This is Jaxon at the cemetery for my Mom's birthday.
Jaxon looking up at the balloon he just sent to Nana that said, "I love you Nana... Happy Birthday!"
My visiting teacher gave Jaxon these BIG blocks and we have played with them every day since. We build some really fun things. Jaxon cannot get enough of them. We built a tower taller than him and put him in the middle and enclosed it. He thought it was hilarious.
This is a fun tradition we have on my Mom's birthday. We go to the cemetery and remember her for all the great things she has done. We miss her so much. We like to sing happy birthday and send balloons to her with our birthday letters to her. We all like to imagine that some day when we get to see her again she will take us to this room filled with hundreds of balloons from us year after year. I think that is a fun thought. It will be so wonderful when my Dad can be with my Mom again. (I hope not any time soon) We love you Mom... thanks for your perfect example.

Shana Wilson,
You're my hero!! I *love* your blog. I feel more connected when I can read and see pictures (and AWESOME videos) of your cute-patootie family! I miss you guys so much - wish I could've been there with you all. Thanks for your blog update.
You really are my hero. I'm gonna be just like you when I grow up :)
That's a really good idea, the balloons on your mom's birthday. That is an idea I will probably use when it comes time for my dad's birthday, he passed away almost four years ago. Thanx for sharing!
Dearest Shana Fern...
I'm just sitting here bawling my eyes out as I watched this video of you all singing to your mommy! What a neat thing to do! I'm sure she will have that room for you all to see someday! :) Knowing your INCREDIBLE AND AMAZING MOTHER, she's talking Heavenly Father into a way to save them all! ha ha
I miss her terribly too...I'm looking forward to the reunion with her too someday...I only wish I could've had the great priveledge to live here in Mesa when she was alive...I think of that often and wish I could go visit her and be "taught" by her some more.
...But her life lives on in each one of her beautiful children...and so I'm thankful I get to be near you and be taught by each of you...You're INCREDIBLE WOMEN, JUST LIKE HER!
Love you...Aunt Lisa :) oxox
