Tonight I was watching the 9 PM news and saw that gold prices went up again. This made me remember how excited Brody and Kylie were when I got a gold crown several years back. REAL gold in mom's mouth! Brody wanted to see it a lot and had me show it to several people after he told them, "Mom got a gold tooth!"

We miss him. Shawn said tonight he hates supper time. It really does drive home the fact BRODY is gone when we sit down to eat and his chair is empty. Yesterday was 2 weeks since we lost him. It seems like an eternity to me. I can't think past each day. If I do, I realize that Brody still won't be here with us in 2 weeks, one year, 5 years. That becomes to much for me to handle.

We met with the monument people. We are so happy with the plans they helped us make for BRODY's stone. We still have another appointment with them, and it will be at least 2 months before it will be ready. Then the weather will determine when it is placed, but it will be a wonderful tribute to our wonderful son and brother.

All of your prayers for our family are being heard by our great God. He is continuing to bless us by surrounding us with wonderful friends and family who gives us strength and comfort. Please know that we are thankful for each of you.
