I am so sorry for your losses. However, what a blessing to have your daughter so soon afterwards. Treasure every moment!

My dad died on August 24, 2011. My brother died on October 16, 2011. Both were unexpected deaths. I think it allowed me to see my strength. It also makes you really appreciate the time you have with your loved ones. After, my husband and I decided to have a baby. We had a beautiful baby girl on June 18, 2012. Kiaya Faye brought joy and healing to my family.Roseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02123568945110660616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271375082145370896.post-70666664433602075092015-01-25T18:39:11.465-05:002015-01-25T18:39:11.465-05:00The great tragedy for us were the fires in SC.

It truly ...I'm so glad you stopped by, Melanie. It truly was a tragedy, and I have often pondered the fact that my mom's father SHOULD have been there that night, but opted to take a night off. Of my two grandfathers, he is the only one I met. My dad's father died several years before I was born. I'm grateful that my grandpa heeded that thought to stay home. It gave me the chance to know him. ;)Jennifer Uhlarikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08244230079625820718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271375082145370896.post-40626941340017242662015-01-25T03:48:39.544-05:002015-01-25T03:48:39.544-05:00Jennifer, I was unaware of this terrible tragedy. ...Jennifer, I was unaware of this terrible tragedy.
