Dedicated To Summer Angeline

Summer was a precious angel to me. She had reminded me that during all the horror,  sorrow and unbelievable fear and sadness that the Son would bring hope and joy and quietness.  Summer's middle  name was given after her death because with that name there will forever be a reminder that hope returned in the summer.  Angeline is a beautiful name...like the angels in heaven.   Thank you to Rachael's sister, Angeline for allowing me to use her beautiful name for Summer's middle name.
Thankyou again Rachael for allowing Frances to represent my precious Moluccan Cockatoo who died the week I had my bone marrow transplant.  Only a few  friends knew of Summer's death.  It was too hard to talk about and was such a hard time that I thought I could bring into my life a new Moluccan and name her Summer as well.    However, the closer it gets to bringing her/him  home  I realized I must name her/him a new name to remind me of the newness of life.  Instead I decided to give my Summer the middle name of Angeline so that she would  carry the full name she deserves and dedicate this web site to her memory.  Although her life ended she brought great joy to me during her short life reminding me that my life goes on with the Son who made Summer Angeline and who gave me life in His Life.
