I am Thankful!

MacKenzie. I am so Thankful to have MacKenzie in my life. What a beautiful person she is becoming. She teaches me so much about myself and helps me appreciate the step-moms in my life so much more. Its truly a blessing to be a part of her life, I pray that I can be a good example to her as my moms have been for me. I love you Kenzie!

Thank you Linda for showing me what it means to love all children as your own.

Thank you Glo for being such a great influence in Brandons life. We are so blessed to have you!

Our Family

Brandon and I have been married 9 years! A lot of growing has happened in those 9 years. We have had hard times and wonderful times and I am grateful for them all. I admit I didn't know when I married Brandon how wonderful he really is, that is why I know God loves me. I am really blessed to have an amazing man by my side.
Brandon and I recently moved to South Dakota to live on a Lakota Indian Reservation. We packed up our stuff with little plans of what we would do when we got here. We both felt like it was something we needed and wanted to do so here we are.
I am happy we didn't plan because everything has worked out exactly as it should. We are living on some friends property in a little camp trailer for now and Brandon is signing up for collage this next week. He really wants to learn their language and someone directed us to the collage which is accredited and fairly cheap.
Exciting to have so many new things. Our kids are doing great except we all miss Kenzie very much. That is the part I hate about being here. I wish we could have brought her with us. She's been sweet to talk to Ryker on the phone when he is missing her. We are so lucky to have such a loving sweet girl.
That pretty much wraps it up for us for now. Just on our next adventure and having a great time.

She is my Mother

Her arms are warm, touch so soft. Always holding me, keeping me safe.

I don't always feel her, I'm not in my heart. When I am lost I do not feel her, she is still there waiting.

If I lose sight of Love, I lose myself. There is Truth inside of me, if I can open up to Her.

She brings me my Truth when I write and pray. Words come from my heart, I am One with her.

Thank you for this understanding, these Truths I will not forget. Her loving arms comfort me, She is my Mother.

Mother's Womb

Intentions we share, our mother will give us what we ask for. Be cleansed and enter with respect, she'll hold us in her womb. Feelings deep come to be shared, each door brings something new. Even the deepest anger we feel brings us beauty, peace and love.

"Let go my child, I am here to hold you while you cry. Feel my heartbeat, let it sooth your blessed soul. I am always here for you, never far away. For you my little one, I will hold you through the storm. Feel my love infuse your life and you may find the peace you are searching for."

With this message, we leave the womb and walk upon the earth. Our special gift of Life and Love, we will share with everyone.

From my experience of a Native American Sweat Lodge Ceremony.

Mind Be Free

Shaddows disapear to light
Brightness now will bring me sight
Things I could not see before
Overwhelm me, I say "No More"

The burning that I feel down deep
Make it so I can not sleep
Light brings sight to me again
I stretch and ask "not now, then when?"
The more I see the less I know
I start to think of down below
Below there is no light to see
Would it be better just to Be?

Shadows disappear to light
Brightness now will bring me sight
Things I could not see before
Overwhelm me, I ask "What More?"

Emotions deep where did they hide
Now they surface, can't keep inside
Not now that I have seen the fire
With knowledge I will have desire
I search for more through all the pain
Hopes are high what will I gain
The gift of Life could be my prize
Will I sink or will I rise?

Shadows disappear to light
Brightness now will bring me sight
Things I could not see before
Overwhelm me, I say "There's More"

Blind in my dream or will I wake
This choice is mine that I must make
A journey I will take for me
The highest goal, Autonomy

Shadows disappear to light
Brightness now will bring me sight
Things I could not see before
Overwhelm me, I ask for more
