As you know my friend Kristie at Kristie's Notes has been posting updates on her blog about her friend Amanda and her tragic story. There is a poem that Kristie has posted that Amanda had read at the funeral for her family. If you have time today, go on over and read it. Each day is a precious gift from God.

On my way to read it now.... and then to hug my girls and husband. Thanks for posting this!
Oh just makes me cry.
Life is so precious, we need to thank God for each day.
I went on over and my heart just broke. I cannot fathom what she is feeling. It's heartwrenching.
I can't wait to pick up my son in 15 minutes from school. The nice part is I already couldn't wait. I don't think I take him for granted ever but my hubs, that's a different story. Something I need to work on...
Thanx for posting this I read it and I have a Facebook acct and Amanda and I are friends now and we talked alot on New Years Eve. Such a sweet person.
Thanx for all you to.

Blessings and prayers, andrea
Debbie,
Just an ever present reminder that life is truly a gift, to be cherished and treasured and not taken for granted.
Love and Hugs ~ Kat
