Please Remember



This has been a very sad week for us -- two young men, who went all through grammar school and high school with my daughter, were killed in a car crash on Monday afternoon. One leaves a father, mother and older sister; the other leaves a father, mother and seven younger siblings. If you can, please remember them, their families, our schools and our town in your prayers. We are devastated.

    No easy way to get through such a tragedy. I know it's hard to look through the grief for God, but he is there and there is a plan. Easy to say, I know, for someone so far removed, but hope all can reach for him and find some semblence of peace.

    As the mom of 3 sons who drive, this breaks my heart. Everyday, I scroll through my blog list looking for decorating stuff but somehow, this time of year opens my eyes to deeper issues.
