In Memory of a Neighbor & Family Friend
+ Others Who have Lost Loved Ones
for his family, 2/6/2008

I made this poem just for you!

A life lost but not forgot.
A life that is in Heaven looking down on us.
Watching us to make sure we're ok.
Wanting us to do our best everyday.

 A life that was someone’s family
Now is with God the Almighty.
Was lost but now is found.
That we will never forget.

 A life we will meet in Heaven
When we shall pass.
Is one that made a difference in this world.
We will be forever grateful.

 --Amen--

The words and thoughtfulness are ALL Jennifer's with just a little editing help from family.
 

Belong

Do you belong in Special Olympics?

For me to belong in Special Olympics,

First I’m an athlete

And next I belong in ALPs ;

Because I want Special Olympics

To be the best I can make it to be

And I also try to help other athletes as much as I can.

Do I belong in Special Olympics?

I belong in Special Olympics

Because I’m an athlete

And I’m in ALPs.

Do you belong in Special Olympics?

Just for the medals
Or for doing your best?

Do you belong in Special Olympics?

Just for being around your friends

Or do you just like the competition?

Do you belong in Special Olympics?

To get you’re swimming times down

Or do you just like the exercise it beings?

For me belonging in the Special Olympics

Means I can help myself to help other athletes.

Believe

Believe you can do anything
You put your mind to.

Believe in yourself,
Because you are made in His image
And He wants you to do your best at whatever you do.

Believe you can reach the stars when you’re jumping.

Believe you can swim the English Channel
When you’re swimming a 100 free.

Believe you can bounce to the top of the moon
While you are playing bocce ball.

Believe you can hit the volleyball to the sun.

Believe you can put the horseshoe to the dust.

Believe you can throw the basketball to the moon.

But most of all, believe in yourself
Because you are who you make yourself to be.
If you believe in yourself,
Then you can do and accomplish anything!
