Sometimes things happen in our lives that makes us wake up and realize what we have. I normally don't put very "personal" things on here, but on Friday, my cousin died a very tragic death that put our whole family in a whirl and we're not quite sure how to handle it. The support that has been showed is more than I can even express. I once read in a book last year on divorce that someone who had gone through both had said that divorce was the one that was worse. I'm not sure they can be compared, for they are two completely separate kinds of losses. And the loss of a family member, especially a child, is a kind of void that can't ever really be filled. Everything I've written just seems to be cheesy and not conveying how I really feel (thus the reason why I hardly ever write very personal things). Forgive me if I'm blog-less during a time while we get through this week. Love you

Bonnie, I am so sorry. I know that it is so hard to lose a loved one, but like Abby said, it's times like these where we are truly lucky to know that we are going to see them again. You guys are in our prayers and I love you.

I'm so sorry, Bon. We'll keep your family in our prayers. Let me know if there's anything I can do. I'm sorry that I missed you at the LPP ward! If I'd known you were going to be there I would have made a trip! :)
