I'd have to check and see if there is a Director in your area. I know she is stage fright but it seems like she's wanting to get over it and she seems like she's a wonderfully brave little girl. They've done a lot for my kids. Ezrah is extremely shy but is a totally different person on stage. If you want to and you get time go to www.americankids.com and check them out. We could meet up at Nationals in Branson! :smile: Or let Lily check Ezrah out by searching Ezrah Noelle on youtube.com. She started at age 2 so there are lots of videos. Lily would like her Musical Theatre songs I think. It's like one big family... something to think about if they are also in your area. Still thinking of you all and praying for you...

I'm so glad a friend started the original facebook page and gave me a forum for my thoughts. I miss George so much, and I'm still struggling to believe he is gone. My friends, writing here, and my daughter and family make life worth continuing. my husband was a wonderful person. Lots of us, like you, have lost wonderful people in our lives. I am glad if I can bring you any comfort, as I have been blessed to have so many people do so for me. xoxo Lisa Joan, thanks for your kind words.

He will always be with you and with your beautiful daughter, smiling down on you from where we all come and to where we all go with faith and love. I lost my soulmate to a violent crash and struggle in the hospital, when he was 27 and I was 24. Though it's over 20 years ago, I do feel him still able to connect with me in my life. He told me in a dream I could trust that feeling, so when it's there I do. That great old song you mentioned has given me a lot of comfort too. I would never have known about George, so thank you, and thanks to the internet for helping remember such important people in our lives. One look at his big smile in the photograph in your happy times and you can see what a kind, loving person radiates there. I love the pages celebrating your husband.

We were talking about when Mike was young and never wanted to be a super hero or hero of any type. When we asked him why he told us that the mother was always dead. He didn't want Jan to die. :( I hope Lily does grow up to be in Wicked. It's my favorite and I will come and see her. Kinda thought Christmas and New Years was going to tough, and like you I saw it in the pictures also. I wasn't going to say.....but since you brought it up, I too noticed it. Compared to other pictures of you before the crash. The smile is on your face but not in your eyes. I hope in the coming year the smile will find it's way back into your eyes. Your smile is just a little lost right now, but I'm sure it will find it's way home...much love and thinking of you, D Funny, my best pal Jan and I went to see Sherlock Holmes with her son and his lovely girlfriend Jess.

Sometimes we drink in rapid ravenous gulps and other times with hesitant sips but we nevertheless drink b/c it's life. You will survive this time, as will Lily because that is the choice you have made and you will again drink in life. WISHING YOU ALL THE BEST in 2010.
