We love you Joshua. Not a day goes by that I don't wish you were here with me. Every place I go brings a longing for you to be with us on our outing. Every place I look brings thoughts of you... your hopes, dreams,ambitions and memories of the past. Looking through your school papers makes me cry. You were a good writer. Grandma Lynn would have been proud...IS proud...I guess she is telling you that right now in eternity. Here are two of the poems you wrote for school...

God, I miss him. Sal and Jeff, I'm just paralyzed with this post.
I'm so sad he is gone - I miss him
I'm so sad I can't tell him HI on the email..
I'm streaming tears knowing he can't hear my praise of his poems.
I miss him so much.
Did you know my eyes are hazel too?
Sal, What a great photo of Joshua, and I absolutely love his poems! It helps me get to know him a little better. How do you print just one post or something from a blog? I'd like to take home a few pages for the boys to see. Love you, Kelly
P.S. I think most of us have hazel eyes. ;^D
Terry, Thank you for calling the other night. :) It was good to hear your voice and know that you share some of my grief. (Sad for you though :)) Lynnie picked out a small picture frame with this same photo of Joshua and she takes it everywhere with her. Life will never be the same again ever without Josh. :( Love you :)
Kelly I love his poems and his writing. He was straight A in his all his language arts. He changed a little since those were from 3rd grade. His favorite things were probably swimming with friends and going on adventures hiking and riding his bike. I don't know about copying one line here and there. Maybe right click and try to copy. Then paste in a document on the computer and print it out. I love you.
