Today was a bittersweet time for me in my life. Belle's communion was today and I was very emotional. I am so proud of my little girl as she is growing up and is an excellent student as well as having a very old soul at the age of seven, with so much faith!!!!!! it is amazing and has to sometimes remind me about God's love and his decisions for each of us. The bitter moment for me was that my dad who is suffering from cancer couldn't be there to see her on her special day. Time with my father is going to be very short as it is God's decison when the gates will open and welcome my father home. As I sat in the pew today and watched my seven year old, tears flowed down my face and I was reminded again how very special each of our relationships are with one another. I will spend the last days with my dad and try and remind myself of the memories that I will always have and treasure forever. I wanted to share these pictures of Belle and her daddy today with you, I hope you don't mind? They made me think of the times I have had with my father in my life. Thanks for letting me share. Big Tight Hugs to all of U....
Ps. It is really hard for me to open up sometimes and share my feelings, this blog has helped me let some emotions out....(smile)

Miss Krista: Thank you for sharing and for your transparency. I lost my dad to cancer when my youngest was 6 mo old - she is now 10 yrs old. Sounds like you are keeping your priorities straight in this time of stress and life transition. May God Bless you and hold you during this time!
Such a beautiful picture Krista...I'm thinking of you and your Daddy, you are all in my thoughts and prayers. I lost my Daddy to cancer 15 years ago this year...I miss him so very much...I know he is now at peace and happy and one day we will all meet again....lots of love and hugs to you Krista my heart goes out to you and your family xx
