Come Sit By Me A While : Each Tender Memory Glistens.
Good morning once again from my little corner of Wales.
These next few days are going to be filled with bittersweet moments and memories.
On Monday July 1st my sweet baby Erin would have been 22yrs old; this in turn brings varied memories and tumultuous feelings to overflow.
However July 1st from now on is also a day of happiness as we celebrate our grandson Kayden's first birthday ; such a precious gift for us all !!!
He is one of the most placid babies ever and is always smiling !!Who does he take after ?????That question doesn't need to be answered !!!!
I will be spending Monday with my son and daughter in law where we will enjoy little Kayden's 1st birthday and also leave birthday balloons off for Erin. This is why I wanted to publish this hub today.
As many of you know I have been spending the past couple of weeks creating collages ,cards and so many other creative projects and will share some with you today .I am practicing and finding different themes daily and love trying them all out.
I so enjoyed making Kayden's birthday card too ;fun and colourful !!!
Today I was to spend with a friend but last minute cancellations see me at home and now as I am back with you I am not disappointed as I can spend the day reading all your wonderful hubs also my precious friends. I have to apologise for neglecting you all lately. However I just want you all to know that even on the days when my days are taken up with other projects you are all always in my thoughts.
Today's hub has of course to honour my beautiful Erin ,sweet Kayden and also I would like to share some more collages etc. with you. I hope you enjoy my precious friends.
Right let's settle down right here by Erin and Val's garden which is covered in Rock Rose buds which are due to blossom any moment .
Do you all have your refreshments and before you say anything yes we are having another naughty day ; jam tarts , custard tarts and apple custard tarts !!!
Oh so naughty but also so very nice !!!!!Ha ha ha!!!
A Collage of love.
Every cloud has a silver lining
Each raindrop a glistening gift;
Each treasured precious memory
Encourages broken spirits to lift.

Erin these words for you
Tender memories glisten;
To the music in your garden
I eternally sit and listen.

Songbirds sing of your beauty
Your face in the morning dew;
My baby my heart so true
Forever my love for you.

Chorus :
Erin these words for you
Tender memories glisten;
To the music in your garden
I eternally sit and listen.

Sunshine warms each moment
Blue skies fill each soul;
Green grass so mesmerising
Breezes keep the magic whole.

Kayden's 'Clifford the Red Dog' birthday card . I had great fun creating this one !!!.
A gift so truly precious
Abundant our love for you;
An innocence to protect
Our love for you so true.

Little Kayden's sweet smile
Lights up the whole world so;
Each day a brand new wonder
We marvel and watch you grow.
Our sweet Kian at one month old. These sweet pics were taken yesterday and I had to add them !!!
Kian so sweet a treasure
A character oh so young;
On this ladder of your life
Your foot on that first rung.
x
Your climb as you ascend
Much to learn along the way;
To be guided through with love
Unconditional come what may.
Wow !!!! Days so alive ;emotions ignited !!!
A sparkling wham and bam
A life so full and so true;
My days today and forever
I'll gladly share with you !!!!!!
A creation of love.
As I lay my head
Down to sleep;
Sweet memories precious
Are mine to keep.
x
Colours so bright
Sunshine rays golden;
My days oh so true
My heart so beholden.
x
I thank all my friends
From either far or near;
I owe you all so much
Each one oh so dear.
x
Blessed our todays
And our tomorrows;
Allow each golden hue
To caress our sorrows.
x
I expect varied emotions
And accept my chosen road;
My eternal appreciation
Is what lightens my load.
Rock Rose.
A thought I'd like to leave today is that time does heal and a broken heart can heal !!
Obviously my life will never get back to what it was before Erin passed over but I am now in another era and all around me there are the wonders of new lives ; of little ones growing up and bringing with them so much love, joy and true beauty.
Amongst the sad tears there is also a deep pride of all the love that surrounds me and we will all make sure that each little one knows all about their Aunty Erin ; a sweet angel from above who looks after them all.

Thank you to all my friends too numerous to mention and I look forward to sharing many more colleges and creations with you for a very long time to come.
Lots of love from my little corner of Wales.
