We have,
had packers arrive,
had contracts signed,
had parcels wrapped,
had presents swapped and received.
We have,
said farewells,
finished school for the year,
had our last day of preschool ever!!
had a playgroup graduation.
We have,
had girls nights out,
final sleep overs,
drunk too much,
and stayed up too late most nights.
But this week was epic not because of all this,
This week we had to deal with the death of an amazing friend.
She was true to all. Kind. Honest. Open hearted and the most amazing friend to call your own.
Her smile was infectious and the 400 odd people who came to farewell her all thought the same.
She was brave beyond comprehension and dealt with all the hideousness that 'acute leukemia' threw at her.
I will miss you my dear dear friend, and can say with all my heart, I will never forget you. You taught me so much and I am truly grateful we had so many years of so many great memories together. Your boys will be cared for by many and know your love for them forever.........
Thank you Amanda, be at peace x
Oh this is just heartbreaking, I'm so sorry you have lost a most beautiful friend, it sounds like her precious light will burn brightly always though. Just wish life was so cruel at times xoxo
