This week has been such a whirlwind.. Our sister in law Linda passed away last week which was extremely unexpected. She left behind the most beautiful family, a husband, 3 kids and a newborn baby girl who is still in the NICU. {she is a little piece of heaven here on this earth} Although I didn't know Linda extremely well, I feel like I knew her through her kids. I love them more than life itself and Linda will always be with us through her children. We are so grateful to have the church in our lives and the peace of mind knowing that families can be together forever. What would we ever do without the plan of salvation... We had the kids stay with us all weekend and they are the most precious things. Each one of them has such an amazing personality. They are so smart and not to mention the cutest kids ever. This event has really put life into perspective and reminded us that the most important thing in the world is FAMILY. Nothing else seems to matter right now. As I was in school all day today the only thing I could think about is the next time I could give each one of those beautiful kids hugs and kisses and let them know how much their aunt Roz loves them. I know Mitch was feeling the same.. Thursday can't come soon enough so we can be with the kids again, they have a hard road ahead of them but I'm so grateful Mitch and I are lucky enough to be their Aunt+Uncle and be a big part of their lives. They are extremely lucky to have such a wonderful father. Brad is such an amazing husband and dad to those kids. Please keep Brad, Carter, Ryen, Jack and baby Charlie in your thoughts and prayers during this remarkably hard time.
