I'm starting this blog because no matter how many people say "If you need anyone to talk to I'm here", I just can't seem to express to anyone whats going on inside.
About 3 weeks ago my beautiful niece, Ashley, died in a horrible boating accident. She was 11 years old. She was such a happy little girl and her love for the Lord still amazes me. She always had such a big smile on her face and she made everyone feel special. She was so creative and she loved to dance. Whenever she came out to visit us she always had big things planned for the time that she'd be here and half the time most of them fell through. She told me on her last visit here that I was everything she wanted to be when she grew up. How I wish I could have seen her grow up into a wonderful woman of the Lord, and I pray that I can live up to even half her expectation of wanting to be like me. I miss her smile, I miss her laugh, I miss her joy, I miss her beautiful face, I miss all the years that have been robbed from us, I miss her.
