Heartbroken

I worked last summer with a very sweet girl named Ashley. She was a student at BYU and worked at Lasting Memories while she was home on breaks. I really like working with her. She gave me a great cookie recipe that I will always keep and think of her when I make them. A couple of days ago she was driving with 3 other girls when their car hit a deer. Ashley was not wearing a seat belt and was thrown from the car. The car flipped and landed on top of her. She died instantly. Ashley was 22. Too young to die. She and her family have been heavy on my mind and my heart just aches for them. I look at my children and my family and feel a feeling of relief that our lives have not been devastated like that. Thankful that we have each other and that we are all here and healthy. May God be with Ashley and her family. And may we stay happy, healthy and together.

Love the mornings!

I love getting up before the rest of the house. Its quiet and peaceful...I can collect my thoughts for the day. Watching the news, checking my emails, my favorite sites, cup of coffee. Its nice. Today is Wednesday....School, work, swimming lessons, the usual. Kim is starting at my office today, I'm very happy about that. I may have to work late tonight to get caught up on work so that I don't have a long weekend. I left yesterday at 12:00pm that really cuts into my week. But I had a Dr. apt. and I am one year Cancer Free. Gotta love that!!! I'm grateful and happy. Had a nice dinner with the family last night, Marce is finally home from Dallas(work stuff). It was a nice night!
