Where Do the Children Play"

Love is the key when we're grieving.

Troubles disappear, we drop our problems on the floor of our emotional rooms, and we are overjoyed!

That's the power and spiritual healing of Love.

Our loved ones told us they loved us, and maybe said they will love us forever.

I keep finding notes, letters, cards from my wife and mother, all of the I Love You's......

Another Love note from Jami popped up today

I wonder how many more love notes I will find from my wife Jami.

Today another one popped up and it was from around last Christmas and it read.

"Have a great day today love, and I will miss you my love.

Happy Birthday Strawberry Field Jami
