About Me

My photo
My name is Melody and I like to write! I love how words can come together in a conversation, story, or song and can create something that generates a response in those that are exposed to it. Words have the power to do so much. It is up to us to determine how we choose to use them. I am truly blessed to be a child of God, wife to my husband of 21 years , and mother to two great kids. With God first in my family, I am victorious~

Fall is Here!

It finally feels like Fall in Texas! I just love this weather. The brisk mornings and sunny days with cool evenings..absolutely perfect. Of course my allergies are not allowing me to enjoy it as much as I would like but I still love it. The first weekend in October is done and now the rest of the month feels so jam packed with activities well into the holiday season, that I just want to be sure to take it all in and cherish the simple things in life before it all seems to pass me by. This time of year everyone seems to be so busy and always rushing. It's a shame that people can put so much energy into being so negative instead of taking all of that energy and using it for something more positive. Well I am not going to waste my time complaining about things and carrying on about how things should be. I want to be a part of the solution and I want to be able to find ways to make things better rather than just do nothing but complain. If you're not a part of the solution, then you are part of the problem, right? Well it is time to solve some problems people so look out world because here I come.

Yesterday was a month since the funeral and it is still very fresh in mind. Every Sunday on our way to church when we drive by the accident site I start to cry. It is still hard but every passing day I pray that God is there to help us all through this especially Jr and Iva and the kids. I have not brought myself to go to the cemetery since the funeral because it still seems like it never happened and I think Daniel will come through the door to help his dad and brother make fun of the cowboys and gloat about the Eagles. The holidays are going to be difficult this year with one less member of the family there. He will always be in our hearts and there will always be a place for him.
