This past week... well actually 6 days has been the most horrible week of my life that I can remember... My only sister suddenly and very unexpectedly passed away at the young age of 56. Although she seemed to be so healthy, and was at my house just 2 days before she passed, she never acted ill, looked ill, or mentioned that anything might be wrong.
There are no words to express the hole I feel in my heart knowing that I will not see her or her contagious smile again on this earth. I love her with all my heart, and hope that her children will know how much she loved them and worried about them. All she could talk about were her kids and her little grandkids, expecially the one that is due to join his parents here on earth aroung Christmastime.
I am glad that we have had the past few years to grow closer together and enjoy each other's company so much. She was so fun to teach how to piece quilts, and she was so excite each time she started a new one. I know that she would have made many many more quilts had her time here on earth allowed her to do so.
I miss my dear sister, but I am so grateful for the knowledge that I will be able to see her again in the next life.
MY suggestion to anyone reading this is to make sure you let your family know how much you love them everyday....I love my children, their spouses, and my grandkids. I also my step-children and their spouses and my step-grandchildren but unfortunately, I don't get to tell them all everyday how much I do love them. So I have to start making it a priority to let my children know everyday that I love them. I hope you do your family as well..
