Casting all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you...1 Peter 5:7

Dearest Michael~

I've decided I don't want to do this anymore...it is so hard to live my life and not share it with you...oh, I know you are here in spirit and in my heart, always, but I miss having you by my side and I miss your crazy sense of humor and I miss talking to you and I miss sharing things with you and I miss worrying with you and I miss the family things...I just miss you!!!

We had Easter without you and the boys were here and Sarah, and KLO and Chris, Bethany, Mylah and Steve and his girlfriend and her little boy ... and every moment I kept expecting to hear your voice...your laughter...your crazy dinner conversations and I know you would have enjoyed having those little ones at our table...

So many things happening...and you aren't here...I truly don't want to do it anymore...but I know that I will and I will honor you and all you stood for...but that doesn't mean I have to like it...

Forever love,
Karen

Cast thy burden on the Lord;
Only lean upon His word:
Thou shalt soon have cause to bless
His eternal faithfulness.
Ever in the raging storm
Thou shalt see His cheering form,
Hear His pledge of coming aid:
“It is I, be not afraid.”

Cast thy burden at His feet;
Linger at His mercy seat:
He will lead thee by the hand
Gently to the better land.
He will gird thee by His power,
In thy weary, fainting hour:
Lean, then, loving, on His word;
Cast thy burden on the Lord.
