My dear friend -- Yesterday your post made me cry. I hear the missing -- even in the laughter and good times -- of your big sis, and I know that your family must be grieving more than ever could be put into a couple of pictures and some well-phrased sentences. This morning I looked at you pictures and your "Highway to Heaven" and wanted to cry again. Have you read the book "Decembered Grief"? I've been thinking about how all the months have their own "Kind" of of grief, and how each season takes its own flavor -- so to speak. But the thought of Heaven, and the vivid reminders that our Heavenly Father gives us of what must surely be there, and the Hope that we shall see HIM and all our loved ones who have gone to be with Him -- that is what turns my tears from despair to trust, and my eyes from loss to what cannot be lost. Anyhow - all that to say that you have given my heart a lift this morning, and I have been encouraged. Love you!
