MOMMA,You would have been 84 this year.Happy Birthday!!Happy Heaven Day 3 years old!!No pain,no aging,no worries no heartaches!! I was watching the show "Reba" TONIGHT and smiled,the last years we lived together in the "home place" we would plan our evening around watching "Reba " together.(I always told myself you Loved watching it because my name was "Reba!!!(I guess me being selfish).I in the theme song "Reba " would sing."with a gentle hand and the heart of a fighter,I'm a Survivor"!!!You knew that part by heart.You would sing along on that part and pat your hand on your heart.
Yes you had a gentle hand (tears in my heart)when I was young and had Rheumatic Fever and couldn't walk. I remember you rubbing my knees and praying,sooo gentle.The last time we spent the night together when I came home.I was lying down on the couch and you sat down at the end of the couch and rubbed my knees and legs with alcohol.I knew you were praying for me.Some how I knew at that time,it would be the last time you would rub me momma.When I came back home and you had hours of life left.I sat by your bedside in the hospital and rubbed your little hand all night and cried and prayed.(Only God knew the pain)I knew you were on your way home.I Love You MOMMA and my sister.I know now you will never grow old.Waiting and preparing to be with you Momma.I LOVE YOU.....REBA
