Miss you friend

October seems to be a birthday-packed month. Start off with my birthday, then Momma's birthday, and as I grow up more and more people are getting added to the list--Caley, Katie, Yeimy, Jennie Hayes (twinsies!), Dan, Kyle Stud...  One of the wonderful people that was brought in my life and added to this wonderful list was Scott. And since today was the first day my oven been's properly functioning I made a birthday cake, as has been the custom for his birthday for many moons now. In the past I've done a Superman cake...maybe more than once, but as I couldn't find frosting and other necessary things, I did something different, but still very Scott-approved this year. Mickey Mouse!



What a wonderful guy Scott was. He had such a life full of joy straight from God. And even through pain and suffering he was an encouragement to others. A few days, maybe two or three, before I got the call to come home he sent me this text, "Miss you friend and.getting out of.bed.was.awesome! Today I got to wheel myself around the halls  of the hospital I was exhausted and still am but it was so worth it! Life is good God is good! He's given me so much strength and joy! :)" Amen to that, Scott did have so much strength and joy. What an example he set! What an inspiration he is! I miss him so much, but what a blessing it is to have had such a friend.
Love you Scott.
