My Obituary Says......
One year Anniversary
DATE: 26 May 2006, 12:01 am / MOOD: Happy
On Saturday, May 27th, it will be one year that I joined AllDeaf. It has been such a wonderful experience for me. I have met so many wonderful people, made so many close friends, it feels more like family, than just friends. We share so much on alldeaf. We share our happiness, our sadness, our achievements. Although, some of us have never met face to face yet, in our hearts, we feel like family to each other. The members, and their threads and postings, have helped me to become more objective and more open to what the members have to say. There are times we need a hug, when we are sad or happy, and we are there for each other. The love and support we show to one another goes far beyond just mere friendship, it goes to the heart, the core of our feelings. It goes beyond friendship, it actually goes to the heart of who we are. Just a bunch of loving caring people. We may not see eye to eye at times, and that is going to happen no matter where you go. The members are there for each other, whether it's an outstretched hand, a hug or just an act of kindness, alldeaf brings people together, and may they stay together. I am so happy that I joined as I have never felt so welcomed in all my life as I have with the members who welcomed me on Alldeaf. I cannot thank you enough for bringing me into your life, and sharing your beautiful stories with me. Thank you for making me a part of your family, as I have made you a part of mine. I can't wait to meet all of you at the AD Caucus!! Until then, always love each other, support each other, and be there for each other. I love you all!!! CODA

Graduation
DATE: 18 May 2006, 11:47 pm / MOOD: Happy
It seemed like only yesterday my youngest daughter was going on to Kindergarten. She was so happy to be going to school, make new friends, meet her teacher, and draw pictures. Not what I expected from a 5 year old child. I expected tears, and "mommy, I don't want to to go school". But, instead, a big smile on her face, she turned to look back, and gave me the biggest smile and wave. It was I who cried, and I who missed that joyful company of my little one. Now, this coming Saturday, May 20th, the tears will be streaming again. Not to watch a 5 year old going to school for the first time, but, to watch a 21 year old young lady, take her last steps, onto the graduation podium from Endicott College, to receive her degree. My heart if filled with love, pride, joy and sadness. The sadness, when she has to leave the school she has come to love so much, leave the friends she has made, and make a new life for herself. Also, the last time she will flick that light switch off before she has to say goodbye to the home she has made for the last 4 years. Where has the time gone? It has scurried right by. Days passing, nights passing and another day dawning. Yesterday it was a little 5 year old going to kindergarten, today it's a 21 year old young lady leaving college. I wish my daughter the best of luck in her upcoming future. I pray that all her hopes and dreams come true for her. When she receives her degree, and the ceremony is over. May she never say "good bye" to her friends, but, "see you later". I as her mother have now realized, it's time to let go, leave the nest and allow my daughter to experience a wonderful life that she truly deserves. To my daughter: I cannot tell you enough how proud I am of you, I cannot tell you enough how much I love you. But, I will tell you to live your life to the fullest, always be happy and accept life's challenges head on and with a big smile!!! Tears streamed down my face when she was 5, and they will stream down my face at 21, and they both will for the same reason. "My child".

Rainy Day today
DATE: 09 May 2006, 9:20 pm / MOOD: Dont know
It was a cold, rainy day today. It was a good day either to stay in bed, or take a long nap. I took my dad to the Senior Center today, along with my hubby. We played bingo together. I won a game, so I guess it was a good day to get out of bed. I was watching the National News at 6:30 tonight, and they showed a story about Gallaudet College, and how the student body felt in regards to this New President that has just been selected, Jane Fernandes. She seems to know and understand why there is such unrest amongst the students. She explained in sign language, that the students want a President who is totally Deaf in their heart, as well as the outside. Ms. Fernandes, is not as Deaf in her heart as much as the students would like her to be. I can see their point. The students need a President who is not only Deaf physically, but, in their hearts too, and is 100 percent understanding of what the Gally students wants and needs are. I King Jordan did a great job of being President, and now it's time for him to step down and enjoy his life. I hope the students rallies will serve a purpose, not be defeated and will get a great President that they truly deserve.
