An Anniversary of Sorts

So, right after it happened... well actually for probably the next two years, I thought about it at least once a day. Now I occassionally think about it. Maybe once every couple of months. But it has been six years. March 13th. And for most people it would probably be forgotton. But for me it was a life changer.  It reminds me to be a better me. A better mom. A better wife. A better friend.  Because life can change in an instant.  I know there were angels there and that there were many blessings showered upon me and my family that night.  I"m still grateful for the prayers that were said and for the answers to those prayers. So for me, will you please hug your kids, kiss your spouse and buckle all your seatbelts. And don't sleep and drive.

Your family had been randomly added into Tori's innocent, incredibly repetitive, little kid prayer at dinner that night, mere hours before we heard what had happened. The Lord works in mysterious ways.

With loads of love,
