Changed for good!



Today I feel a bit like this gal! I have had an emotional filled day with my mom and all 3 sisters. I have a pounding headache, blood shot eyes, and some disturbed hair!(not quite this bad!)

We had a great family in our home ward lose one of their children this past week to a car accident and her funeral was today. I am overcome with emotion and thoughts and renewal! Iwant to be a better person because of who she was and the example and way she touched soooooo many. As I looked around at the hundreds of people their who knew her family of her I was taken back. How this sweet child of God in only 13 short years touched the hearts of so many.

Her mother spoke and quoted the song from "Wicked" , "For Good". I have been changed for good because I knew her and her wonderful family.

As I came home I was quick to love and snuggle my own family and explain how much they mean to me and remind them how we need to express this more. Iam so grateful for the knowledge of forever families and that mine is! I look forward to seeing my grandparents again and having that comfort.

I know people come into our lives for a reason, and I hope I can touch as many people as this sweet child did. Please pray for her family in this time of tradgedy and don't think twice about living for today and cherish every moment! I love you all and am honored to have you in my life!
