What I had to say isn't as important

I had my blog post all figured out tonight.

And then I read an email from my friend Rebecca.....posted in regards to yesterday's story....

Yesterday Caroline looked at her daddy right before our dinner prayer and said, "please ask God how Samantha is doing." I asked her how she thought Sam was doing. Her answer - "oh, she is great, she is dancing and singing in heaven." Max looked over and with a firm voice added "Samantha is talking now." He can say her name perfectly now, I miss the way he used to say Antha.

It was an unexpected conversation, but not uncommon. She is never far from their thoughts, or mine.

I am glad the little bird came to the wedding, she must have arrived after taking a break from all the dancing.

Well, no matter what is going on in my life, this is far more important and far more touching, and far more wonderful and far more magical.

Thank you my very intelligent, my very thoughtful, small friends......

Oh yeah - grab the magic when it appears!

BTW ... Want to hear what you'd planned to say ... eventually. :)

They do have a connection, it makes for many misty eye moments in our home. I will forever be amazed at how one little life changed a family of four.

Trauma should be the hall pass to life's other issues. Someone should tell the hall monitor

I posted something cryptic on Facebook Saturday. It caught a lot of attention from my tribe but it really wasn’t a big deal…. nothing ...
