When I got up, I looked for my email with suggestions on what to post today in the Ultimate Blogging Challenge Day #2 because I couldn’t think of anything I wanted to share or write. There wasn’t an email, so I just let the day progress and put the challenge on the back burner. I did the things I needed to do, and then God opened the door, and I knew what I wanted to share today.
Here is my latest post for the Ultimate Blog Challenge Day 3#2 American Country Music Awards. I saw a commercial about the show, and as I watched the preview, I knew this would be a show I wanted to watch. Because I love “COUNTRY MUSIC” and always have and always will and my daughter Suzzane did as well. Once the show came on, I glued to the TV and when they announced Garth Brooks was going to give out an award, I was so excited as he was one of my daughter’s favorite singers.
I felt a cold chill come over me like someone had just sat down next to me and I could feel my daughter in the room with me telling me she was OK and that she was watching the show from Heaven. As I sat there, my son came into the room and looked at me and just said ‘it’s ok mom she is listening to Garth.
I was floored again by how in tune a child can be to the feelings his parents are facing so tonight as I finish watching the American Music Awards all I can say is I am one lucky mom because I had two beautiful children. That I love more than life itself and I am so happy the Lord Blessed me with them.
Watching shows like American Music Awards gives me the opportunity to share the things I love with them. Such as my love of Country Music and Keith Urban, Kenny Chesney, Garth Brooks and so many more and I would like to let them know I appreciate them and their music as they are a part of my life and I couldn’t live without them.
As a parent, I am in love with Tim McGraw new song Humble and Kind because I can hear myself saying these things to both Suzzane and Charlie. Since I wasn’t sure if you had heard this song or not I thought I would share it with.
I would like to thank the Lord for Blessing me with the two best children ever and I will always Love you Suzzane and never stop missing you. Or thinking about you each and every day. If I had one wish, it would be to give you a hug and tell you how proud I am of you and how much I love you.

To my beautiful son, Charles, who will be 9 this year.
All I can say is how fast time has grown and how proud I am of you.
Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
