Today is not about me. It is about a friend who lost her mother just a few days ago.
Katrina, one of our bride's maids, the woman who was there when Ashley & I met, lost her mom the other day.


She could use some prayers. SO, if you were someone who was saying a prayer for me every once in a while, please use the next one for her.


I met Katrina's mom & I can tell you there were few people in this world with more life in them and more "spit and vinegar". Like most, I am sure we will remember her through rose colored glasses; the good is a little better than it really was and the bad will probably be minimized. But....even accounting for that, I can tell you that the world is a little less fun today without her mother around.


Katrina needs prayers as anyone would who lost a parent, but Katrina is special in her own right & she has one of the healthiest attitudes of anyone I have ever met who lost a parent.


I got to visit her the other day & when she looked at me and said, "Mom is in a better place" she wasn't just saying it....she BLIEVED it, she just KNEW it.


Katrina showed me true faith that day....if she never reads this blog, she may never know that, but she showed me what true, honest faith is. For that reason, if anyone needs a prayer, it is her.....she would know more than most that it would be heard.


Good night & God bless.
