How can it be that life is going on along, just (or mostly) as you expect and then WHAM! your life is backwards, upside down, and you can't stand? My dearest friend Amber Nicole, was killed in a car accident on her way to work.
She was supposed to be here today, feasting on prime rib and enjoying the wonderfully festive Christmas background music. She was supposed to comment on the rub Phil used on the meat, she was supposed to hold hands with us as Phil prayed with thanksgiving for our meal and for our family. She was supposed to be the one misty-eyed at the love we feel for her.
No.
I am the one, misty-eyed at the loss of a sister. One I could just look at in certain ways or say one word and we would both crack up.
Amber, I love you. Don't know if I ever told you that, but I do, I have and I always will.

Still can't believe this happened. I'm so sorry Dawn -- it must have been tough to get through Christmas without her. Thinking of you!
I got here through Pioneer Woman's site... So sorry to here of this terrible loss, at such a time of the year it seems to hurt so much more! God bless!
