I remember just being completely amazed (and a little jealous) of Amanda's creativity and grace. I didn't know her as well as I would have liked, but I am happy to have seen her talents and compassion. She was a bright light in an otherwise dark office full of stress. I could just look at one of her creations, proudly displayed on her desk, and smile. Thank you for all of the smiles Amanda. Rest peacefully.
I remember when me and Amanda went to the casinos during at time that we didn't really have the money. I didn't have much money but we decided to go anyway. I decided to go to one of the casinos so that we could use the free room that we got and took a little money that we had and just go spend some quite time there. I wanted to go to one of the casinos and have a drink so we went. I decided to take out a couple dollars and just play one slot. I told Amanda that I loved her and that she needed to wish me luck. She gave me a big hug and kiss and said that we did not need to have money because we had each other. I put in 2 dollars and decided to bet it all on one spin of a slot machine. We won a 175 dollars off the 2 that I had put in. After that we decided to just go back to the room and just sit and enjoy the time that we had together. I still miss the time that we had. I still have my hard times that make me just want to shut down and not do anything at all. I have to keep pushing forward. I promised her that I would do anything that is needed to keep us going. I will always keep that promise. Just like I promised to love her for the rest of my life. I love her and miss her so much. I wish I had a time machine to turn back time and make sure that she was still here with me. She is with me in my heart, mind and soul. I love you my princess and wife Amanda.
I remember when I first got the apartment that me and Amanda moved into. She wanted to stay at papa's house some nights and be able to stay here also. She ended up only staying one night at papa's. The other nights that she was to stay there she ended up calling me and telling me that she just wanted to be at our apartment with me. She ended up completely moving in with me only after about a week. She was so happy that we had a home for us. She always said that she just wanted to stay here with me and not to have to go anywhere. She didn't worry about what others thought, she just knew what she wanted. She always made it a point to let me know how much she loved me. She did little things here and there and didn't care about anything else. She made this a home for us. It is still our home. She tried so hard at times to do things that she didn't have to do. All that she needed to do was to make sure that she was happy and that she had her monster, smokes and cats. She is what made me a better person. She showed me that you can give everything even though you didn't have anything. I wrote my wedding vow to her. It says " Amanda, from the moment I first saw you, I knew you were the one with whom I wanted to share my life with. Your beauty, heart and mind inspire me to be the best person I can be. I promise to love you for eternity, respect you, honoring you, being faithful to you, and sharing my life with you. This is my solemn vow. " When I showed this to her she started to tear up and just smiled. She is the most beautiful angel now. I know that she is looking over me as I type this. I love you my princess and miss you so much.
I remember Geometry class with Amanda. Mr. Goddard had assigned us seats, and quickly discovered that by allowing her and I to be at the same table, the noise level was astonishing and rather disruptive. What can I say, we were a having a hoot and a half at our table. Even when he separated us so we were in opposite corners of the classroom, we still managed to talk to each other. I don't know how we did it, but we finally convinced him to let us be back at the same table, probably because we promised to behave and not be disruptive. We even tried so hard once that we got into trouble for being "too quiet".
I remeber the first Christmas that I had with Amanda. I was upset because I didn't think that I was going to have money to get my monkey presents for Christmas. Amanda took the time and went Christmas shopping for him and got presents for him. She made sure that he was able to get something for Christmas. She told me that she did it for me so that I was able to show him that I was able to get him something. She also made sure that there was something there for Lorenzo. She never left anyone out. I put her name on the presents and told Elijah and Lorenzo that she got the gifts for them and that I did to. She was so happy that the boys had a good Christmas. I love her so much for all that she did for me and my boys. She is a wounderful woman and will be missed. Not for what she could do, but because she was a caring and loving princess that gave all that she could.
