For Zachary James Pratt

Hey Zach , I know I said that my next post would be cheery, but life doesn't always go as planned. Aunt Shari's dad passed away last night. She has endured 3 horrific losses in a year, more than any one person should have to go through in a lifetime, but for some reason she is being tested and is having to manage despite the pain. I thank God every day that my family is safe and healthy as you never know what lies ahead. This is why I hope with all my heart that we can reconcile before something like this happens to our family. No one ever wants to live with regrets and there are so many to consider if we don't take steps to change what has happened. Please let me know if you are hearing and seeing my messages to you my love and give me some sign that perhaps there is a chance we can somehow move past the pain. I love you with all my heart and miss you every moment of every day. Love always, Mom xox

Hi Zach, I don't think I told you about Aunt Shari losing her mom last May. Can't believe it, as she was a second mother to me. You didn't know her very well, so maybe that's why I didn't mention it. Anyway, now Aunt Shari's dad is very ill with cancer and it does not look good. She has already lost a mother and husband in the past year so I hope things with her dad will turn out ok. It all just makes me think of how much time is passing by and how Nana and Granddad are getting older. They are doing really well, but you never know. I treasure my relationship with my parents so much and I would be devasted if anything were to happen to them. You are missing out on two wonderful people my son and I hope some day soon you will recognize the importance of their presence in your life. Tragedy can strike at anytime and then it is too late. This goes for our relationship as well as well as yours with your brother Cody It can all be gone in an instant just like Uncle Be...
