My aunt and I were having one of our deep discussions over 4th of July vacation. We were talking about my Grandma and what a strong vibrant woman she was. She had a strong southern accent with a 6th grade education but to me she is the wisest woman you will ever meet. I walked by someone the other day and smelled the slight scent of Railroad Mill snuff and it reminded me of my Grandma. Yes, she dipped but lord was she clean about it. You never saw this woman without two or three kleenexes, Bounty papertowels and a styrofoam cup. I don't need to explain what they were used for.
Anyway, my aunt and I were talking about the past and she reminded me of something Grandma used to preach to us. She'd say, "Never depend on a man and never wear cheap shoes or bras!" Gosh, I sure do miss that woman! So far, I think we've made her very proud.
I'm a 35 year old woman married to the man of my dreams. May 15th,2010, my husband Josh and I found out we were going to be parents for the first time. October 8th,2010, during a routine 25 week checkup we discovered that our baby boy was stillborn. Life as we knew it came to a hault. Now, 10 months later, we are anxiously praying that our precious butterfly leads us to our rainbow!

- Proud Mommy To An Angel
- I'm a big city girl who was transplanted to a small town at the age of 12. I tried moving back to the big city only to realize that I missed that small town in the panhandle of Florida. So, after 10 months of city life, I packed up and moved home.
