So Sad and So Grateful

We went to the funeral of a neighbor this Saturday. He was killed in a freak car accident last Tuesday. He is leaving behind a wife and seven children, five of whom still live at home. Spencer is friends with the 11 year old boy.

I was so shocked and devastated when I heard the news. I can't even imagine how his wife is going to cope with his loss. It would be terrible to loose someone without even being able to say goodbye. I can't think of anything worse than loosing Wes. I have resolved that I am going to spend more one on one time with each of my family members. Life is so fragile and you just never know which day will be your last with the people that you love.

I am so grateful for my knowledge that families are forever. I am going to count each day as a blessing and try to live it that way.
