the children unwrap the gifts, you sent to them through the mail I close my eyes and want to die.
You can't be here to see their excitement.
We sit at the table, with your place set up, waiting for you to sit down.
You can't.
Life without you on this cold night, and thinking about the wars is such a fright.

Tonight when we turn out the light, our last moments thought will be you shining so bright.
An army Christmas is such a delight, because this time we have, a hero in flight.

Soon you will be, so close to me, I will be able to feel you breathe.
                                 An Army Christmas.


Believe it or not, I wrote both poems lol.

Our men and women are over seas, seeing death and we get to be home and see bright smiles and warming gifts.

This Christmas holiday, let's all take a moment to think about our troops, and maybe send THEM a gift or two of thanks.

Let's send our troops a small gift of thanks, their holidays deserve to be bright.


Dad,

I'm missing you very much, not a day goes by that I don't think of you. I love you very much, you are a true hero inside and out, All I want this Christmas, is my cowboy dad. Stay safe baldy.

The REAL world.

Tonight's blog may be either short or long, depends on how much I want to ramble. Before I start I'd like to warn those of you who may not believe in the paranormal, you WON'T want to read this.

I will be talking tonight about several different things, just hang in with me.

Okay, to start out I'd like to talk about my mom and grandmas new organization for a second.

Well, we got our first donation with it being up only one day (This was a couple of days ago.) I was super happy to see it was one of my dear pogo friends that donated to our organization for the troops. So, even though she doesn't have my blog address, THANK YOU Connie!!!

Now, The REAL world. Many of you may disagree but, spirits ARE real, when we die, sometimes our spirits are left on earth to do whatever unfinished business we had left to do.

It could be many of things our spirits felt they had left to do, maybe we were murdered? Well our spirit may feel the need to try an talk to someone, or show someone HOW we died. Maybe right before we died we told our family member we hated their guts? Well, we may feel the need as a spirit to show our family member that, we really love them and we were simply angry at that moment.

My grandma will not like this post, but I'm simply speaking as to HOW I believe, not everybody is Jehovah. Simple as that.

I know the life of living with the dead, I have done it for many of years, many of you won't believe this, most of you may think I'm crazy, I'm not. I will NOT name who I know, but someone in my family is actually a medium, actually I believe everyone is, we just learn to tune it out, act as if its simply not even there.

I am a writer, I could write about paranormal very well, I have lived with the outcome for a long period. I choose however, to write about love, love beats all. I want to bring joy to as many as I can, I know that by writing paranormal many wouldn't read my books. I praise Stephan King for writing how he does. Stephanie Myers, my mom and Stephan King are WHY I decided to write.

One of my pogo friends claim to live, and love a ghost. It IS possible, some days I don't know if shes pulling my foot or telling me the truth, I know ghosts are real, I know people can see and hear them, I know if you knew the person before they died (Which she did) You can love them even as a spirit. It seems a lot like a fairytale story sometimes.

Just because we don't see it for our selves doesn't mean its not real. I had witnessed some paranormal activities my self, I have seen things, Then I wasn't sure if it was my eyes playing tricks on me or if I was seeing what I THOUGHT I was seeing, Now I know however, when I saw a shadow that had NO way of being mine, or anybody else's it was the oh so friendly spirits I used to live with.

This post is already a very long one.

Dad,

I love and miss you, I'm glad you believe what mom has told you about past houses and dreams and so on. Stay safe my true hero. Stay warm and know I'm waiting for you to come home with open arms.

Supporting our troops

As a daughter of a soldier I know the feelings that military life brings. Often times you are sad and sometimes even very lonely. Our men and women are our moms, dads, sons, brothers,daughters and sisters.

Often times there is sorrow and sometimes it leads to suicide. Our troops need as much comfort as we can give them, they need to know we appreciate their time and that we are thinking about them and loving them every step of the way.

My family is starting a new organization called Operation We Send Love.

This organization is for our men and women overseas fighting for our rights. You can donate to our organization to help send care packages to our troops.

My mom is putting together a website right now for this, until it is up however you can donate to our blog ;
http://operationwesendlove.blogspot.com/


We would appreciate any and all donations. Your time to send five dollars is giving our troops that much more comfort until they are home and back in our arms again.

We are also providing for the children and family's of our troops, It's a hard life without them.

Thank you for taking your time to read this. Help us support our troops, they need it.
