The best kind of people are the ones that come into your life and make you see the sun where you once saw clouds....the people that believe in you so much you start to believe in you too simply for being you...the once in a lifetime kind of people....

I remember watching the our first superbowl together we were both cheering for the steelers and having so much fun. Then the next year me and you watched the game together in my dorm room and both rooted for opposite teams just to see who would win. Obviously you won ;) And now today im watching the game and hoping your with me watching it also, I know how much you would have loved that this superbowl in at our home stadium. i love you nick!! hope your watching the superbowl up there, go seahawks!

Last night bella said she saw nicky in our dining room dressed in all white...and he told bella to tell me he loved me...i cant tell you how much i needed to hear that i had a rough night and to have nick say that meant the world...not only that but for the first time since nick has been gone last night was the first time i felt a gentle touch from nick...your presence was so strong last night and much needed nick...then to find a yellow feather in my car this morning...you are so strong nick in every aspect...i love you beyond measure....:)

I can remember the time when Nick was in his sophmore year of High School and it was the middle of
winter.  He had the flu and was so tired and sick. During the day I had taken him to the dr. and she had
given him some cough syrup and antibiotics.  So he took his medicine when we went home and his cough
medicine before he went to bed as it made him sleepy.  Nick woke up in the middle of the night because
he said he was so thirsty so he went to get a glass and something to drink, when all of a sudden Bob and I were
woken up by a huge crash and boom...so we raced out to see what had happened and nick was so unsteady
on his feet and drowsy from the syrup that he banged his head on the table and fell right to the floor and was
passed out....I can remember feeling so scared, but i felt his pulse and called 911 immediately.  So as I was
trying to get a wet rag on his head, cuz his fever was so high, and waiting for the ambulance and police, Nick
woke up a little, I held his hand the whole time and he was saying "mom don't leave me, don't let me die, I'm so
scared"!, I held his hand and said to him, "don't worry Nick, I won't let anything happen to you, and you won't
die, don't be scared".  I can remember begging and praying to God not to let anything happen to Nick that
night and God granted me that wish, but 5 years later, I guess God decided he needed Nick in heaven....and Im
so sad that Nick is gone, that he had to die so young, and I know if he was with me, he would have lived, I
would never of let go of his hand:(

Throughout the christmas season don't fall into despair, relive the special times we shared i promise i'll be there...you'll find me in the stories of loved ones who stop by.....i am the flickering candlelight, my spirit did not die...continue with traditions and gather round the tree i want you to be happy, you were everything to me....fill the house with warm thoughts and know that im a part of all the joy the season holds here always in your heart....
