Today I went to the funeral of a 4 month old little boy. Tyler Rumley was the little boy of Jerrod and Jennifer Rumley, my sister and Trav's best friends. It was one of the hardest things I have ever had to witness in my whole entire life. My heart is so so heavy with grief and sorrow for this family...this is by far the toughest thing I am sure anybody could ever go through. I have so many questions for God and just feel so helpless. I wish there was something I could do to take this poor family's pain away or make them smile. One thing this tragic event has helped me to realize is how sacred minutes are. Every one of them. Today after the funeral, I came home and held my daughter. I had so much to do...our house was a mess from the weekend bbq we had, laundry had to be done, we are planning on going out of town for the 4th so I had to start planning for packing...I just came home and held my daughter. Why do we get so wrapped up in the chaos we call life where we can't just stop to cherish every single sacred minute we have with our loved ones? I know the Rumley's are longing for just another minute with their Tyler...let's not let ours pass us by.
