In Loving Memory of My Mom

I'm There Inside Your Heart

Right now I'm in a different place

And though we seem apart

I'm closer than I ever was....

I'm there inside your heart

I'm with you when you greet each day

And while the sun shines bright

I'm there to share the sunsets too...

I'm with you every night

I'm with you when the times are good

To share a laugh or two

And if a tear should start to fall...

I'll still be there with you

And when that day arrives

That we no longer are apart

I'll smile and hold you close to me...

FOREVER IN MY HEART

In Loving Memory of my Mom and my best friend....

September 17, 1942 ~ October 27, 2003

The Broken Chain

We little knew that morning

That God was going to call your name

In life we loved you dearly

In death we do the same

It broke our hearts to lose you

You did not go alone

For part of us went with you the day God called you home

You left us peaceful memories

Your love is still our guide

And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side

Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same

But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again

My Apologies

I know that you all stopped by the blog today to read about Denny's amazing weekend at Atlanta. After his spectacular performance in the truck race, bringing home a third place finish for the NCTS team of Billy Ballew and the # 15 team and a stellar run in the Sprint Cup race giving Joe Gibbs Racing and his #11Fed Ex Express team a third place finish of its own and leading some awesome laps, he deserves to be praised.

But your blogger has a heavy heart. Today, October 27, 2008, is the 5 year anniversary of the death of my Mom, Virginia, to breast to bone cancer. So I am taking the day off to mourn my Mother and reflect on how special she is to me.

To Denny Hamlin, my friend and champion, I am so very sorry that I didn't write the post you deserve to read today. Know that I am beyond proud of you and I will write your rave review on Tuesday. You are beyond amazing and I couldn't possibly do you justice after that performance in Atlanta but I will do my best really soon.

To my faithful readers... please stop back tomorrow and read about our favorite driver. Thanks for your understanding.

Proud to be your Denny Hamlin blogger,
Becca
