When tomorrow starts without me...
When tomorrow starts without me,
and I'm not here to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
all filled with tears for me.
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
the way you did today,
While thinking of the many things
we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
as much as I love you,
And each time you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me,
please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name,
and took me by the hand.
And said my place was ready
in heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
all those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,
a tear fell from my eye,
for all life, I'd always thought
I didn't want to die;
I had so much to live for
and so much yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible
that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays,
the good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
I thought, for just awhile,
I'd say good bye and kiss you
and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized
that this could never be,
For emptiness and memories
would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things,
that I'd miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
my heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,
from His great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity
and all I've promised you".
Today for life on earth is past
but here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
but today will always last,
And since each day's the same day,
there's no longing for the past.
But you have been so faithful,
so trusting, so true.
Though there were times you did some
things, you knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven
and now at last you're free.
So won't you take my hand
and share my life with me?
So when tomorrow starts without me,
don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right here in your heart.
Happy Birthday
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to my Toots happy birthday to you! So how many birthdays have we not been able to celebrate together? This is just like you to be away. That won't stop me and not celebrate this wonderful day.
I will send you balloons later today so please be sure to catch them ok? It is a beautiful day today. The sun is out and a bit of a chill in the air. So, were you on "the first load" already? How many angels have you put thru AFF training?
Not much has changed for my heart from the day you were "called home" The love I have for you has not deminished, the ache it feels over my loss is still there and missing you daily.
I will continue to look for you in all the sunrises and sunsets, the laughter in children, elderly couples holding hands, in the eyes of Hailey and Romie, a gentle breeze, dogs chasing after balls, taste of vanilla swiss almond ice cream, smell of the ocean and fresh cut grass.
I will continue to DREAM, BELIEVE AND PRAY. I will live life to it's fullest and never take a moment for granted. I will appreciate and grow thru all my experiences be them difficult and painful or joyous.
Herzichlichen gluckwunsche zum Geburtstag, mein Schatz! (you loved it when I spoke in my "mother tongue") Celebrate your birthday in a big way! I know you have your family and friends among you and most important your Heavenly Father. Is heaven AWESOME or what? I will celebrate it as well.
Happy birthday, my Toots! I said, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" (I know you hearing is not what it should be a man at your age...hee hee) love and miss you always and forever and ever. xoxoxo your Toots.
