Life is short - are you with someone you love? Are you being treated like the queen/king you are? I hope so, I know how lucky I am to have Mr. Incredible in my life, and I think he knows how lucky he is to have me.
*****************************************************************************************************
I received some bad news today. The one year old daughter, of an old high school friend was killed in a farming accident this week, I’m trying to find the words and the strength. I just feel so inadequate, and my heart as a parent is just breaking. Please send good thoughts/prayers/ whatever it is you do to this family. CC was their only child. She was their life and their joy. She was daddy’s little girl.

I…
Wow. I don’t know you. I just started reading your blog yesterday, jumping from one site to another to see what was out there, but if I may, I’d like to say I understand. There are no words, and the strength is difficult to find - if not impossible, at times. As the father of a “daddy’s little girl”, I know the kind of pain I would have upon losing her would be unimaginable.
I’ll shut up now, and pray for them, and I will pray for you.

My heart goes out to her family. So tragic. The hubs had two of his fingers cut off by the combine when he was four years old. Thankfully they were sewn back on at Duke, but it has made us extra careful with our own kids. It only takes a second. So sorry to hear this. Sending prayers your way.

Yes I should be kissed. And often. And no, I’m not treated like a queen. It wouldn’t occur to him. He happens to be quite content to be self absorbed and clueless.
Lucky for him he had beautiful icy blue eyes or he might not never have gotten me.

Good Lord…this summer has been full of bad kid stories (I\’ve not blogged about any but drownings, car accidents, premature births/deaths, etc.). (sigh) My heart goes out to your friends. I cannot imagine, as much as I think I can, I\’m sure the hurt goes beyond what we can even comprehend.
((hugs to them))

Simon – Thanks for stopping by – I’ll come over to visit as well.
Shannon – As a farmer’s daughter, I grew up doing all things they say you can’t do now. they had an article in the newspaper re: the accident, and commentors are wanting the dad to be charged, and the dad is taking it so very very hard.
Meritt – I don’t think he ever would have gotten over you! We’ll just have to convince him to start treating you like a queen. (what am I saying…you’d go into shock.)
Metalmom – thank you – they can really use it.
Laura – it is…
Evil Genius – I was in hallmark looking for the right card – you know what – there isn’t one. How can you have enough memories to last forever – when they are only 17 months?
KGrams – long time no see … thanks
TKW – I can’t seem to get my mind to grasp the fact that this happened.
Tug – thanks!
Shelli – it’s going to be the toughest thing they have gone through.
Timestep – words are inadequate…
Trukindog – soon or later the right one will show up… thanks.

So sorry, All I think you can do for your friend at this time is be there for her. Don’t try to make it all better, just be there for her if she needs to talk.
And yes, I do have a great husband! Not very much kissin’ due to busy schedules but I’m lucky I have him.
