Very sad day

When I came home from work today I found out that my friend/neighbor is loosing her battle with cancer. My family and I have come to love her and her family very much in the last year and a half. My heart is so heavy for the family as they are together with her. As I have been thinking about our friendship I was reminded of how I stopped everything if she needed me......because I knew my time with her was limited. I am so glad I did.

I started this post a few weeks ago. I could not finish this post at the time. I was crying to much. Since then she has died and so has another friend of ours. They were both great people and are missed very much buy their family and friends. The past few weeks have been hard. Mike (my husband) did the funeral service for our friend and we were able to attend the viewing of our neighbor together. It was a sad few weeks.

Things you may not know

Here are 5 things that you may or may not know about me:

1. I am very afraid of lawn mowers ( it is stressful for me when I mow our lawn )

2. I love my neighbors (past and present) but, I wish I lived on a farm in the middle of nowhere

3. Growing up I had a lot of different pets

4. I love the spring for a lot of reasons one being that it reminds me of the farm that I grew up on

5. I still love all kinds of animals but, I love my husband MORE and therefore we don't have many pets (he has alergies and does not love animals)

6. I used to be the one to beg Mike to go and do things now....I am begging him to slow down

7. I can't count.....and I love my Creator more than anything/anyone and that is ALOT
