March is almost over so you know what's next right?......APRIL! I've always heard the saying that April showers bring May flowers. April has not proven to be a great month for me and I don't mean the 'rain showers.'
Today as I was listening to "When I die young" by the Band Perry, I ran across a highschool friend on facebook. This highschool friend was one of the highlights of my week when I worked at Penney's. You see, many times I would pick up some lunch at DQ next door, where I was always greated by Megan's face. No matter how many times I go back to that same DQ, I won't be greated at the counter by Megan. Megan passed away April 8th 2009 at the age of 20.
On April 13th 2002, I, along with many others, lost a dear friend, Jennifer Souder, to a hiking accident. She was only 21 and engaged to be married. She was such an encouragment and teacher to me and many others. I still remember our weekend girls retreat together. I can still hear her voice and laugh after this many years.
As I sit here remebering these wonderful souls today, I realize how blessed I am with each day that I have. April is a month of rememberance for me in many ways. Count your blessings and always remember to thank God for each day no matter how 'horrible' it was. I am blessed with a wonderful husband, family and little 'peanut' and I can not be more thankful!!!
