Blessed with Mark (Poo)

The events of life have a way of changing you.  At least my events have changed me.  Last year changed me forever.  I am so thankful that I was with my sweet Daddy  when he left us and went to heaven, but it was bitter sweet.  As I held his hand and encouraged him to go toward the light and that is was okay, that we would take care of Mom, I tried to be brave and strong and not selfish but it literally knocked the breath out of me.  I closed my Daddy's eyes and whispered go rest high Daddy and I am forever changed from that moment.  I couldn't catch my breath and  in many ways I wanted to hold Daddy's hand and go with him.  Poo was right there with me holding me and telling me what I knew but coming from Mark it made it all better.  Everything.is.going.to. Be.alright.  Along with the sad times in 2013 we experienced great joy also.  However, I said 2014 was going to be better.

Mark drove me several times to the emergency room this year.  We had no ideal what was wrong but knew something was!  The time we were informed of what seemed to be a leg-long list of problems I had, Mark was right there.  When I thought I was going to just die Before the Doctor stopped telling us everything Mark was right there and with a smile and He said everything.is.going.to.be alright.  When I wanted to leave the hospital and go far away and not deal with anything Mark was the voice of reason and calmness and said  it.is.going.to.be okay!  When my pain was unbearable and I was a mess He was a constant calm.  Even though I didn't know a thing for a week he insisted of staying by my side.

Poo has seen me at my best and worse.  He has never left my side.  God gave me Mark, blessed me with Mark.  God is good.  His infinite wisdom, blows me away.  Thank you God for Mark Poo Haley and for blessing me much, much more than I deserve.
