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)

A Tale of the Shears

Glenn brought out the shears and scalped three out of four pups today!  Usually I take Chloe and Hailey in for their summer hair cut at this time of year, to keep them cooler, but I figured being they only shave them short...instead of giving them the regular Cocker haircut, why not save $65, and let Glenn loose on them?!

Hailey (my Cocker Spaniel)

Chloe is last to be done since she hates grooming the most.  Thank God she is deaf, so the sound of the shears won't freak her out.  But....knowing Chloe....she isn't just going to lay down quietly. 

If you happen to hear a dog howling tomorrow...it will likely be her!
