Remembering Sarah

Well, tomorrow is Sarah's birthday. She's been gone a little over eleven years now. Sometimes, it feels like yesterday, sometimes a lifetime. A few weeks ago we went to Mendocino. It's a beautiful little town we visited many years, just after we lost Sarah. I remember that day. Sitting close to the edge of the cliff and looking down. I was so devastated. I truly thought about just falling over the edge. But I didn't. Each day, the struggle to survive got a little easier, I cried a little less, and smiled a little more.
Today, there are more smiles, less tears. We think more of the joy Sarah was. Oh yes, we still miss her. But I truly believe God has helped us heal! And I am so thankful.
We will always love you Sarah Elizabeth Knighton, and we will always miss you. And we'll see you again! Happy Birthday Sweetie!
