Hug your babies

Filed under: waxin — hatcherdogg @ 12:12 am

Maybe it is just me, but I think that (in order) Howard, me, and Etta Lyn all look the same.

I have been thinking alot about families today. This morning, Katie Nielsen called me and let me know that the Reeves family was in an car accident near Boise last night, and that Emily Reeves had passed away.

I don’t understand. How is the beautiful little girl (carrie’s sister) not here any more? Why would this happen to a family like the Reeves? The Reeves are the type of family that made me join the Church. I wanted what they have. And now, like that, they have a little bit less of that thing I wanted, yet- they have more of it. Maybe 1 year or 5 years ago this doesnt hit me as hard; now I have my own family and my own precious little girl and it does hit me hard.

It makes me realize that I (and everyone else) am mortal. And any given time, could be the time.

Live each day. Dont procastinate. Tell your loved ones that you love them.

And hold your baby in your arms every day.

Thoughts and prayers to the Reeves and their extended family- of which I feel I am a small part.

I will miss you Emily. You always were my favorite.
