Hard Week!

This has been a very different week for our family. On Sunday afternoon, I found out that a co-worker at Rubbermaid had passed away. This was a very shocking, and my office was completely devastated by the news. So, needless to say Monday was very tough for all of us at work, but they did a very good job of dealing with this tough time.

Then on Monday morning, I got a call from my mom saying that my Uncle Joe was in the hospital in Siloam in ICU. Uncle Joe is the youngest of 8 kids on my dad's side. This was very hard to hear, but thought that everything was going to be fine. So, as I was on my way to Siloam that afternoon to see him, I received a call letting me know that he had passed away. This was so hard to hear, and I thought I was going to be sick. I was in Gentry at the time, so I turned around and headed to Dane and Amber's house (Chris' sister's house). So, poor Dane had to be there to console me, I apologized over and over again. Anyway, Uncle Joe is the first on of my dad's siblings to die, and is a very tough time for our family as we are all VERY CLOSE. Uncle Joe has 2 kids, a son that is graduating in 2 weeks, and a daughter that is 13.

My whole point in telling you all this, is I am wanting each of you to say a quick prayer for my co-workers family and my family. All I can say, is that I am definitely ready for this week to be over!
