Five years today?? I can't believe how fast time flies... I can still remember it like it was yesterday. I remember what I could smell, things I heard, and even the weather.
Early morning ... I remember the phone ringing, next the worry pouring into my soul, next fear striking through my heart. I remember moving faster than I ever have moved before, jumping into my shoes and running through up the stairs and through the field. My hair wasn't combed, I had barely brushed my teeth, I was still in my pajamAs.
Hearing the news was heart breaking ... Seeing the pain in my moms eyes told me something was wrong before she said anything. I remember the anger in my aunts face, the pain in her body language.
Next driving over to his house ... Only to hear screams of pain. it was a noise I never want to hear again: it was a mother mourning the loss of her child. There were people walking everywhere outside, I remember yellow police tape, cars and a priest. I remember my beautiful angel on her knees, she was broken, crushed.
Church the next day was heart breaking... Seeing his babies made my heart hurt more. I remember being unable to keep myself together for days after. Everything made me cry, nothing seemed right.
5 years ago today, you were suddenly taken from our lives without cause or reason. We still miss you more than words can explain, we still remember the wonderful memory you left in out hearts, we think of you often and who you'd be today ... Love you always and I know we'll see you again someday ...
**Now faith is the substance if things hoped for, the evidence if things not seen. Hebrews 11:1**
