12/11/17 I got some very sad news today. Joey who goes to ur church passed away. Vikki and the kids came over and we baked Christmas cookies. She made a batch for them and I made a batch for us. The kids had fun helping. We went to Wes and Gayla's afterwards to play cards

I made a few cookies like my Great Grandma Daisy did during the year when I was little.  She cut the dough in circles and then put a raising in the middle and sprinkle sugar on it.  YUM

I will sure miss Joey.  He passed away this morning at the age of 14.  He was always so sweet and I loved having him in my class in Kindergarten and first grade.  Even at 14 he would still come see me and talk to me and give me a big hug.  He was the most caring kid with his sister and brother.  God used him to touch my life in a very special way.  I am so sad, but rejoicing that he is with Jesus.
