How beautiful they are. How is your family doing. Still shattered? I hope they will see some light soon.

My oldest daughter and I have been trying to pick up the pieces and hold it together. Some days are better than others. Time heals.

They were really beautiful. My favorites are the ones with the beams of light coming through them.

I'm sure she loved that you came to visit. Great clouds in the sky~

~~ Sarina ~~ Sep 19, 2009, 8:49pm EDT

She was glad to see me. Sadly I couldn't hug her or kiss her as I longed to so badly.

They're beautiful! I visit my husband every weekend, and we look for ways to forget for a few hours that he's in prison. It's horribly difficult, but we just sort of go into our own little space in the visiting room and look forward to the future, when he can come home. I hope you and your daughter can arrive at this sort of comfort and pleasure when there is an opportunity to be together.

~~ Sarina ~~ Sep 19, 2009, 9:37pm EDT

It was the first time I had visited her. I am hoping to be able to visit her again soon. Until then we will have to rely on letters.

Joanne Vicente Sep 19, 2009, 9:40pm EDT

I pray you can keep it a positive thing when you visit, and maintain a strong, loving relationship by mail. I've encountered so many sad and horrible things that happen to the families of inmates. John and I have kept things very positive, and I wish the same for you.

~~ Sarina ~~ Sep 19, 2009, 10:02pm EDT

This is not a journey that I had hope for where my children are concerned. God will pull them through it if they open their minds to it.

Joanne Vicente Sep 19, 2009, 10:12pm EDT

One of the things John and I never fail to do is pray together, even though we are of different religious persuasions. It does help.

~~ Sarina ~~ Sep 19, 2009, 10:47pm EDT

It does help. My children are on the fence. They do attend services in jail. This gives me hope.

What very beautiful clouds and I sure do hope things turn around for the very best for your daughter too!!!

~~ Sarina ~~ Sep 19, 2009, 11:18pm EDT

I hope she can turn her life around. She has the power to do it, but she has to want to do it as well.

The pictures are beautiful. I know your visit meant so much to your daughter but it must have been tough on you. You know where I am if you need to talk, Sarina.

~~ Sarina ~~ Sep 21, 2009, 8:16pm EDT

Thank you Amanda.

Your thoughts bring me joy Regine. Thank you.

Regine R. Sep 22, 2009, 4:30am EDT

I am sooooo concerned about you and think your situation is very hard to bear. Would help you in a moment if I had the possibilities to do more than just sit here and type. What you go through simply touches my heart.

~~ Sarina ~~ Sep 24, 2009, 9:31pm EDT

You truly are one of the best Regine. Big huggers to you.

Regine R. Sep 26, 2009, 10:18am EDT

Beautiful pics! It is always a good thing to look for something positive in a sad situation.

~~ Sarina ~~ Sep 21, 2009, 8:17pm EDT

So true. We should always look for the good even when we feel all is bad.

Sarina...HUGs!

On the day you posted this I visited my son in rehab for heroin addiction. It's the first I've seen him since last October. I saw the clouds Saturday too...some dark and grey, some bright and white. Feel free to gather email me anytime.

Blessings & a bit o' sunshine!
