A Birthday Flower,

Dearest Judy, I hope you enjoyed the best birthday ever!!! Sorry I missed getting this card out. That has everything to do with my crazy schedule right now vs my love and appreciation for you. Prayers continue for you, Ray, and fam. I understand shock and grief better than most. What I can share is "open to the reality" - it's painful, ugly, while offering growth, strength, and faith. Your faith seems unshakeable. Mine still shakes around when my heart touches the horror of Chris's demise. Really God? WHY??? The why question is brutal and there is never an answer. SO excited to see you in a few days :) :) :) Sending you my heart, love, and infinite light, Jan
