Never would I have known, that I would miss you so, now that you're gone. Three years have gone by, But the memories are still painfully raw. Mummy, I miss you and love you. If tears could build a stairway, and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. I thought that I would miss you so, and never find my way. And then I heard the angel say "She's with you every day." The sun, the moon, the wind, the stars, will forever be around, reminding you of the love you shared, And the peace she's finally found."

We now have a new little sunshine as part of our family. She is 5 months old now - Naomi Grace Joshua- full of giggles and smiles. She loves to munch on things - her hands, toys, anything she can lay her hands on. She also seems to be full of wonder at all the food we seem to be eating.

He was frustrated and kept trying earnestly to go the wrong way, but he kept sliding till he reached the ground. Reminds me how we live our lives sometimes. We hear God's voice, we know what He tells us to do. But, just like my little guy, we insist on going the other way. And sure enough, we slide downwards. Only to stand up again and shake an angry finger at a loving God.
