I Was Fearfully and Wonderfully Made In My Mommas Womb!!!! A Tribute To A Wonderful Momma My Momma!!!!!

How in the world would we carry on if we did not know our Lord and have his love and compassion. It will soon be 6 months 1/2 year since our GoGo and my Momma went to be with the Lord. I tell everyone all the time that she is sparkling everything up up there. She was such a glitter girl and loved fashion and style. My heart aches a lot for her at times, but then I think that she got a new body, and is sitting at Jesus' feet and that brings a comfort so deep that it makes me feel so content inside. Everything I do reflects her and the upbringing that I received from her. We always did our work first growing up then played and rested. I clean my yard like she did, I cook her wonderful meatballs, I wear make-up no matter how I feel. I love lipstick and there is a saying that goes "Lipstick Fixes Everything." Try it all you beautiful women in our family when you are feeling not like yourself, go get all dolled up and put your lipstick on. My Momma ironed our clothes all the time, and we were never without clean clothes. She loved to go to Jazzercise and we went at least 4 times a week. We both loved to drink smoothies and eat unsalted peanuts. One time she bought a silver sauna suit and she wore that during our exercise class. I prayed she would not pass out!!!!!She loved to listen to musicand Sarah Vaughn was one record I remember her playing a lot. At Christmas time she rolled my hair up with pink sponge curlers. She cooked the 5 food groups at every meal and we were so skinny. I'm surprised we weren't chunks. One time on my birthday which is July l2th she made me a strawberry angel food cake and kept it cold in a cooler and we went out on the lake in their pontune boat. She did everything in very excellent taste and cared. When I married my husband we lived in Dallas and we had such fun shopping for my wedding dress and boy were there a lot of outlet malls. We always had out of town company and I did not like the way they would make my bed so I would sneak back in and remake it. Momma and me would laugh and laugh. When I had my hysterectomy she came and stayed with me for a week and we had such fun. The community we lived in was so kind to bring meals in for us every night and we would look so forward to see what the meal would be. We looked at magazines and talked and talked (can you imagine that?) One time when I was really sick we flew to Tennessee to see an inner ear doctor and she was so tired and worried that she put two chairs together in the doctor's waiting room and curled up and went to sleep. We both on that trip saw the miracle healing hand of God as my x-rays from Texas said I had a tumor in my inner ear and the Tennessee x-ray showed that it was totally gone. We laughed and clapped our hands and I think she skipped down the hall. I couldn't as I had to lay really still for 8 hours after the tests. She loved Chad and Natalee and named them both. Chad was named after Chad Everett on Medical Center a show, and Natalee was named after Natalee Woods a movie star. She loved keeping Chad when I had Natalee. What can I say I was blessed to have a Momma that was a part of my life in the earlier years. Events, and things can change and it seemed like in her later years we still loved each other but miles and things changed. We still talked and laughed and shared oh how we shared things and memories. It is all about grace that we must give to one another. I am so glad that she accepted Jesus as her savior when she was nine, and her name was in the Lamb's Book of Life!!!!!!!!I know when she entered heaven  it was the best day of her life. The Lord gave her a brand new body and she got to see her Momma that she missed for so long and brothers and a sister. She called me a detective before she died and I did a personality test at church and you will never guess????????? I scored high in C and high in S and high in I = CSI. Without a doubt I know that she was making me cheer up and laugh that day. Then the other day I walked out me back door and looked up at the sky and an airplane made a + cross in the sky. I thanked Jesus that he gives us signs and wonders and I knew that was from Him and my sweet Momma. I am going to see her again and what a glorious day that will be!!!!!!!! But for now we are all the sad ones missing and wishing things would have been different, but you know she knows the truth and Jesus showed her what all was really taking place. He is King of Kings and Lord of Lords and he is making every thing new!!!!!!!! We must give Him all the GLORY for all things. The things that concern us really do concern Him. If we will tarry just tarry He will tell us wonderful things and He will hug on us and give us hope. Our only hope is in Jesus our Savior and Redeemer. I loved my Momma very, very, much. Thank you my sweet daughter Natalee for making this blog for her. She is smiling down on you and is so proud that you are her grand-daughter. She loved Cheers theme song " Wouldn't you want to go where everyone knows your name and my sweet sweet Momma everyone knows your name up there in heaven. All my love to you Momma, Your loving daughter, Donna
