My husband and I had just divorced and I moved into this tiny one bedroom apartment. I tried to make it feel like home for Ashleigh & my other daugher Mekenzie. Nicole was like my third daughter. She spent so many nights at our tiny home and we loved her. She would make you smile, she made us all happy during this sad time. Nicole loved butterflys. We would tell her they are flutterbys, not butterflys, because they flutter around you to say hello and then they go bye bye. Well, Nicole was very adventerous. She called one night to ask if Ashleigh could go to the senior party in the mountains. I told her absoultly not and where was her mom because she should not let you go, you girls are freshmans. Her mom had just remarried and her older sister was watching her. We ended the phone call and I told her I would come get her and she should stay with us. She would not listen. The next morning changed our lives forever. Nicole had died in a car wreck coming back that night. She was with 3 other boys. One of the other boy's passed away as well. She was the only sober person in that car that night. Ashleigh had a terrible (we all did) time accepting this. We were up at the high school that afternoon gathering with all of her friends. Ashleigh and I were sitting under a tree just talking, crying when all of the sudden a butterfly came fluttering by Ashleigh, gently landing on her shoulder. She sat there gracefully watching Ashleigh's big tear drops. Then in a wink of an eye she was gone. Ashleigh looked at me and smiled and I too, as we knew at that moment it was Nicole, letting Ashleigh know she loved her and that she was in a better place. We both were grateful for that moment and the flutterby, for it brought us peace. Nicole donated her heart, lungs and her liver. She saved three peoples lives. May you rest in Peace my dear Nicole. And the sweet flutterby.<br />Thank you for letting me share that with you.<br />TameraKennedyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10645321277091614628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1451337545306011433.post-35930407840574360832009-11-22T07:53:46.082-08:002009-11-22T07:53:46.082-08:00Such gorgeous finds!!!

(they even sent me a whole pack of free thread with my order) We don't have any crafty shops nearby so it can come in handy. Anyway, that is just the sweetest pic of you with the butterfly on your scarf. I picked up some yarn yesterday too, and a little "how to crochet" book. We'll see what happens! hehe<br />Happy Sunday to you!!!Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11651793857280121613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1451337545306011433.post-19823968232187142262009-11-22T06:33:44.642-08:002009-11-22T06:33:44.642-08:00Oh, you got so many good things!!!!!
