"Tomorrow is never guaranteed to anyone young or old. Today could be the last time to see your loved ones, which is why you musn't wait; do it today, in case tomorrow never arrives. I am sure you will be sorry you wasted the opportunity today to give a smile, a hug a kiss and that you were too busy to grant them their last wish."
Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Columbia, Nobel Prize Winner for literature 1982

It is hard sometimes to tell someone how you feel about them. It doesn't always fit into our busy lives. We may think of someone at times and think about how much we love, admire or cherish them, but we don't always have the opportunity to tell them.
My mother is the strongest and most loving person I have ever known. I admire her so much and what she does for her family. We are truly blessed to have you for our mother. I love you with all my heart.
Lara and Mara are the sweetest sisters anyone can ask for. They would do anything for you. I am so proud of their love for their children and their deep care for my family and our mom. I love them with all my heart! Thank you. forever, kara

OH my sweet Kara, this is an incredible tribute to your father, and it gives me such love and support. I love you with all that I am, and ever will be.
You know all that you have presented here is such an encouragement to others to truly LOVE and show love for those in their lives...that is so important.
I have just lost my sponsored child, Nancy, in Kenya. It is like loosing one of you sweet girls. I have become so attached to her, and her struggles to make a life for herself and her family. I am devastated. I know that our loving God has something much more loving planned for her, or this would not have happened. But knowing that does not take away the pain of loss, and separation.
That is the loss I suffer each day for our Honey. I know that our loving God is in control, he knows more, sees more, than we could envision.........so I trust Him. But that doesn't take away the hurt and pain of the separation from the best part of my life.
What you have said here is incredible. Thank you for all of this....it helps me "stay in touch" with the Loves of my life...Daddy, and each of you.........xoxooxxoMommaxoxoxoxoxox

I don't know what to say here today... I am so lost. I reach out for help, and all the ones I love are there for me....except one. The one. I slowly seem better some days, an then tonight I completely loose it......... I try oh I try to live on in your honor Honey, but I am so weak without You who was always my strenth and behind me. I could venture away, and try so many things......ONLY because I knew YOU were there for me.... only because YOU were there. So, now, So, I go on....or I try. Tonight I can't try. I can only cry.
I love you............. I love you!
