Not goodbye---just see you later.


On September 10, 2011, this world said "see you later" to a beauiful girl. Delaney Patricia Lemus joined the angels that day. We will never know the pain that she suffered, but what we do know is, she is now with her Savior. Laney is smiling down upon us all and saying, "cowgirls don't cry..."

Early that morning Owen and I were laying in bed talking on the phone to my sister, Ami. We were discussing the unbelievable thunderstorm that we experienced in the early morning hours. Ami had to called to check on Owen and I because she knew Matt had left for work very early that morning (3:00 am). Without either of us mentioning we were both wondering if the weather was some sort of a "sign." Within minutes I received the most devastating news from my mother-in-law, Carol. She had shared the news of Laney's passing. I looked down at my miracle that very moment and realized that every breath God gives us is a gift!

Not a day goes by that we don't think about Laney and the BLESSINGS in our life. We are praying for her family and hope that each passing day finds some sort of relief for them!

So Laney this is for you:

"Cowgirl don't cry...ride, baby, ride! Lessons in life show us all in time. Too soon God will let you know why. If you fall get right back up on. The Good Lord calls everybody home. Cowgirl don't cry"
