Remembering


We spent the evening with our dear friends Ken and Amy Thompson. They invited us over to join them in welcoming their new exchange daughter - PIA. Pia is from Germany and she seems to be a very sweet and fun loving person.

Pia reminds me of another fun loving and sweet German girl. It was a year ago that we were welcoming her and getting to know her. Little did we know that the nervous and exhausted girl that walked off that plane.....the girl in the red shoes.....would be such a blessing to us.

We miss you Judith - and we still cry. It's hard to let go of a piece of your heart. You brought new energy to our home, and new perspectives on life.

It will be awhile before it feels right that you aren't here.

She was/is sweet and I miss her too, even if we didn't get to live with her. I'm glad that she had you as a family! I know she is glad too. :)
