We Are Everywhere.

We have received so much love and support from our community as well as people all across the world. I don’t know how we would be able to carry through each day without so many special people always encouraging us through every step of the way. There are a few people who have been extraordinarily kind and loving towards us. One person in particular is Peg Byrd. I want to share something beautiful that she wrote for us.

We are the warmth and glow of the morning sun, 

We are the cool summer rain that falls from the sky,

We are the beautiful lyrics to your favorite songs, 

We are everywhere…Christopher, Kamryn and I. 

We are the smiles and laughs of those we love,

We are the endless tears that we see you cry, 

We are the games being watched that cannot be played, 

We are everywhere… Kamryn, Lindy and I. 

We are the soft wind you feel on your face, 

We are the precious moments captured in time, 

We are the rainbow that comes after the storm, 

We are everywhere… Christopher, Lindy and I. 

We are the laughter you hear in a silent room, 

We are the peace to the chaos of the question “why”,

We are the names being shared across the world,

We are everywhere …Christopher, Kamryn and I.

We are the chapters of a book that will never be read,

We are the victims of a man who chose to drink and drive,

We are the ornaments on a tree we cannot decorate,

We are everywhere..Kamryn, Lindy and I.

We are the memorial crosses on the side of the road,

We are Ray and Dawn’s children; the three youngest of nine,

We are the voice for the ones who can no longer speak,

We are waiting in Heaven… Christopher, Lindy and I.
