No parent should ever have to bury their child

Unfortunately this week has not been good. My beautiful cousin Anna passed away at the age of 29. She left behind her parents Ken and Bonnie Perry, brother Robert Perry, and her husband Martin Gaines.



I just got back from her visitation at the funeral home, absolutely heart breaking. She looked so peaceful in the casket, it was hard to realize, she isn't coming back. Her poor body has gone through so many illnesses...that it finally just gave out. She had a heart attack Friday night...and she stopped breathing. I can't believe shes gone...she was so young, so innocent, hadn't even really lived life yet.



I really can't imagine what her family and husband is going through, its just not right. But I know she is in a much better place. She is in peace and has a healthy body. I know she is up there talking and loving on my grandparents and her grandmother who she is going to be buried by. I envy her...I miss my grandparents. She isn't having to go through anymore pain...and thats comforting...



I walked out of the funeral home, and just cried. It hurts...death hurts. I wish it upon no family. I know death is not bad for the person who has died, especially if they are a believer...you are going to an amazing place...but the family you leave behind, hurts...



Her poor husband, they haven't even been married that long...he looked in such a daze...Lord please keep your hands on him through this grieving process....poor man.

It has been a long week, period the end.

Rest in Peace Anna Perry Gaines you were loved by many and you will be missed by many.

The First

Well here is my first blog. I can only think of one reason I started blogging, Daniel. I just recently had the bomb dropped on me that Daniel wants to join the Air Force. I am SO proud of him for what he has decided to do. I am glad my man chose to serve his country. But, on the other side, I don't want him to go.

Since me and Daniel started dating we haven't spent much time apart, yes you may think suck it up girl, but he is my best friend, so get off me. So this whole going off to basic and leaving me, isn't the best idea in my head, but I want him happy, and if getting up at 5 am to screaming drill sargants is his thing, then go for it baby! :)

I will have to get many more hobbies when the time comes for him to leave. Maybe sewing? Running? Who knows...i'll figure it out. I keep being told im strong and will make it through this, im sure I will but im not so sure of it right now, but who wouldn't be a little scared?!

But God has my back and has my best interest, so I will be fine as long as I trust in God with my everything.

BUT, I will miss him...A LOT. So everyone keep the prayers for me coming!

Peace Out.
