Reevaluate

I have spent all day celebrating because I'm done with all of my tests and papers for the next few weeks. My bronchitis is going away, I had nothing to do tonight, and I'm going to Chicago this weekend. Life was good.
And then I found out my favorite campers' mother passed away from cancer yesterday. By the end of one summer with these kids they feel like your own. I would step in front of any car to save them and I would hurt anyone that tried to hurt them. By the end of two summers they legitimately feel like part of your family. I've been there for four summers and I love all of those kids. I miss them when we aren't in camp and I would literally do absolutely anything for them. Some of them especially touch your heart and this family did that for me. Twin little boys and a beautiful young lady. The boys are too young to truly understand and the girl is going to have to be a little woman now. Their lives are going to change drastically and forever. Life is not fair and God allows things to happen that we cannot ever hope to understand. I know that everything happens for a reason, life happens like it's supposed to happen, but these kids have such a tough road. I can't imagine dealing with this at 23, these kids are 6 and 10. All I want to do right now is hug them and tell them it will all be ok...

About Me

My photo
I love pretty pictures and fashion, decorating and paper. I use Harry Potter pseudonyms for all of my friends because as of now they are skeptical of the blogging world. I expect when we grow and up and move away and have babies we will all have blogs because that seems to be the thing to do. And when that day comes I will laugh and gleefully answer all their questions about blogger, thankful that they can finally share in the obsession with me! And secretly, I will be very proud that my archives stretch back much farther then theirs. Pennies From Heaven is where I write everything. I put my favorite photographs there, my favorite fashions, thoughts, stories, and humorous conversations between Hermione and I.
