I LOVE YOU

So I have to tell the world about my sweet darling princess Abigail... In the mornings when she wakes up and we just aren't ready to get out of bed (this has now become a ritual even if we aren't in bed) Abs lays in our bed watches Barney and drinks her milK (capital K because she stresses that letter when she says milk) it is wonderful family time. So this morning was like no other when she was snuggling with me she laid her head on my shoulder and said I love you! I cried... Yes I cried. It was the 3 sweetest words I have ever heard in my life. It made me melt... I hope she stays this sweet forever.

Yesterday I went to a funeral for a way to young father and friend. A dear friend of mine Dustin Hampton was in a fatal car accident on Sunday. He left 3 young children, his family, and numerous friends behind. The Hampton family has experienced a lot of heartache and tragedy over the last few months. Dustin mother, Brenda, passed away a few months ago after a long battle with cancer. Please keep this family in your prayers. I met Dustin in like maybe the 5th grade and he always had the most warm hearted smile on his face. Dustin's family used to go into the cafe, Franks,  in Bokchito and he had the biggest crush on my sister! He actually bought her perfume when he was in middle school.... Anyways I have some wonderful memories with Dustin going to ropings (yes I used to go rodeos!) and dancing at Calhoun's. He was the best two stepper I have ever met! I am sure Dustin is dancing with his mom in the streets of Heaven... RIP Dustin you have touched many lives and will always be remembered.

In my short life span me I have experienced so many young people leaving this earth to early. I can honestly say that I have been to more funerals for people under 25 than over. With all of this death and tragedy I can honestly say it has made me walk a little bit closer to our wonderful savior Jesus Christ and for that I am thankful.

This is kinda random but I read it on some one's FB page and I loved the saying so much I thought I would share "A man stands allot taller from his knees" and that is so true!

I hope everyone snuggles a little bit longer tonight with your love ones because we may never know when we are called upon to meet our creator.

Love,

Jackie
