Life has a way of sneaking up on me!  I had such a shock this morning when I was told that a dear friends husband tragically died the night before.  It shook me to the core and reminded me of what is really important.  This father and husband was so strong and now he is gone.  His wife has been and is such an inspiration to me because when I first met her years ago she battled cancer herself and won.  My heart is broken for her as I think about being without my partner. 
This has been a reminder of what is important and who I cherish in this world.  I made sure to send Keith off to work with a big hug!  I also stayed with the girls a little longer tonight when I put them to bed.  Life is precious and it feels even more so when things like this occur.
