In 2007, I began my original website, Sonshine's Haven. In 2007, it was turned into a blog and used to keep family updated on my first husband's fight with liver cancer. He passed away November of 2009. We were married for 34+ wonderful years and this journals some of that grief process I've gone through.

I have since remarried another widower, but Mike is missed dearly, and will always be a big part of my life.

At times, all of us will be called to act as witnesses to the suffering of another. We will be unable to affect the outcome physically. Words will fail us. Prayer will seem futile. And yet, the act of bearing witness to someone else's trials is a sacred sorrow that offers and astounding glimpse of eternal joy." by Ginger Garrett

"Being willing to stay with a loved one throughout their travail, can be difficult....YES! But offering yourselves as faithful companions on a dark and dreadful journey can be an unmeasured blessing." (paraphrased by me)

Alyssa Kaylin




A picture of Matt holding Alyssa, while Drew pushes the button to announce her birth to the hospital by playing a lullabye.

Alyssa was born Friday, August 27th, at 12:59 p.m., weighing 8 lbs. 15 ounces, 20 1/2 inches long.  She has lots of brown, wavy hair.  She is beautiful!

Momma and Daddy are doing wonderful!  Drew is loving being the big brother (as his shirt reads).  It's taking him a little to get use to Alyssa when she cries....by putting his hands over  his ears.  So cute!  He has been so excited all day.

Thanks to everyone for praying for her safe arrival.
