But Colt didn't appear

He said:

"Mom you've got to listen,

you've got to understand

God didn't take me from you,

he only took my hand

When I called out in pain that night,

he instantly reached down,

took my hand and

pulled me gently to his side,

lifted me up and saved me

from all the misery and pain inside.

My body hurt so badly,

I could never be the same

My search is really over now

I've found happiness within,

all the answers to my empty dreams

and all that might have been

I love and miss you soooo very much,

I'll always be near by

My body's gone forever

But my spirit will never die

So you must go on now

and live one day at a time

Until we meet again

Just understand:

God didn't take me from you,

he only took my hand!!!!
~Unknown~

To You and Yours!!!

  I felt an angel's presence

On the day you left my side:

A gentle touch upon my cheek,

To wipe the tears I cried.

I seemed to hear her whisper

"Your loved one's in God's care,

Just turn your eyes to Heaven

And know he's resting there."

Her presence brought me comfort;

It was as if she knew

My faith in God was tested,

On the day that I lost you.

The years have swiftly passed,

Yet still I sense her near,

And know, whatever comes my way,

She'll help me through each fear.

God never leaves us helpless

As along life's path we roam:

An angel always comes our way

To guide us gently home.

"I Wish For You..."

Comfort on difficult days,

Smiles when sadness intrudes,

Rainbows to follow the clouds,

Laughter to kiss your lips,

Sunsets to warm your heart,

Gentle hugs when spirits sag,

Friendships to brighten your being,

Beauty for your eyes to see,

Confidence for when you doubt,

Faith so that you can believe,

Courage to know yourself,

Patience to accept the truth,

And love to complete your life.
~ Brenda Hager ~

  MY CHILD

On the day God took you

I thought that I would die

I wondered where the time went?

I asked alot of whys??

With people all around me

I felt alone inside

From all their words of comfort,

I couldn't seem to hide,

I thought I might be dreaming

That I'd wake and find you here,

I thought "This can't be happening."

As I wiped another tear.

On the day that you were laid to rest

My heart broke yet again,

I wondered if the pain would end,

But mostly, I wondered when??

It's hard to be without you,

At times the days seem long,

Sometimes I just sit crying,

When there's really nothing wrong.

I wish we'd had more time,

Before your life was done.

I hope your resting peacefully,

My precious child.

  In time of sorrow...

May you see God’s light on the path ahead

When the road you walk is dark.

May you always hear,

Even in your hour of sorrow,

The gentle singing of the lark.

When times are hard may hardness

Never turn your heart to stone.

May you always remember

When the shadows fall—

You do not walk alone.

Numerology Index

9 (9, 18/9, 27/9, 36/9)
The Life Path 9 suggests that you entered this plane with an abundance of dramatic feelings coupled with a strong sense of compassion and generosity. The key to the nature of a Life Path number 9 person is found in their humanitarian attitude. Even the very average of those with life path 9 possess extremely compassionate tendencies.

Usually this number produces an individual that is very trustworthy and honorable, and one unlikely to harbor any sort of prejudice. Obviously, this is a rather tall order, but you are, in fact, a person that feels very deeply for individuals less fortunate than yourself, and if you are in a position to help, you certainly will. The 9, being the highest of the single digit numbers, holds an elevated position in terms of responsibilities to mankind.

Material gains are not overly important, although the quality of some life path 9 people is such that they are materially rewarded in very significant ways. In this, however, the 9 Life Path is not apt to get rich since they are very generous, sometimes to a fault, and usually have an easy come, easy go attitude about money. The rare 9 life path has a totally selfless attitude, giving up of material possessions for the common good.

The 9 Life Path indicates you have a commanding presence. You have the ability to make friends very easily, as people are attracted to your magnetic, open personality. The term "hail-fellow" may have been coined to describe a 9 Life Path, as you may indeed be one of those who is generally upbeat and heartily friendly and congenial. You meet people easily and are quickly befriended because of your openness and amiable demeanor. Your genial ways often put you in the lead in whatever field of endeavor you pursue.

Relationships can be difficult for you because it is hard to strike a balance that will work effectively. If your partner is one sharing your giving attitudes, the relationship will be happy and lasting. On the other hand, if you choose a partner whose focus is on material issues, problems will arise quickly.

You tend to be quite sensitive, as you see the world with much feeling. The number 9's very deep understanding of life is sometimes manifested in the artistic and literary fields. If drama and acting is not your forte, it will surely be an area of great interest and potential. Likewise, you may be able to express your deep emotional feelings through painting, writing, music, or other art forms.

The purpose of life for those with a 9 life path is often of a philosophical nature. Judges, spiritual leaders, healers and educators frequently have much 9 energy. The number is less inclined to the competitive business environment and may find this a struggle.

As do all the life path numbers, the 9 has its negative side. Because of the demanding nature of the truly positive 9, many tend to fail in this category. It is not uncommon for persons with the 9 life path to fight the realities and challenges of purpose imposed here because selflessness is not an easy trait. You may have difficulty believing that giving and a lack of personal ambition can be satisfying. It must be realized and accepted that little long-term satisfaction and happiness is to be gained by rejecting the natural humanitarian inclinations of this path.

Colt Forrest Penny
There are 16 letters in your name.
Those 16 letters total to 81
There are 4 vowels and 12 consonants in your name.

What your first name means:English Male From the dark town. Diminutive of Colston: Unknown owner of property.

Your number is: 9

The characteristics of #9 are: Humanitarian, giving nature, selflessness, obligations, creative expression.

The expression or destiny for #9:
The expression that you exhibit is represented bythe number 9. Your talents center in humanistic interests and approaches. You like to help others as you were intended to be the 'big brother or big sister' type. You operate best when you follow your feelings and sense of compassion, and allow yourself to be sensitive to the needs of others. You work well with people, and have the potential to inspire. This suggests that you could successfully teach or counsel. Creative ability, imagination and artistic talent (often latent) of the highest order are present in this expression. It's possible that you're not using or developing all of these capabilities at this time. Some of your talents may have been used at an earlier time in your life, and some may still be latent. Be aware of your capabilities, so that you can make use of them at appropriate times.

If you are able to achieve the potential of your natural expression in this life, you are capable of much human understanding and have a lot to give to others. Your personal ambitions are likely to be maintained in a very positive perspective, never losing sight of an interest in people, and a sympathetic, tolerant, broad-minded and compassionate point of view. You are quite idealistic, and disappointed at the lack of perfection in the world. You have a strong awareness of your own feeling as well as those of others. Friendships, affection, and love are extremely important.

Undeveloped or ignored, the negative side of the 9 expression can be very selfish and self-centered. If you do not actively involve yourself with work that benefits others, you may tend to express just the opposite characteristics. It is your role to be very involved with other people and their needs, but it may be difficult for you achieve this role. Aloofness, lack of involvement, and a lack of sensitivity mark the low road of this expression.

Your Soul Urge number is: 22

A Soul Urge number of 22 means:
The Soul Urge of the master number 22 is very much that of the master builder. You would like to use your abilities in an important humanitarian undertaking, and have an innate desire is to express the significant power you feel in a concrete manner, as a builder, engineer, diplomat, etc. In some way you want to make a considerable contribution to the world.

The 22 gives a broad, universal outlook with a rather practical and common-sense approach. You have especially high intelligence, with an unusual perception and awareness. This number often denotes a high degree of diplomatic abilities and high ideals. You are a very capable person and you may possess special leadership abilities that you can and should develop. People respect you and recognize your superior foresight and vision.

The negative side of the 22 soul urge is a high degree of nervous energy and a tendency to be very dominating. It is unfortunate that all who possess the urge of 22 do not use its energies to the greatest advantage; but then it should be recognized that these energies are understandably the most difficult to focus and direct.

Your Inner Dream number is: 5

An Inner Dream number of 5 means:
You dream of being totally free and unrestrained by responsibility. Yoiu see yourself conversing and mingling with the natives in many nations, living for adventure and life experiences. You imagne what you might accomplished.

The moment that you died,

My heart split in two.

One side filled with memories.

The other died with you.

I often lay awake at night,

When the world is fast asleep.

And take a walk down memory lane,

With tears upon my cheeks,

Remembering you is easy,

I do it every day.

But missing you is heartache,

that never goes away.

I hold you tightly within my heart,

And there you will remain.

Life has gone on without you,

But never will be the same.  

   What My Child Has Taught Me

I've learned that you can keep going

 long after you think you can't.

I've learned that learning to forgive

takes a lot of practice.

I've learned that friends can become

strangers, and strangers can become

friends.

I've learned that ignorance isn't an

excuse for the lack of compassion.

I've learned that some people will never,

ever - "get it".

I've learned that the community of

sorrow is the strongest of all.

I've learned that no matter how bad

your heart is broken the world doesn't

stop for your grief.

I've learned that your life can be

changed in a matter of minutes.

I've learned that the people you care

most about in life are taken from you

too soon.

I've learned that you should always

leave loved ones with loving words.

It may be the last time you see them.

I've learned that love isn't measured by

the amount of time you have with

someone.

I've learned that some sorrow is so deep

that it has no words. But so is love.

As your heart aches each day, look at

the stars as smiles from the many angels

that heaven holds. Thank you for

touching my heart, you will be

remembered in my prayers.
~Unknown~

You are the Angel who I cherish,

So dearly in this heart of mine;

The one who makes my day brighter,

By making my whole world shine.

During all the darkest moments,

When my skies turn cloudy and grey,

You're the one who touches my heart,

And makes everything seem okay.

I count my blessings that I have,

An Angel like you, so close at hand;

A friend who always watches over me,

Someone who can always understand.

If I need someone who I can turn to,

You are always right there beside me,

Giving so much of yourself each time,

To guide me to the light, so I can see.

We are all assigned a Guardian Angel,

And I'm so glad God chose you as mine;

He knew that whenever I needed His love,

You would be an Angel to me every time.
~ Author Unknown ~

 Your Guardian Angel

When I have no one to turn to

and I am feeling kind of low

When there is no one here to talk to

and no where I really want to go

I search deep within myself

It is the love inside my heart

that let's me know

My Guardian Angels are there

Even though we are many miles apart

A smile then appears upon my face

and the sun begins to shine

I hear a voice, so soft and sweet

saying, "everything will be just fine"

It may seem that I am alone

but I am never by myself at all

Whenever I need my Angels near

All I have to do is call

Guardian Angels love is always true

on that you can always depend

He will always stand beside you

and will always be your friend

A guardian Angel

Who will guide what you do,

His heart filled with love

Sent to watch over you.

  Let nothing trouble you~

Let nothing frighten you~

All things pass away.

GOD

Never changes.

Patience obtains all things

Nothing is lacking to him

who possesses GOD.

GOD

Along suffices.

  The Carnation
represents fascination, affection, deep
love, distinction, happiness and fidelity.

FIXED--Eleventh Sign of the Zodiac--

AIR SIGN

January 21 to Feburary 19

Your need for independence should not be neglected as it is essential that you develop and sustain the right lifestyle. In many ways you are the quiet, retiring person who prefers his or her privacy even though you have a reputation for being friendly, this is linked mainly to the fact that you always want to be helpful so anyone that needs it will be able to look to you. You will approach other peoples problems as you do your own, without emotion, logically and detached. As long as your views and privacy are respected you make a wonderful friend. Your positive traits are originality, idealism, plus you are independent and honest. The more often you allow yourself to express the positive side of your nature that is how often you will feel fulfilled and you will see your life as a wonderful adventure. You have the power to help people to overcome their problems and you are seen as a bright spot in many lives. When young you are usually leaders of your generation but you should try not to cling to youthful opinions and lose that forward looking nature to ultra-conservatism. Awareness of the problem will go far to combat it.

You rarely lose hope due to your positive and optimistic outlook on life even when life gets difficult. Aquarius is an air sign and you must realize that aquarians need air, both physically and metaphorical. You must also realize just how stubborn you can be and should try to counter the tendency. You must not let your originality become too perverse as then others will be embarrassed or seriously annoyed. The Aquarian independence can also make themselves very remote from others thereby causing the Aquarian some emotional problems. They often find it hard to let anyone into their lives; close emotional relationships for Aquarians are much more difficult than for any other sign. They find it hard to settle into and sustain one due to their powerful need for independence. Closeness for them means modifying their lifestyle and tolerating an invasion of their privacy, both material and psychological but when and if they do allow this to happen,(they do have a strong romantic streak), they will be very committed and true. Aquarian originality and the need to be different shows up early in childhood.

But bows her head to no command-
And higher laws doth understand?

Colt and Teddy

  ~Once upon a time~

 Not so long ago

I met a special friend

Who always loved me so

Always was around for

Very special times

Knew that she would be there

Even through rough times

A very special friend

That always followed me

One that I will always love

With heart that you can see

She always will protect me

This very special friend

Now I know because of you

This story never ends.~
~ Francine ~© original 2001

Remember,

O most gracious Virgin Mary,

that never was it known

that anyone who fled to you for

your protection, implored your help

or sought your intercession,

was left unaided.

Inspired with this confidence,

I fly unto you,

O Virgin of virgins,

my Mother;

to you I come, before you I stand,

sinful and sorowful;

O Mother of the Word Incarnate,

despise not my petetions,

but in  your mercy

hear and answer me.

Amen

  I'm sending you this Angel

To keep you safe and warm

Just tuck her in your pocket

She'll keep you safe from harm.

This happy little Angel

Is meant just for you

She'll bring you love and happiness

In all you choose to do!

Gift Of Angels

May angels rest beside your door.

May you hear their voices sing.

May you feel their loving care for you.

May you hear their peace bells ring.

May angels always care for you

And not let you trip and fall.

May they bear you up on angel's wings.

May they keep you standing tall.

May they whisper wisdom in your ear.

May they touch you when you need.

May they remove from you

each trace of fear.

May they keep you from feeling greed.

May they fill you with their presence.

May they always stand besides you

And make you ever bold.

May they teach you what you need to know

About life here and hereafter.

May they fill you always with their love

And give you the gift of laughter.
