August 12, 2008. The Worst Day of My Life. Ever.


Sarah, if you can read this, I love you. I miss you. I will live my life for you. I will never forget you. I forgive you. I can't wait to be with you again. I know you are in a better place now. Please know that I love you and that none of us blame you for this. I dreamed about you last night. After you died. It was around 1:00am, before I found out you were gone. I dreamed we were in church together, sitting in Young Women's class. You looked beautiful, happy. I want to remember us like that. Together and happy.

I'm still in shock. I'm at the airport right now going home for the first time in over a year so I can be with my mom. My cousin sent me this article a few minutes ago which just makes it all seem even more real.

Don't know you or anyone involved in this tragedy. Just happened across this blog. You and your family are in my prayers at this difficult time. I do live in the area and passed the crash site. Just looking at the pictures and kind words tells me these were two very special people taken from this world. I wish you the best.

Jennifer & Family

We little knew that morning, that God
was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
you did not go alone;
for part of us went with you,
the day God called you home.

You left us peaceful memories,
your love is still our guide;
and though we cannot see you,
you are always at our side.

Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same;
but as GOD calls us one by one,
The Chain will link again.

HIJACK

This post is not coming to you VIA Jennifer. This is her husband, Erik. I decided to hijack her blog (ah...the things you can do when in possession of another's password) and tell her how I feel about her. This will probably not be posted for long, I am sure as soon as she sees it she will remove it. HERE GOES! Jennifer, my dear, I love you oh so very much. On Monday is our 1 year anniversary! A whole year! That may not seem like much, but my oh my it has flown by quickly. Since you are a relative young'un that year actually represents around 4.76% of your entire lifespan(thus far). I still keep my eye out for things that represent 'US'. Who can forget the 'EJ' Truck? I have never stopped looking for, nor noting 28s as they pop up all over the place. I notice all of the little things you do. I notice the little faces you make. I notice the little noises you make. I notice the slight shifting of your posture in response to my incessant joking. This face was made...

One Month Old

Tyler turned one month old on Friday! He has grown and changed a lot just in the last couple of weeks. It is so much fun to watch him now that he is smiling and holding his head all the way up and clasping his hands together--interlaced as if in prayer. He is the cutest baby (ok, so I'm biased). We've had a hard week though (make that almost two weeks--I've been trying to publish this post for 5 days). The other day he screamed for almost 24 hours straight. Luckily Jaime came over to show me how to help relieve his gas and he calmed down for a couple of hours. He has been up all night, up all day and just kind of hard to deal with. Of course I still love him, which is weird. Usually its hard to love someone who deprives you of sleep. :) Update: Like I said, I have been trying to publish this for almost a week--I have had literally no time between work and a screaming baby and laundry and dishes and cooking and cleaning but alas I think I now have 5 minutes! Anyway, Ty...
