rip sara

You ever have those days where within a couple of hours of being awake, you just want to go back to bed and start the day over?! Yesterday was one of those days.

I know if Justin calls my phone before 830 AM, it will NOT be a good day. He has probably called me before 830 AM 3 times in the last 5 years... 2 were wrecks and 1 his truck broke down.

Yesterday, my phone rang around 820. Justin has a certain ring so I knew it was him. I was in Hadlea's room dressing her and just started sprinting to my phone. I knew it wasn't good. {probably like the visual you have of a 32 week prego running through a house. just not good!}

He called to say his cousin, Sara, had been in a car wreck and didn't survive. Her 5 year old daughter, Mahiya, was with her, but she was fine.

You never have words to say to people in these situations. I never know what to say, do or think. I get sad, then I get angry... and sometimes I just get pissed. I know we never question God's plan. After all, it is His plan. At the end of the day, I am just thankful I knew Sara. She was THE sweetest girl EVER! She always thought of everyone else.

She LOVED Chase and Mahiya.

Sara became a mom very young, but that didn't stop her from being the best mom ever! I was always so proud of her... and I am so thankful I had the chance to tell her one time. I honestly was so proud of the person she became... the mom she became. 

RIP sweet girl.

You were the light of your family's life.

You always held them together.
