Death
Passing of a loved one
To take into God's hands

It's weird how death works. Especially when it is someone who is too young to die, a mother of a little girl, a wife of a husband, a family member. I always wonder why God chooses who he chooses and why he chooses to take them when they are so young. A good friend of mine has been tested, with the lose of her mother in the battle of Alzheimer's and now a sister-in-law with a failing heart and kidney function and is in her last days. My heart goes out to her and her family and my tears as well. Her sister-in-law has a little girl named Gracie and soon her mommy will only be a memory. Luckily for Gracie, Laurie is a Super Aunt and I know she will be very close to Gracie as she grows up. I know God has a plan and I just hope for peace to her and her family.

And for everyone else, Count your Blessings Daily. You never know when God will take them away from you. You may think that you are having a rough day but just think of those who are watching a 'too young' loved one in their lasts days. Maybe you will think twice about what is 'so bad' in your life and maybe be thankful that you have something to complain about.

Cherish every hug
Cherish every kiss
Cherish every squishy cheek and I love yous

May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
