Happy Birthday
Normally I do not write on Sunday’s, but today is a special occasion. 40 years ago today (January 14, 1967) at 11:59 am, Amy Suzette Van Besien was born. In talking about Amy’s upcoming birthday with her mom the other night, Sandy said ‘She was a beautiful baby!’ I obviously didn’t know her as a baby, but I did know her as an adult and I agree with Sandy, she was beautiful! Her eyes and smile ALWAYS did me in and continue to do so today in the pictures of her that I have gone through.
Today has been hard and I’ve been thinking about Amy’s birthday for the better part of the week; what we would do and how best to honor her. I went and bought some pink roses (Amy’s favorite) then the kids and I went to her gravesite and each of us laid a rose on her grave. After laying down the rose, each of us (who could) said a few words. I have some others ideas/plans for tonight that will help the kids remember and honor her.
Gone, but never forgotten
Missed, but ever near our hearts
Happy Birthday my love…
When God Made You -
It’s always been a mystery to me,
How two hearts can come together,
And love can last forever.
But now that I have found you I believe,
That a miracle has come when God sends the perfect one.
So gone are all my questions about why,
And I’ve never been so sure of anything in my life
Oh I wonder what God was thinking, when he created you.
I wonder if He knew everything I would need,
Because he made all my dreams come true.
When God made you, He must have been thinking about me.
I promise that wherever you may go, wherever life may lead you,
With all my heart I'll be there too.
And from this moment on I want you to know,
I'll let nothing come between us, and I will love the ones you love.
So gone are all my questions about why
Oh I wonder what God was thinking when he created you,
I wonder if He knew everything I would need,
Because He made all my dreams come true.
When God made you He must've been thinking about me.
He made the sun He made the moon,
To harmonize a perfect tune,
One can't do without the other they just have to be together.
And that is how I know its true,
Your for me and I’m for you and my world
Just cant be right without you in my life
Oh I wonder what God was thinking, when he created you.
I wonder if He knew everything I would need,
Because he made all my dreams come true.
When God made you, He must have been thinking about me.
For the love of Amy - V
