Good Morning Dear God;

What a week. Lord, thank you for blessing me, my family and my friends. I thank you for hovering over us last week with the passing of my 6-month-old nephew. Thank you for blessing us with the 2 hours he was able to spend with us after his birth. Lord, I know that you have a plan for everyone and I just thank you for given me the strength to step up and deal with the things I had to put in place last week. Thanks for given me the strength to help my sister deal with her loss and for helping me to break the news to her daughter. Lord, we thank you for life and for everything that you've blessed us with. Amen.

I'm so sorry for your families loss. Your sister did everything she could. (F)

So, my rant for the day - DJ's son is 5 1/2, and DJ has had custody of him since he was a baby - no one had seen the mother in years, and she hadn't been to see him, no one knew where she was - DJ's Mom has had him, because with his work it was too hard to have a stable home for a little boy - The mother showed up at school and took him, and the school let her take him, so now no one knows where he is. The police are saying they can't do anything because it's his mother. How in the HELL are you going to let anyone take a child, regardless of whether she says she is his mother or not, when you have never met the woman, and know that he doesn't live with her? Why didn't the school at least call someone before they let her take off with him?

:( Sorry to hear this. My thoughts are with you both too.

The wedding was BEAUTIFUL considering we threw it togher in like TEN days! Ok...the worst part was the DYAM heat...unfortunately..the East Coast was heat with a Bloodcleat HEATWAVE inna early JUNE!!! Just 2 weeks ago it was 40 degrees...whatever.

We didn't let that spoil our day! I was in tears I said recited my vows...because my heart and soul finally felt at ease and knew..."THIS TIME WAS FOREVER!!"

Ken looked so...dyam GOOD!!!! So did our boys!!! Tghe reception was wonderful one of our friends justed opened a new restaurant that hasn't 'officially' been opened as of yet. SO he let us use it! We had a magnificent chef that's GillJamaican by birth, but was culinarily trained in France and London! He is part owner, of the Restaurant...the food was OFF THE HOOK!!!!!

It was very small only 35 of our family and friends...we had no DJ, no mic...but it was so geniune! The speeches moved me to tears...everyone saying how happy they were for us and how proud they were of me for taking a chance on love again!

It was great. Ken and I forgot to bring our camera...thank G-d my friend sent some to me this morning... I wanted to at least post one or 2 pictures...b/c I promised!

Thanks my VJ family. The hardest thing that I had to do was take the baby from her. The nursing staff, social workers, chaplin, doctors and her husband tried for 2 hours. When I got up on the floor I thought something happened to my sister and they were all like "THANK GOD YOU'RE HERE"...I had to force and take the baby. That's what I'm having a hard time dealing with. My sister if fine, she's the stronger one in the family. I jokinly told her this is 2nd pregnancy where she beat me up...with her daughter she had a reaction to the STADOL meds and became combative, she busted my lip and nose when I went to rub vaseline on her lips...we joke about that all the time. I still love her.

Lawny,

Please accept my condolences for your family's loss. I cannot imagine what your sister, yourself and the rest of your family are experiencing at this time. Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers and as you stated, the Lord knows why. Know that he is in God's arms now and he is surrounded by the Lord's love. My prayers are with you all ***HUGS***

**********HOTELS IN KINGSTON

I'm meeting up with 7 couples that have interviews in Kingston the same day as mine (June 24th). They're looking for just one night. All are coming from the other end of the island, from Westmoreland, St. Elizabeth, Negril. I'm the closest coming from Trelawny. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. They said no to the HILTON, Courtleight is sold out, some didn't like Knutsford, they're about to drive me insane.

Tre, there is a hotel by the airport. I can't remember the name right now, I am about to go into a meeting, will try to get the information back to you when i am back in my office.

What are the dates?

Roxcie

Hotel by the airport??? I think you meant Port Royal if it is then is Morgans Harbour Marino

Thanks, that is correct the name is Morgans Harbour Marino, going rate of 120.00 per nite.

*********GUESS WHO I JUST HAD LUNCH WITH????????

KELLY (JOMO'S girl) and ANDRE....they're such a cute couple and so down to heart. Andre is a true gentleman and they had me cracking up. Kelly's picture does her no justice. She looks great and I got so many cute gifts (yes, I'm bragging). Okay, going to get a cup of ice now, it's to DAMN hot outside.

Glad u guys had fun. Sounds like it was nice to hook up with some folks from here. I was wondering where Kell had been this last week... :lol:
