Four years ago today was a Sunday…
Four years ago today the weather was sunny and cold….
I know this because…
Four years ago today my whole world was turned upside down…
I was no longer someone’s wife…
I no longer had a loving husband…
and our family was forever broken…
Four years ago today…my Danny died.
Although it has gotten easier over time to close my eyes…and eventually drift off to sleep…
I don’t think I will ever get use to Danny not lying there beside me…
When I turn over and see his pillow, I still have to will myself to close my eyes and think of other things….so it doesn’t hurt so much.
Last night, I dreamed of him… Me, him and Kat (his sis) were at our mobile home he and I once owned in the 70’s. In the dream, me and Kat knew that he was visiting us from the other side and we tried and tried to get Danny to tell us what it was like there…but he would only smile and say we would have to find out ourselves when the time came…that it was a big secret and he couldn’t tell us. He looked so good….so healthy and his hair wasn’t white, but the dark brown that it use to be when we were young….
Funny, but I knew at the end of that dream
that I was beginning to wake up…
and I also knew that …
I didn’t want to.
I love you Danny Noggle ….
more.

God bless and be with you Carlene. Lovya, Helen
I remember so well, as if it were yesterday.
It is hard to believe 4 years have gone by so quickly. You'll never forget the day and I don't think you should either. You have so many wonderful memories. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
CARLENE, THAT IS A VERY TOUCHING ENTRY. THANKS. REALLY MAKES US THINK.
BE HAPPY WITH WHAT WE HAVE. SO LONESOME FOR THE ONES THAT ARE GONE AND AT THE SAME TIME THANKFUL FOR HAVING THE BABY GRAND CHILDREN TO LOVE.
GOD WILL MAKE THINGS BEAUTIFUL FOR US. ( LUKE CH. 1 VS. 37 )sam
My first thought to this was "WOW....4 years already?" and then I thought "WOW, I have known Carlene for FOUR years??" I remember being sent by someone (I don't even remember who) to your blog to send some ((hugs)) because you had lost your Danny so suddenly. So much has happened to you in the last four years, but I know how hard it's been for you. So today, I am here again. Not sent by anyone, just here on my own to check in on my FRIEND on this very sad but special day.
((hugs))

Brought tears. Big hugs. But I'm glad you had the dream. I think those are little gifts from God.
Aww Carlene my heart aches with yours when I read your words.Prayers for you always.Hugs and Love.Take Care God Bless Kath xx
This time you added more photos to your remembrance and that was so nice. I think you lived a wonderful love story partly because you and he both were gifted at loving. I especially liked the dream that you had about him. That was so beautiful. See what you have to look forward to and now I know you will settle back down to love and appreciate your grandchildren with the same kind of big heart you had for Danny. And that is a blessing on earth.
WHAT A TOUCHING POST...I HAVE THOSE KIND OF DREAMS ABOUT MY MUM TOO...
YOU SURE HAD A SPCIAL KIND OF LOVE AND IT SHOWS...
Carlene, what a beautiful tribute to your Danny..thinking of you and yours..
