sad day

Last night we went to the wake and today a funeral.  He was a friend, husband, and dad to 3 adorable children.  It broke my heart to see their children break down at the service.  The two older boys - so polite, good looking, and so sweet.  Their youngest is 9.  My favorite student when she was in my preschool class.  She was always taking care of the ones who were struggling in such a sweet, kind manor.  Oh.....it breaks my heart.  He died suddenly - massive heart attack - his son found him on their kitchen floor.  Reminds you how precious life is.   Today is another day to be sad but also glad.  Tonight is the graduation ceremony for my son's class, which he will be missing out on.  On the other hand, he isn't using drugs and, although, he can be a real stinker at times, he's clean and for that we are grateful.  Life is so precious.....we must not take it for granted.  I kissed my husband and told him how much I love him.  As much as he can get on my nerves, regarding how he handles our son sometimes....he's a wonderful, loving man.
