Life

I wanted to devote my blog to fun stuff, like beauty products and Hollywood gossip...things that preposterous and stupid but might put a smile on your face. But I have get serious for just a moment.

I got some horrific news this morning, and I haven't been able to get it off my mind. A former co-worker of mine died Friday in a terrible car accident. She and her husband and 2 children (ages 10 and 1) were driving back from Colorado when they were hit by a tractor trailer outside of Amarillo, Texas. She and her husband were killed on impact and her 10-year old son died the next day after they took him off life support. The only survivor was their 1-year old son.

It's made really realize how fragile life is--in a fraction of a second this wonderful young family was gone, and that little baby boy is never going to know his parents or his older brother. It just doesn't seem fair. So many questions, no answers.

Cherish every moment you have. I think we all forget that when we get bogged down in the minutae of life. Embrace your family, tell them or at least show them that you love them every day.

God bless you Jessica, Curtis, Wolfie, and Augustus. My prayers are with you.
