... at how quickly life can be taken from us. I may not be around too much today because my dad phoned me this morning with some very heartbreaking news.
Some dear family friends, (father, mother, their daughter, son-in-law & their baby and the grandmother) were in a tragic accident this past weekend. The mother and grandmother were both killed. The other 3 adults have broken legs and the baby is 100 % fine. But, my heart is just ready to explode from this sadness.
I know that God is Sovereign and holds us in the palm of His hands and he has everything planned for a reason. I do believe that and I do trust Him.
Hearing news like this, though, is still so very heartwrenching and I'm sure I'll be crying a fair bit today.
Make sure you give you kids, husband, wife, eveyone you love a big hug and kiss today and tell them that you love them. Life can change in an instant!
So, as I sign off here, I just want to tell all of you, my family and dear friends that I love you and you all play a significant part in my life.
Cari, this world is so very small....I am sorry for your news. I am humbled because I think I heard of this story earlier today, because of someone in my church here in Ottawa...was this the accident in Timber Junction Oregon? (http://www.katu.com/stories/86773.html)
